VIRTUAL STAGING Guide

Get perfectly balanced exposures in every room.

What is VIRTUAL STAGING?

HDR (High Dynamic Range) balances bright windows with dark interiors so every detail is visible — no blown-out skies, no dark corners.

How Lumistate HDR Works

Our AI analyses exposure zones across your image and selectively adjusts brightness, recovering detail in shadows and highlights without that 'overdone HDR' look.

Best Practices

• Shoot in RAW or high-quality JPEG for best results
• Include at least one window in interior shots — HDR shines when there's a wide dynamic range
• Use the 'Natural' preset for subtle enhancement, or 'Bright & Airy' for a more dramatic lift

Common Issues

• Overly dark source photos: HDR can recover a lot, but extremely underexposed images may show noise
• Multiple light sources: Lumistate handles mixed lighting well, but consistent white balance in your source helps
