We shoot year-round in Minnesota. Fresh snow looks beautiful! If the weather is dangerous (blizzard), we reschedule for free. Our Blue Sky Guarantee includes winter days—we turn grey skies blue.

We provide a comprehensive "Pre-Shoot Checklist" PDF in your confirmation email that you can forward to your sellers to ensure the home is picture-perfect.

Bloomington, MN

Bloomington listings live or die on the kitchen.

Bloomington is the largest non-Minneapolis-or-St.-Paul city in Minnesota. The bulk of our volume here runs $350K–$650K single-family, an established suburban demographic, families upsizing within the city or first-time buyers stepping out of an apartment. The buyer in this price tier scrolls past listings on Zillow at 3 photos per second. The hero photo and the kitchen are doing 80% of the work.

The Bloomington submarkets.

West Bloomington (55438). Higher-end suburban, $500K–$1M+ executive single-family. Larger lots, mature trees, strong school district premium.
Hyland Park. Established mid-tier with park-adjacent homes commanding a slight premium.
River Valley (55425). South Bloomington, value tier $350K–$500K. Faster shoots, Bronze + Gold dominant.
East Bloomington (55420). Mid-tier residential, multi-property investor activity. Often booked as multi-property shoot days.

The kitchen is the hero. We treat it that way.

For a $400K Bloomington listing, the kitchen photo is the listing’s primary value driver. The Zillow scroll algorithm shows the hero shot, the kitchen, and one bathroom. If those three frames don’t hold the buyer for two seconds, you’ve lost them.

Our calibration:

· Kitchen island composed centrally with depth-of-field controlled to lead the eye
· Counter detail (countertop reflections, faucet, fixtures) shown clean — not staged
· Time-of-day matters: morning light hits Bloomington kitchens differently than afternoon. We schedule accordingly.
· Hidden pantry, double oven, prep sink — we treat each as its own frame, not a tag-along

Bloomington questions.

What’s the most-booked package for Bloomington listings?

Gold ($599). The pattern-interrupt loops and Single Property Site move the listing on social meaningfully better than Bronze; the cost difference is $209 against a $400K listing.

Multi-property investor shoots?

Standard. We run 3–4 property days for Bloomington investor agents weekly. Partner pricing kicks in at 8 shoots/month.

Do you shoot West Bloomington luxury listings?

Yes. The $1M+ West Bloomington tier gets the Gold + real twilight package by default. Platinum for the larger-lot homes where drone reveal is meaningful.
