Photography General Requirements

When taking photos on properties, there are a few settings and requirements to be aware of.  

Phone Settings

Modern smartphones like to take high resolution portrait style photography.  This can be a challenge because taking photography of a residence typically requires adjusting both the settings of the camera, and resizing the images on the phone prior to upload.  

Zoom Out! (Set the zoom to .5 for a wide angle view)
