Ok, it is done. I’ve spent the last 45 minutes traipsing around my house and yard like the wannabe paparazzi that I am… and I must say, I do believe I’ve done a much better job of photographing my house than the Real Estate people have. I’ve taken HEAPS of photos, for my own record, and to show you the WHOLE house.
Admittedly my photo’s don’t have the spa uncovered and bubbling like theirs do, but then I didn’t have an assistant. They did… Me!
So I’ll leave it up to you to decide who’s photos are better, mine or theirs. To be fair though I was using a wide angle lens. But they also had better lighting as they shot at midday. So there were handicaps on both sides.
Feel free to leave a comment to let me know what you think, there’s nothing like an ego stroke for ones confidence.
The bonus of this whole session is that for the last 3 years, the only photos we’ve had to show for ourselves for our home, were the ones we took when the previous owners will still in occupance, and between you and I, their taste in decor was pretty vile.
Anyway…
The links are below, you be the judge.
Original photos that we took when the old owners were still here, the week before we actually bought the house. There’s also a copy of the houseplans if you’re interested enough to look.
The real estate agents photos taken this afternoon. These photos are temporarily unavailable. I’ll reactivate soon.
My photos taken in the last hour. Having just looked at them, the light was crap, they’re a bit dark, so will probably take more tomorrow.
By the way, the messy room is Marks study, its always been a mess, and believe it or not, even now is cleaner than it has ever been. He’s requested I take more photos once he’s finished cleaning. I don’t think we have that much time left, as its taken 3 years to get to this level.
I’m going to miss my house! I do hope it goes to nice people.



ROFL – 153 photos… I think you missed a spot round the back. Not sure you have enough photos there

Nice photos! The new owners will be very proud of their purchase.
Anyhoo, I was wondering if you had a picture of the “Australian Think Tank”, then I discovered image 8644
Toodooloo!

haha it’s okay, I’ll pass on the Barcelonas… I’m a poor student who needs to simply concentrate on needs and not wants at the moment. =)
