Get permission

Agree what can be photographed and published. Avoid addresses, personal items, documents, vehicle plates and identifiable people unless explicit consent covers them.

Show the sequence

Capture the original condition, important hidden preparation and the finished result. Process images help customers understand workmanship they cannot see later.

Keep images honest

Use natural perspective, tidy the working area and avoid filters that distort colour or hide defects. Add a short factual project description.
