Twilight Photography

When it comes to attracting buyers online, not all photos perform equally. According to Zillow, twilight real estate photos receive significantly more clicks and engagement than standard daytime shots. Why? Because twilight photography highlights a property in its best light—literally—creating warm, inviting images that stand out in a crowded market.

At Stellar House, we specialize in professional twilight photography that elevates your listing, sparks interest, and draws buyers in.

Why Twilight Photography Matters

  • Proven Results: Listings with twilight photos get more clicks, more saves, and more showings.

  • Emotional Impact: The glow of sunset light combined with interior lighting creates a cozy, welcoming feel.

  • Highlight Features: Pools, patios, outdoor living areas, and landscaping look their best under evening skies.

  • Stand Out Online: Twilight photos stop buyers from scrolling past and encourage them to explore the listing further.

Our Process

Twilight shoots are carefully timed and typically scheduled around sunset and blue hour. We photograph both the exterior architecture and key outdoor spaces while the home’s interior lights are glowing. This balance of natural and artificial light creates images that feel cinematic and memorable.

Each image is then hand-edited to ensure:

  • A balanced sky with rich colors

  • Warm interior glows visible through the windows

  • Crisp, detailed architecture and landscaping

  • A polished, professional finish optimized for MLS and print
