Real estate photography for Montclair and Essex County

Montclair and the surrounding Essex County towns — Glen Ridge, Bloomfield, Nutley, Verona, Cedar Grove, West Orange and the Caldwells — are full of older Colonials, Victorians and Tudors. Those homes sell on character, and the photos have to show it without hiding the layout.

Many of these homes are larger and older, so floor plans matter more than usual: buyers want to know how the rooms connect before they fall for the woodwork.

Character homes, shot carefully

We keep original details — moldings, built-ins, fireplaces, stained glass — in the frame and correctly exposed, and shoot porches and gardens at the time of day they look best. Twilight (real or virtual) works especially well on these facades.

For larger homes we recommend a 2D or 3D floor plan with the photos so the layout is clear online.

Drone and airspace in Montclair

Much of Essex County is near Newark Liberty’s controlled airspace, so aerials depend on the address and need FAA authorization. We check before confirming. Note that Essex County parks restrict drone launches, so we fly from the property itself.

MLS-ready delivery

Essex County listings commonly go on NJMLS and GSMLS. Every gallery includes MLS-ready sizes plus full-resolution and social versions.

Montclair questions

What package works best for an older Montclair home?

Most agents pair full HDR photos with a floor plan and a couple of twilight images. Compare packages on our pricing page or book a quick call if you want a recommendation.

Can you shoot the gardens and porch at their best time of day?

Yes — tell us at booking which side of the house gets the best light and we’ll schedule around it where the calendar allows.

Do you offer twilight photos?

Yes, both on-site twilight and virtual twilight. Virtual twilight turns a daytime exterior into a dusk image and is the faster, lower-cost option.
