Show Properties the Way Buyers Search
Real estate and commercial property videography for listings and portfolios in Salt Lake City, Utah.
When you list a property, buyers start their search online, and static photos only show so much. Video walkthroughs let them move through rooms, see ceiling heights, and understand flow before they ever schedule a showing. In Salt Lake City, where mountain views and natural light are selling points, video captures what photos compress. Rafoto Films Productions films residential listings, commercial properties, and development sites with stabilized camera movement and wide-angle lenses that make spaces feel accurate, not distorted.
We shoot during the time of day that makes your property look its best. For homes, that's usually mid-morning when natural light fills interiors without harsh shadows. For commercial spaces, we coordinate around tenant activity and schedule shoots when lobbies, conference rooms, and common areas are vacant. Each shoot includes interior walkthroughs, exterior angles, and neighborhood context shots that show proximity to streets, parking, or amenities.
If you're preparing to list a property or need video for a portfolio presentation, reach out to schedule a walkthrough and discuss your timeline.

How We Capture Property Footage
We arrive at your Salt Lake City property with a gimbal-stabilized camera, wide-angle lenses, and portable LED lights to balance interior exposure. The shoot starts outside with establishing shots that show curb appeal, landscaping, and parking access. Then we move inside, filming each room in a continuous flow that mirrors how a buyer would walk through the space.
After the shoot, you receive an edited video with smooth transitions, color correction, and optional text overlays for square footage, price, or contact details. The final file works on MLS platforms, YouTube, social media, and email campaigns without additional formatting.
For commercial properties, we include exterior signage, loading docks, elevator access, and any features that matter to tenants or investors. Turnaround is typically 48 to 72 hours from shoot to delivery. If you need same-day edits for an open house or investor meeting, we offer expedited delivery for an additional fee based on project size.
Common Questions About Property Video
Here's what realtors and property managers ask before booking their first shoot with us.
- What should we do to prepare a property before the shoot? Clear countertops, remove personal items, turn on all lights, and open blinds or curtains. We handle the rest, including minor adjustments to furniture or decor if it blocks a clean camera path.
- How long does it take to film a single property? A standard residential shoot takes 60 to 90 minutes depending on square footage and room count. Larger commercial properties or multi-building sites may require a half-day shoot.
- Why does real estate video look better than phone footage? We use gimbal stabilization to eliminate shaky movement and wide-angle lenses to show full rooms without distortion. Lighting equipment balances shadows and prevents blown-out windows.
- What if the property isn't staged yet? We can shoot vacant properties, but furnished or staged spaces always perform better on video. Empty rooms look smaller and harder to visualize without reference points like furniture or decor.
- When should we schedule the shoot relative to the listing date? Book your shoot at least three days before the listing goes live to allow time for editing and revisions. If you need the video sooner, let us know during booking and we'll prioritize your project.
