"Had a studio listed for 3 weeks with zero applications. The photos were dark and the room looked tiny. Brightened everything up and removed the moving boxes - got 12 applications in the first weekend." @LandlordLife

Describe what you need

When Things Go Wrong
Room looks unrealistically large
Why: The AI may have altered perspective, making the room appear bigger than reality.
Brightening naturally makes rooms look a bit larger - this is fine. Distorted proportions are not.
Wall color changed after lighting fix
Why: Color correction shifted the paint color.
Name the wall color if you know it: 'the walls are eggshell white' helps accuracy.
Windows look blown out or too bright
Why: Brightening the room over-exposed the window areas.
brighten the room but keep the window view natural, balance indoor and outdoor light
HDR-style balance between room and window view looks most natural.
Furniture removal left artifacts
Why: Removing large items from a room can leave visual artifacts.
For complex removals, a second pass focused on cleanup areas improves results.
Room looks too sterile
Why: Over-cleaning made the space look like a hospital.
A little warmth makes rental photos more inviting than cold perfection.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it deceptive to brighten dark apartment photos?
No. Brightening shows the room as it looks with good natural light. Most apartment photos are too dark because phone cameras underexpose indoor scenes. You are showing reality in better conditions, not creating a false impression.
Can I remove tenant belongings from photos?
Yes. If you are listing a unit that will be empty at move-in, removing current tenant items shows what the renter will actually get. Just make sure the room looks as it will when they move in.
How do I make small rooms look their best?
Bright lighting makes rooms appear more spacious. Photograph from the doorway for the widest angle. Remove clutter that makes spaces feel cramped. These are honest techniques that show the room at its best.
Should I edit every room in the apartment?
Yes. Edit all rooms, kitchen, bathroom, and any outdoor space with similar brightness and style. A consistent listing looks professional and thorough. Renters want to see every space.

Yes. EditThisPic works on any real estate photos - apartments, houses, condos, townhouses, and commercial spaces.
