How Oval Infotech's Style Guide System Works

On your first order, Oval Infotech creates a documented style guide from 3–5 reference images you provide. This guide captures your preferred white balance target, contrast level, shadow recovery preference, saturation and clarity settings, and any specific retouching instructions that apply to your work. Every subsequent delivery is checked against this guide before export.

The style guide system eliminates the briefing overhead that makes outsourcing feel cumbersome. After your first order, you submit files and receive matched results — no instructions needed with each submission, no inconsistencies between batches, no quality degradation during peak volume periods. Updates to your style guide are accepted at any time and applied within 24 hours across your active account.

Getting Started With Oval Infotech

Starting with Oval Infotech requires no commitment and no setup cost. Submit 5 images for a free trial — your most challenging real estate brackets, your most complex product masking job, or your most detail-demanding portrait retouching. We return edited results within 24 hours so you can evaluate quality against your professional standard.

If the trial meets your standard, set up an account and submit your first paid batch. Your style guide is created from the trial images and applied to every subsequent delivery. If the trial does not meet your standard, you have spent nothing and received honest information about whether our service is the right fit. Start your trial at ovalinfotech.com/free-trial or contact us directly at venkatesh@ovalinfotech.com.

What Our Real Estate Editing Includes

1

Exposure & White Balance

Every image is individually exposure-balanced and white-balance corrected to a clean, neutral base that accurately represents the property's true colour and light.

2

HDR & Window Management

Blown-out windows are corrected using multi-exposure blending or luminosity masking, pulling exterior detail through windows for a natural, balanced interior view.

3

Perspective & Lens Correction

Converging verticals are straightened and wide-angle barrel distortion removed, delivering images with accurate architectural geometry for MLS submission.

4

Colour Cast Removal

Mixed light sources — tungsten, LED, daylight — are harmonised across the full frame, eliminating orange, green, and blue casts from interior photography.

5

Sky & Object Enhancement

Sky replacement (where needed), lawn enhancement, and minor object removal are applied to produce clean, competition-ready exterior images.

Real Estate Editing starting at $0.30/image

Professional property editing delivered in 24 hours. Free trial for new clients.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do New Zealand real estate photographers outsource editing to India? +
New Zealand's time zone (NZST) aligns almost perfectly with India's overnight workflow — images submitted at end-of-day are processed while NZ clients sleep and returned by morning, enabling next-day portal uploads at 70–80% less than local editing costs.
What New Zealand property portals are Oval Infotech images compatible with? +
Our images meet Trade Me Property, realestate.co.nz, and OneRoof specifications for New Zealand property listings — correct resolution, colour accuracy, and listing-ready formatting.
What editing style suits New Zealand real estate photography? +
New Zealand listings favour clean, bright, naturally warm images that reflect the country's outdoor lifestyle aesthetic. Sky replacement is particularly popular for coastal and rural properties where weather is variable.
How much does real estate editing cost for New Zealand photographers? +
Editing starts at approximately NZD$0.65–1.00/image at current exchange rates — far less than local New Zealand editing services.
