Real estate portraiture is something that JP Photographers would be interested in getting into it. So all you agents give them a call. "Let’s work together!!" they say!
Although clients are happy to pose for professional photography, they might
be nervous. "A big part of our job at JP Brandano Photography, is making them relax which means building relationships. Even though we have moved to Florida, many of our clients and their families are not just past clients but friends. We often get letters or emails telling us of a new birth in the family or just asking how we are. It is a great feeling to have families that we’ve photographed over the years, stay in contact. Also, it’s a great resource for referrals."
There is a lot more to photography than simply snapping a picture. JP Brandano Photography captures the very essence of every subject, with attention to mood, lighting and emotion.
To stain concrete, it must be unpainted and unstained. Concrete is porous and once it's stained it has essentially been sealed.
Materials Needed:
9" tear-resistant deck paint pad
telescoping rod
handle for paint pad (attach to telescoping rod)
paint pan
4" paintbrush
tarp
broom and hose
concrete stain (water-based)
bucket of water
rag (for any spills)
Choose a Color
Use the manufacturer's color chart as a guide to selecting your color. There are different levels of coverage in the various stain options. For this project, we've used a semi-transparent stain that looks like watercolor when applied. For more coverage, go with an opaque stain. Do a small test area on the concrete to make sure you're going to get the results you want. Always read the manufacturer's instructions on the container for any special considerations when using their product.
