About Equate Photography

The photographer behind your listing photos

I’m David Franke. I photograph homes, land and waterfront properties for real estate agents across Dorchester and Talbot County, from the ground and from the air.

My story

Why the name is Equate

Equate Photography started with travel and landscape work: telling the story of a place through pictures. Real estate turned out to be the same job. A buyer scrolling listings is deciding whether a place is worth the drive, and the photos have to answer that before they ever see it in person.

I’ve been shooting listings for more than five years. I’m based in Cambridge, so the towns I cover are the towns I know, and I show up on time, shoot the property the way a buyer will walk it, and get the media back to you fast so the listing can go live.

Booking is online and takes a couple of minutes. If you have a question first, call me directly.

How I shoot

What goes into every shoot

HDR bracketing

Several exposures of every room, blended so windows keep their view and interiors stay bright and true to color.

Aerial coverage

Drone photos and video that show the lot lines, the water, and what’s around the property.

Twilight exteriors

Dusk shots with the lights on, the image that stops a buyer mid-scroll.
