StageHQ

Virtual Staging for Real Estate Photographers

Turn every vacant-home shoot into an upsell — stage at $0.28, bill at market rates.

Traditional virtual staging vendors charge $15–$30 per image, which makes reselling staging a thin-margin hassle for photographers. StageHQ flips the economics: stage your clients' vacant rooms yourself in 30 seconds for as little as $0.28 per image, deliver them with your photo package, and keep the margin. Every purchased credit includes a commercial license.
