    “First contact with digital photography was in 2001 and it changed my future career a lot. For several years, I was shooting music events for couple magazines, corporate events for PR agencies and doing some product photography for graphic studios.

    For four years, I was also working in a company where we run couple websites about photography, doing camera reviews, teaching classes about digital photography and product photography. When the company started doing photo expeditions for amateur photographers all around the world, I organized and let couple of them to South Africa and Namibia.

    In 2008 I took a break and worked in IT industry (project management and business development), while still doing photography jobs on side.

    With my fiancée, we decided we want to start our own company and this is when Wild Dog Digital came to life, named after African wild dog. A very interesting animal which caught my attention in South Africa."

    How would you describe your photographic style?

    In real estate, I always try to create an experience where potential buyer can go through a listing, visualize the layout and see the main features. I prefer natural lighting since it is what the buyer will be buying.

    Even though our photos go through some complicated processing, our goal is to have the photo as natural as possible. Of course, we listen to our clients and we can modify our process to fit their needs.

    Style changes depending on who am I taking the photo for. I personally love to watch the world and nature through the lens and capture its moments, as raw and true as possible. When I work for clients, I talk to them and want to figure out what they like.

    What's your standard workflow when doing real estate photography, from arrival at the location through to delivery of the images?

    Our workflow starts even before arriving at the location. We send a checklist how to prepare a listing for a shoot, so the agent and owners have time to make the listing ready.

    After arrival, we go through the space and check if anything should be changed, moved or fixed. That also helps to build mental image of the property and thing about what should be shot and how. Even though the shoot can be chaotic due to owners moving things around, we always rearrange all photos. The final selection begins with front yard, goes through living and family rooms, kitchen, master bedroom, and the rest, ending with back yard. Community photos when possible.

    Photos are delivered next business day through Dropbox in two versions, full resolution and MLS ready.

    How important is Photoshop or digital editing to your process?

    We have to do digital editing since digital cameras see our world differently than we do through naked eye. The main goal of using Photoshop or Lightroom is to get natural looking photos.

    Real estate photography is full of shadows and bright spots, so we fine-tuned our process to deal with it and provide compelling photos.

    What do you enjoy most about photographing real estate, architecture and the built environment?

    I love the challenge. Real estate is tough industry. Fast moving, very demanding, very competitive. But it can be rewarding and it is a pleasure to see how our work is helping agents and owners to reach their goals.

    What has been the most memorable photo shoot you've ever done?

    Almost any twilight shoot with a city view. Mother nature and 15 minutes of incredible light helping to sell a house.

    What has been the funniest thing that's ever happened on a real estate photo shoot?

    Once a neighbor called a police when I was shooting a twilight, next to his house. He didn't believe "my story" and it was "too dark to do any photos". Camera, tripod and fully lit house didn't convince him. This was the last time I shot twilight without agent or homeowners being there with me.

    What advice would you give to someone in Las Vegas who was selling their home?

    To hire us 🙂 ... or any other professional photographer. Never do your own photos, for many reasons.

    What do you like to do away from work?

    Travel, listen to music, watch movies and series, play with our dogs, learning new things, planning (anything)
