Twilight photography and virtual staging
Turn a daylight exterior into a warm twilight image, or furnish an empty room so buyers can picture living there. Real twilight sessions are available for showcase homes.
ABOUT THE SERVICE
The exterior at dusk, and empty rooms furnished.
A twilight exterior makes a listing stand out in search results, and staging helps buyers picture how they'd use an empty room. Virtual twilight is edited from your daylight photos, with no second visit. For a real dusk session, we come back at sunset for 6 to 10 photos. Virtual staging furnishes empty rooms, and the unstaged versions are included.

Do you shoot real twilight photos or virtual twilights?
Both. A real twilight is a separate session photographed at dusk. A virtual twilight is a daytime exterior photo edited to show the home at dusk.
Is a twilight photo included in my package?
A virtual twilight is included in our packages. A real twilight session is a separate add-on.
Are twilight photos allowed on the MLS?
Stellar MLS, which covers Polk County, permits twilight photos as long as lighting isn't added where it doesn't exist and the sunset or sunrise reflects where the sun really sets or rises. That is the line we hold on every twilight we deliver: could the real sun and the home's real lights produce this view.
Is a twilight session part of a reshoot?
No. Twilight is always its own session, never part of a reshoot. If you'd like a twilight after your listing shoot, book it as an add-on.
What is virtual staging?
Virtual staging digitally adds furniture, bedding and décor to photos of empty or sparse rooms. It's ordered per photo, so you choose exactly which rooms are staged. Every virtually staged photo is labelled as virtually staged.
Is virtual staging allowed on the MLS, and do I need to disclose it?
Yes, virtual staging is allowed on Stellar MLS when it's disclosed. Stellar asks you to put 'Virtually staged' in the photo description, tick the virtually staged field, and start the public remarks with 'One or more photo(s) was virtually staged.' Florida's advertising rules also apply to your social posts, website and flyers, so disclose it wherever the photo appears.
How are virtually staged photos labelled?
In your gallery, every staged photo carries '(Virtually Staged)' after the room name, such as 'Living Area (Virtually Staged)'. That label stays with the gallery, not with a downloaded file, so add your own disclosure when you upload staged photos to the MLS or anywhere else.
Will virtual staging change the property itself?
No. Staging adds furniture and décor a buyer can see through; it never adds or changes windows, doors, fixtures or anything structural. Every staged photo is reviewed at full size against the original before it reaches you.
Is removing clutter the same as virtual staging?
No. Virtual staging adds something that wasn't in the room. Removing everyday items that really were there, such as clutter or a stray cord, is a different edit.
Will staged photos match the rest of my gallery?
Yes. Staged photos are delivered as JPEGs at the same resolution as the other photos in your gallery, with no watermark or vendor marks.
