Your best work deserves better than a blurry iPhone photo taken before you packed up.
Before and after photo documentation for contractors across New Mexico. Delivered within 48 hours. Ready to put on your website, your socials, or in front of your next client.
The Problem
You finish a $60K pool install and someone hands you a phone and says "get a quick pic before we leave." You do. It's noon, the light is brutal, and the wide angle on an iPhone makes the yard look half the size it actually is.
That photo ends up on your website. That photo is what the next client sees before they decide whether to call you.
The work is great. The photo isn't doing it any favors.
The Guide
Nuvista shoots real estate across Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, and Santa Fe — the kind of photos that make a $400K listing feel like it's worth $600K. We bring the same eye to your job sites.
We're not just a photographer. We think about your marketing before we ever pick up a camera. When to shoot, what angle sells the transformation, how to frame the final result so a future client can see themselves in it. Most contractors have never had someone on their team who thinks that way. That's what you're getting.
- • 15+ years in photography, video, and visual branding
- • FAA Part 107 certified — drone coverage available for full outdoor projects
- • Same shooter, same edit standard, every job
What We Shoot
Every project gets a consistent set: the right angles, the right light, delivered as a clean folder you can hand to anyone.
Before — captured before work begins. This one's non-negotiable. The before shot is what makes the after shot mean something.
After — final documentation once the job is complete. The reveal. The one that sells the next project.
During — available for projects where the transformation has a compelling middle chapter. A pool mid-dig, a kitchen gutted to studs, a full landscape stripped and rebuilt. Not every project needs it — but when it fits, it adds depth to the story.
Reel add-on — a short vertical before/after video shot on the final visit, ready for Instagram or Facebook. No extra scheduling, no separate booking.

FAQ
- What if I just want the after?
- We can do standalone final documentation — but the before shot is what makes the after shot land. If you can give us 20 minutes before work starts, it's worth it.
- Do you work outside Albuquerque?
- Service area is Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, and Santa Fe. Travel outside that area — contact for rate.
- Can you add drone to a project?
- Yes, for outdoor projects where it adds value — pools, full landscape, additions. We'll flag it on the call if it makes sense.
- How do I book the before visit before I even know the project timeline?
- You don't need to have the schedule locked. Book the call, tell us roughly when you're starting, and we'll get on your calendar. We work around job site reality — we know things shift.
- I need ongoing photos for a multi-month build, not just one before/after set — is that the same thing?
- No — that's Construction Progress Documentation, our monthly drone and ground coverage for builders and developers tracking a project over time. This page is for a single before/after (or before/during/after) set on a finished job.
