What's included in a Grand Rapids real estate photography package?

HDR Interiors & Exteriors

Every room shot with HDR processing — blended exposures that handle bright windows and dark corners without sacrificing detail. Clean, bright, MLS-ready.

Real Twilight Photography

Blue-hour twilight shoots during the actual golden window — not virtual edits added in post. Real twilight listings consistently outperform daytime-only shots on views and engagement.

Aerial Drone Photography

Licensed Part 107 drone photography available as an add-on. Overhead shots for large lots, acreage, waterfront, and neighborhood context. Full FAA compliance.

2D Floor Plans

Clean, dimensioned 2D floor plans included in the Showcase and Signature packages. Buyers who see floor plans spend more time on listings and make stronger offers.

Social Media Graphics

Vertical cuts and formatted social graphics for Instagram, Facebook, and Reels — ready to post the same day you get your gallery. Included in Showcase and Signature.

24-Hour Delivery

Every package includes next-day delivery via Pixieset. Shoot today, listing live tomorrow. No waiting on edits — your timeline is our timeline.

Why Elzinga Creative
01 We shoot real twilight

Most photographers offer virtual twilight edits — a daytime exterior darkened and color-graded in Photoshop. We shoot during the actual blue-hour window. Buyers can tell the difference, and so can your engagement numbers.

02 24-hour turnaround, guaranteed

Your listing timeline shouldn't wait on an editor. Every package ships next-day via Pixieset — shoot Monday, listing live Tuesday. We've never missed a delivery window.

03 West Michigan, all of it

Grand Rapids, Wyoming, Kentwood, Walker, Grandville, East Grand Rapids, Ada, Cascade, Caledonia, Byron Center, Forest Hills, Lowell, Rockford, Belmont, Jenison, Hudsonville, Holland, Zeeland, Coopersville — we cover the full market without travel fees for listings within approximately 25 miles of downtown Grand Rapids.

Real Estate Photography FAQ — Grand Rapids

I haven't worked with you before. How do I know the photos will be good?

Fair question. Every shoot is the same photographer (Kaden), the same clean true-to-life editing style, and the same 24-hour turnaround, so your listings look consistent, not like a roster of strangers. Want to see recent work first? Text me at (616) 258-4578 and I’ll send a full gallery before you book a thing.

How fast will I get my real estate photos?

All packages include 24-hour delivery. Your MLS-ready images are professionally edited and delivered the next day via Pixieset so you can get your listing live fast.

Do you shoot real twilight or virtual twilight?

Real blue-hour twilight — not virtual edits. We schedule the shoot to hit the actual golden window at dusk. According to real estate industry research, twilight listings receive significantly more online views than daytime-only shots — some studies put the lift as high as 300%.

Is drone photography available?

Yes. Licensed Part 107 aerial drone is a $125 add-on on Essential and Showcase, and it’s included in Signature. Especially impactful for large lots, waterfront, acreage, and listings where neighborhood context matters.

Do you offer 3D virtual tours?

Yes. We shoot both Zillow 3D Home and Matterport-style walkthroughs as a $100 add-on to any photo package, captured during the same shoot as your stills and delivered MLS-ready. For higher-end and luxury listings, a premium fully-hosted Matterport Pro tour runs $250–$295, custom-quoted to the property.

What areas do you cover for real estate photography?

All of West Michigan — Grand Rapids, Wyoming, Kentwood, Walker, Grandville, East Grand Rapids, Ada, Cascade, Caledonia, Byron Center, Forest Hills, Lowell, Rockford, Belmont, Jenison, Hudsonville, Holland, Zeeland, Coopersville, and throughout Kent and Ottawa counties. No travel fee for listings within approximately 25 miles of downtown Grand Rapids.

How much does real estate photography cost?

Essential starts at $245 — HDR interiors and exteriors, 25–35 images, 24-hour delivery. Showcase is $325 and adds real twilight, a 2D floor plan, and social graphics. Signature is $495 and includes everything plus golden hour exteriors and a 60-second listing Reel.

How do I book?

Two ways, both fast. Pick a time on the booking page, or send the listing details and I’ll text you the next open dates, usually within a few hours. A 50% deposit holds your date, balance due before the gallery is delivered. Or just text me at (616) 258-4578.
