STEP 1.
First determine the best view and time of day when the sunlight shines on your home. Usually, house portrait features the entryway.

Be careful of views at the end of the driveway- photo may exagerate the dirveway.

  

STEP 2.
After taking photos of your preferred view, take detail shots walking toward the building. Stay on the same line as you walk forward so details and everything else is photographed from the same angle.

A. ORIGINAL VIEW
B. DETAILS
Roofline, windows, doors, gardens, etc.
C. CLOSER DETAILS
D. CLOSE-UP DETAILS
Flowers, light fixtures, curtains, etc.

STEP 3.
Study your photographs. Remember, what you see is what I will paint. Be sure all important details are included.
  
STEP 4.
Include paint chips or color samples of building, roof, flowers (anything where exact color matters). Photograph colors usually aren't true. If you no longer have paint samples, visit your neighborhood paint store for paint chips that are a close match.
