Portrait & Headshot Photography to run before you list

Constraints
What shapes the shoot
- •Rooms need to be dressed at the vendor level, not staged professionally — the shoot is booked once furniture is in place.
- •Portal images resize hard; framing is planned for the thumbnail crop as well as the full view.
- •External weather window matters — the exterior hero is scheduled to the best-lit hour available.

What comes back
- Portal-ready hero exterior
- Living room and kitchen wides
- Master bedroom
- Garden or outdoor space
- Optional aerial for context
