Straight & Level Photography

At Straight & Level Photography, we are dedicated to providing Hawaii real estate brokers, builders, and home sellers with the highest quality interior, exterior, and aerial photos. We use a combination of ambient and flash photography to produce naturally vivid and beautiful pictures of your home, bringing viewers into warm, light-filled spaces.

The name "Straight & Level" is derived from a term used in aviation, meaning to fly in a constant heading and altitude. Similarly, in construction, you want to make sure your walls are vertically straight and your floors are horizontally level. The same principle applies to real estate and architecture photography. Our photographers make sure their photos have straight vertical lines and level horizontal lines, which may seem minor but makes a significant difference when marketing homes or commercial businesses.

Our team is led by John, a passionate and skilled photographer who is dedicated to producing great work with aloha. With over 10 years of experience in technology and the internet, John has an extensive background that allows him to understand the importance of high-quality visuals in marketing properties. He is also a licensed pilot, which gives him a unique perspective and skill set for aerial photography. John is passionate about photography and has high standards for his work, ensuring that every project he takes on receives the attention and care it deserves.
