Why do real estate photos all have “that look”?

1.12K viewsOtherTechnology

When scrolling through galleries of photos for residential (and some commercial) properties, it always seems like the perspective is off. But each picture seems a little differently off – almost like a fisheye lens, but not. What are they using to do that and why has that “look” become industry standard, even when we all know the pictures aren’t true to life?

I’ve moved 8 times, and sold a home each time. The reason. Why the perspective is off, is because the photographer is trying to make each room look as big as possible. The goal is for people to look at the pics and say, wow, that home looks great and has tons of good space. Let’s look at that one. I’ve had photographers move furniture so they can cram the camera in a corner just so they make to room look a tiny bit larger.
