National City Real Estate Photographer

Yes, and they deserve a different approach than a modern tract home. We shoot the millwork, porch detail, and period trim as deliberate subjects rather than incidental background, and we light interiors to hold the warmth of original wood instead of flattening it. Heritage Square and the Brick Row area are worth photographing properly.

Photography starts at $225 for homes under 1,500 sq ft, which fits much of the local stock. Larger homes are $275 (1,500–3,000 sq ft), $335 (3,000–5,000), and $395 (5,000+), and every shoot is full coverage with no photo caps. 3D tours from $225, expedited delivery $145.

In most of the city, yes, with LAANC authorization — National City sits under the San Diego International (SAN) Class B shelf and near NAS North Island (NZY). Our Part 107 pilots file it in advance at no extra charge. We do not fly the Naval Base San Diego or port frontage, and we will say so upfront rather than quoting an aerial we cannot deliver.

Yes. Investor-facing galleries are a different job than owner-occupant marketing — unit-by-unit coverage, condition documentation, and exterior and parking context matter more than lifestyle framing. Tell us the audience when you book and we will shoot to it.
