Summary
We photograph apartment blocks and multi-unit buildings in London using a layout-first, volume-efficient process. We shoot a “hero” flat for each layout to set the lighting, angles, and style, then replicate those compositions across identical units for a consistent, premium portfolio. Each flat includes 15 professionally edited high-resolution images, plus communal areas and exterior shots, with straight verticals and clean, bright results. Images are delivered quickly (often within 24 hours) in organised batches, with optional rush turnaround available.
If you manage a block of flats, a multi-unit Airbnb building, serviced apartments, or a portfolio of near-identical units, photography isn’t just about “nice pictures”. It’s about consistency at scale: straight verticals, reliable lighting, repeatable angles, and a finish that makes a whole building feel premium—flat after flat.
At Houses & Properties, we built our multi-unit services specifically for landlords, property managers, rent-to-rent operators, R2SA, and developers who need to photograph multiple units efficiently without sacrificing quality.
Why apartment block photography is different from a single flat shoot
Single-property shoots are straightforward: one set of rooms, one workflow, one edit batch.
Multi-unit shoots are different because you’re balancing:
- Repetition (many identical layouts)
- Operational constraints (tenants, access, time windows)
- Portfolio consistency (every unit must match the same standard)
- Marketing performance (images need to convert on Airbnb/Booking.com/Rightmove/Zoopla)
This is exactly why we use a layout-first process.
Our “layout-first” workflow for identical units (smart volume approach)
For each building, we run a repeatable system designed for identical or stacked flats:
1) Hero capture per layout/type
We photograph the first flat of each layout to set the benchmark:
- exposure + lighting style
- white balance consistency
- angles/compositions
- straight verticals + correct perspective
- shot list confirmation
2) Repeat-unit capture (same layout)
Once the look is dialled in, we replicate the same compositions across matching units so the portfolio feels intentional and high-end—while working faster on-site (which is why multi-unit pricing is unit-based).
3) Consistent editing across the full set
We apply uniform colour, contrast, temperature, brightness, lens correction, and perspective correction so images match across floors/buildings (and avoid fisheye distortion).

Multi-Flat Photography (for selected flats / “hero” coverage)
If you only need a set of hero images for a development (or want to start with a smaller batch), our Multi-Flat Photography service starts from £299, with selectable photo counts (10–30 photos).
This is ideal for:
- “hero layout” shoots where many units repeat
- show flats / marketing sets
- smaller multi-unit briefs where you don’t need every flat photographed
Turnaround times (and rush options)
For multi-unit projects, we typically deliver in organised batches (by building or shoot day) so marketing can begin immediately.
If you need guaranteed speed, Rush Turnaround (24 hours) is available on the multi-flat service.
We also offer next-day delivery options across other packages, depending on the service selected.
Add-ons that matter for multi-unit marketing
Depending on how you market the building, you can add:
- Floor plans (available as an add-on on the apartment block service)
- Virtual staging (noted as an optional service on multi-unit work)
- Drone photography for larger properties (optional)
Preparation checklist (saves time and keeps the portfolio consistent)
To get the cleanest, most “premium” results across dozens of units, we recommend:
Inside each flat
- lights working (replace blown bulbs)
- beds made and pillows aligned
- bins emptied, toiletries minimised
- hide loose cables, remotes, clutter
- open blinds/curtains consistently across the building
Communal areas
- clear hallways + tidy lobbies
- wipe fingerprints from glass/doors
- confirm access to stairwells/lifts/entry points
Access & scheduling
- group shoots by layout type where possible
- plan keys/concierge access in advance
- tell us any constraints (tenanted units, quiet hours, parking/loading)
