Austin Townhome, Drone and Twilight

A Townhome Where The Setting Does Half The Work

This is a two story townhome in an established Austin community, and a lot of what makes it appealing sits outside the front door: a pool, shaded lawns, a fire pit and mature oak trees shading the walkways.

Shooting the unit and the community together

Inside, the frames follow the floor plan. The walnut finish galley kitchen with its open shelves leads the set, then the living room with French doors onto a leafy patio, then the upstairs bedroom with dark painted beams and a balcony that sits among the treetops.

Outside, the brief was the shared spaces. The pool, the picnic lawn and the fire pit circle were each photographed as places to spend time, not just amenities on a list, because for a townhome they are part of the home.

Drone frames for context

Drone photography answered the questions ground photos cannot. One frame looks straight down on the pool courtyard and shows how the townhomes wrap around it. Another rises above the trees and puts the downtown Austin skyline on the horizon.

The pool was also finished as a virtual twilight: the daytime photograph keeps every real detail, and the edit adds the evening sky and warm light.

Everything that was delivered

Along with the photography, the order included a Zillow 3D tour and floor plans, all delivered in the same gallery link.
