Chicago Real Estate Photography

Vistabee is a real estate photography business that provides full service real estate photography. Whether you need a professional real estate photographer, videographer, floorplans, Matterport or aerial property photos, our 24/7 platform gives you access to the best real estate photography professionals in Chicago.

As a realtor you are used to working with freelance real estate photographers to create great Real Estate photos and you will no doubt be familiar with many of the challenges that poses. Availability can be spotty, photographers (we call them Shooters) can be difficult to reach when they are busy. Edits can take a long time, particularly when photographers are out on other appointments. Something often happens causing cancellations and leaving you without a property photographer.
At VistaBee we have one of the largest teams of real estate photographers in Chicago, so you are not reliant on just one individual. This gives you flexibility when scheduling. When you have a difficult tenant or seller we will be able to accommodate their schedule.
When you need real estate photography, floor plans, video, Matterport, drone photography or virtual staging, we have got you covered. Our packages are fully customizable so you only pay for what you need. Whether it's a studio apartment or a luxury townhouse, you can get what you require.

If you are active on social media, why not take advantage of our video offer which includes a social media optimized version. This is ideal for Instagram, TikTok and Facebook reels and can help you drive additional interest in your listing. We can also help you with an Agent Profile Video, where you can deliver your best pitch in an easily digestible format and attract new listings.
All our photography is full HDR, so the interiors are perfectly exposed, nice and bright, and you can see the window views clearly. If you prefer not seeing out the window (which can sometimes detract) we are flexible and will accommodate for this.

We understand things can be fluid, so we have a generous cancellation / reschedule policy. As long as we have reasonable notice (before end of business hours the day before) you can reschedule at no extra cost.
If the beautifully sunny day that was forecast suddenly turns into a storm we are happy to reschedule. Our priority is to get you the best possible result.
We are also experienced in unattended shoots, so if you're unable to be there yourself we are happy to have the superintendent let us in, collect keys at the front desk, or meet the seller or tenant. You can leave instructions for the photographer on the order page, both for access and any particular angles you want. If the building has heightened security and requires named insurance that can be arranged (may have an additional cost).

It is hard to get the absolute best Real estate agent photos. So, can we fix it in post production? You want a photographer that has a great eye and captures those vertical lines, and that shoots in HDR to maximize dynamic range. But, nothing is perfect the first time round and often fixes are needed.
At VistaBee we have a market leading platform and team for post production. We can remove undesired objects from photos. Within reason this is done inclusive in the price.
If the weather is not ideal we replace overcast skies with blue skies by default. Is the property empty, or full of ugly furniture? Consider virtual staging!
Tree outside looking sad in winter? We can add some green leaves. Is the beautiful swimming pool drained? We can add water. Lake looking a bit green? We can change the colour for you.
We understand the importance of great water views, whether it’s the ocean, a river or even just a pool.
Our platform enables you to access your files at any time, and you can request changes there and then, which our post production team will complete as soon as possible. No need to call or email anyone, it's all there at the click of a button.
VistaBee offers 24 and 48 hour SLAs. Within 24 working hours of placing an order we will offer you a scheduled slot and this will be no later than 48 hours of the order time. Usually we are even quicker. Your photos and videos are turned around in post-production within 24 working hours of the shoot.
