Photo, drone & video
Snap2Close
Snap2Close is a real estate photography and media company working in the Phoenix metro. It shoots HDR photography and a hand-blended style it calls Synergy Flash, plus twilight and golden hour photos, drone stills and video, MLS and social walkthrough videos, 2D and 3D floor plans, interactive floor plans, Matterport and Zillow 3D tours, virtual staging, and 3ds Max virtual renovation.
Orders are placed through the site's schedule screen or the client portal at view.snap2close.com, where each photographer's availability and travel fee appear before booking. The travel fee is set by the photographer, based on mileage from the photographer's residence to the listing, and the company states it passes that payment straight through. Photos, CubiCasa tours and 3D tours are delivered the next day; videos and Pro Interactive Floor Plans take two days, and Saturday shoots are delivered Monday. Packages include a 2D floor plan, and the Gold, Platinum and Titanium packages add a 3D floor plan.
The company was founded in October 2016 and says it has completed more than 7,000 photoshoots in the Phoenix area for over 1,900 Realtors, agents and management companies, including commercial clients, national homebuilders and multifamily managers. It is a Zillow Elite Photographer and says it has delivered over 1,500 Zillow 3D Tours. Every photographer must complete an in-house certification program, and drone work is flown by FAA-licensed pilots. Support is staffed by phone, text and email seven days a week.
Package pricing by market is published on the site's Prices page, and commercial work is billed hourly. The listed business address is in Scottsdale, and the stated coverage area is Phoenix, Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Glendale, Peoria, Tempe, Surprise and Buckeye; properties outside it are handled by request, so confirm travel fees before booking.
