  4. 04 · The shoot: a kitchen, set up right. Direct the frame. Switch on the pendants, open the blinds, and drop the camera to counter height. Then take the frame. Why counter height: a level camera near the counters keeps the cabinets square and shows the counter surfaces the way the room reads in person.

  6. 06 · Delivered. The download link arrives within 48 hours: up to 25 edited images, ready for the listing.
