Venue Photography timed for the go-live

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.
Angles
