Why Tours Need Editing
A still photo gets looked at. A 360 tour gets moved through, and that changes what breaks it. A buyer spins the living room, clicks into the kitchen, and the kitchen is a stop darker and half a step cooler. Nothing in either sphere is wrong on its own — but the transition tells them the tour was assembled rather than produced.
Then they look down, because everyone looks down, and there is the tripod, and sometimes the photographer's shoes. They tilt up and the seam runs straight through the feature wall. They face the window and it is pure white, which quietly removes the view the property is priced on.
Those are the four things we fix on every position: seams placed where nothing draws the eye, the nadir patched with matching floor, exposure and white balance matched across the whole property, and windows pulled back until the view outside is visible from inside the sphere. From $2 per pano input, delivered in whatever format your viewer ingests.
Want a flat wide image rather than a navigable sphere? That is panorama stitching, priced per finished panorama. Costing a whole listing? The real estate photo editing cost guide sets every service against sourced market rates.
What Is Included
Bracketed rows merged and aligned into a single seamless sphere, with the seam placed where nobody looks rather than across the feature wall.
The tripod and your own feet cleaned out of the floor beneath the camera, and the nadir patched with matching flooring instead of a logo plate.
Every room in the tour brought to the same brightness and white balance, so moving between spaces does not flash dark, then bright, then yellow.
Blown windows pulled back so the view outside is visible from inside the sphere — the single thing that separates a tour that sells from one that looks flat.
Delivered equirectangular, as cube faces, or in whatever your tour platform ingests. Tell us the platform and we will match its spec.
Rooms, hallways, gardens, terraces and street frontage, edited as one consistent set so the whole walkthrough holds together.
When To Use It
How It Runs
The bracketed frames from each shooting position, or the already-stitched spheres if your camera does that in-body. Both are fine.
Matterport, Kuula, CloudPano, a custom viewer, or a plain equirectangular file. The output spec differs, and we would rather match it than have you re-export.
Rows merged, seams hidden, nadir patched, windows recovered, and every position in the property matched to the same exposure and white balance.
Back in 24 to 48 hours. Spin it in your own viewer — if a seam shows or a room is out of step with the rest, say so and we will fix it.
Common Questions
360 tour editing starts at $2 per pano input — that is per shooting position, not per finished tour. A typical three-bedroom property is eight to twelve positions, so most tours land in the $16 to $24 range.
A panorama is a flat wide image you look at, delivered as a single finished file and priced from $3 per panorama. A 360 tour is a navigable sphere you move around inside, priced from $2 per pano input because a tour is many positions. If you want one image for a listing, you want a panorama.
Yes, on every position. The nadir is patched with matching flooring rather than covered with a logo plate, because everyone looks down at some point and a branded disc is the moment a tour stops feeling like a room.
We deliver equirectangular files, cube faces, or whatever your viewer ingests — Matterport, Kuula, CloudPano and custom viewers included. Name the platform when you send the job and we will match its spec so you do not have to re-export.
Yes, if you shot brackets. Window recovery is the single biggest difference between a tour that sells the view and one that shows a white rectangle where the view should be. Send the bracketed frames rather than a single exposure where you can.
No. Send the already-stitched spheres and we will work from those. We can still match exposure across rooms, remove the tripod, and recover highlights — we just cannot re-place a seam that is already baked in.
That is the point of editing the tour as a set rather than position by position. Brightness and white balance are matched across the whole property, so moving from the hallway into the kitchen does not jump a stop.
Yes. Send one position and we will edit it free, with no card required. Load it into your own viewer and spin it before you send a whole property.
A tour is usually one line on a listing order. These are the rest.
