Everything a listing needs, one shoot.

No juggling three vendors. One visit captures the full media package, so your listing goes live complete — not in pieces.

Listing Photography

Bright, true-to-life HDR interiors and exteriors that show every room at its best — straight lines, honest color, no fisheye distortion.

Signature Edge

FPV Fly-Throughs

A single, flowing drone flight through the front door and every room — the closest thing to walking the home, and a service almost no one in the Upstate offers.

Aerial Drone

Elevated stills and video that sell the lot, the roofline, the neighborhood, and the water — essential for acreage and lake properties.

Cinematic Video Tours

Smooth, stabilized walkthrough video with licensed music, paced to hold attention from the first frame to the call to action.

Twilight Shoots

The golden-hour money shot. Warm windows, deep blue sky — the thumbnail that wins the click on every portal.

Floor Plans & Reels

Clean 2D floor plans buyers actually use, plus vertical cut-downs of your tour formatted for Instagram Reels and TikTok.

FPV Fly-Throughs

The fly-through is the edge.

Photos show rooms. A fly-through shows flow — how the kitchen opens to the porch, how the primary suite sits apart, why the layout works. Shot indoors on a ducted FPV drone built for tight, quiet passes through real homes.

  • One continuous take, front door to back porch
  • Safe for occupied, staged, and furnished homes
  • Delivered in listing-wide and vertical social formats

Nathan Cooke

Owner & shooter, Cardinal Productions. I'm a Clemson student — a college kid trying to make a dream a reality, building this business one shoot at a time. I started out shooting nature and fell in love with it, and now I'm connecting that talent with my love of real estate.

"Agents don't need another photographer. They need media that makes a buyer pick up the phone — and they need it tomorrow."

A little about me: I'm Nathan, a college kid at Clemson trying to make a dream a reality. I didn't start out shooting houses — I started shooting nature. Out on the water, on the trail, chasing good light with a camera in my hand, and I fell in love with it. Real estate is where that love found a direction: I'm connecting my talents behind the camera with my interests in real estate, and it's the same world I'm studying in school — I'm a Financial Management major at Clemson with an emphasis in Real Estate and a minor in Accounting.

I got my start shooting listings back home through a local agent, and I brought Cardinal Productions with me to the Upstate to build it from the ground up while I'm in school. I'm not a big studio — when you book a shoot, you get me, my camera, and someone who treats every listing like it matters, because for a business I'm building from scratch, every single one does.

Cardinal Productions was built around the two things agents say matter most: media that stands out in a feed full of phone photos, and turnaround that never holds up a list date. Shoots are scheduled around your launch, files arrive edited and sized for everywhere the listing lives, and the FPV fly-through gives your marketing a piece almost no competing listing in the Upstate has.

First shoot coming up? Bring your hardest-to-show listing and see the difference it makes — email natescooke@gmail.com, call or text (854) 500-1069, or use the booking form below.

Questions agents ask first.

Under 24 hours from the shoot for photos, floor plans, and fly-throughs — that's the standard, not a rush upgrade. Video tours land within 48 hours. If your list date is tighter, say so in the booking request and we'll work it out.
Every booking gets a one-page prep checklist for your seller: all lights on, ceiling fans off, cars out of the driveway, counters and bathroom vanities cleared, beds made, and pets (and pet gear) out of frame. Fifteen minutes of prep is worth more than any edit.
A small, quiet, ducted drone flies one continuous path — in the front door, through the living spaces, kitchen, halls, and primary suite, and out to the porch or pool. The result is a single smooth video that shows how the home flows, which still photos and room-by-room clips can't.
One download link with everything organized: MLS-sized photos, full-resolution photos, floor plan files, and video in both widescreen and vertical formats. No watermarks on paid delivery, and files are yours to use for the life of the listing.
Greenville is covered weekly with no travel fee, and Seneca, Anderson, Easley, and the Hartwell/Keowee lake communities are standard territory. Further out, ask — a small travel fee may apply and it's always quoted up front.
Interiors and fly-throughs shoot in almost any weather. If rain or heavy wind would hurt exteriors or aerials, rescheduling is free — we'll split the shoot (interiors now, exteriors when it clears) so your list date doesn't move.
