I was referred to Architara by my listing service Homecoin. The price was very reasonable, they are very easy to work with and was punctual. Photographer listened to what I wanted and took amazing pictures. They returned retouched pictures early next morning. I highly recommend their services.

This is the second time I have used Architara for listing photos. Fast, dependable and very professional work. Highly recommended. I have referred them out to another one of my Agents that used them for one of her listings and she was also very happy.

I needed a fresh perspective on a property I am marketing for sale. Architara Photography was prompt, professional and listened to my needs. From the initial phone call to the finished product they are a 5 star company. Our photographer worked her magic and we had the photos up on the MLS in record time. Highly recommend

I hired Architara for a project I had in Westminster. Tara had to come all the way from Riverside for this short photography project but she was super easy going and communicative with us. It was a very last minute request, but I was able to book a date with them right away and the photos came out within a day! Love all the photos :) Definitely will work with them again!

Carl is the man. Just had him take photos of a house we are listing for sale and not only is he knowledgeable but he is a joy to work with. Photos are huge in real estate marketing and having both characteristics with great photos is a big plus. Highly recommend these guys.

I've hired Architara Photography for multiple listing shoots and I must say that the experience I have had is phenomenal. The quality of the photo's, the professionalism of the photographer, and the timeliness in which they accomplished my requests was far better than anyone I have used in the past. I will be using them exclusively moving forward and cannot recommend them highly enough!
