Photographic Standards for Site Inspections

Practical standards for creating durable photographic records of property conditions.

5 min read

Establish context before detail

Wide contextual images orient the reader. Detail images then carry meaning because their location in the building is clear.

Sequence with intent

Move systematically through elevations, levels, and rooms. Random order creates review friction and missed areas.

Support with measurements and notes

Photography alone rarely answers quantity or method questions. Pair images with measurements, diagrams, and concise field notes.
