How to shoot painting before & afters

A before and after is only as good as the two photos. These make the difference between a nice post and one that gets you calls.

  1. 1

    Match the time of day

    Light changes how paint reads. Shoot the before and the after at roughly the same hour, and never straight into the sun, or the new color looks washed out.

  2. 2

    Go wide, then close

    One wide shot of the whole wall or house sells the transformation. A second job with a close-up of crisp trim lines shows the care that justifies your price.

  3. 3

    Take the before before the prep

    Once scraping and masking start, the before stops looking like the home the customer lived with. Take it on arrival, from the curb.

  4. 4

    Clear the ladders and tape

    Wait until the cleanup is done. Tape, drop cloths and ladders in the after photo make a finished job look unfinished.

Forgot the before photo? Ask the customer. Many homeowners snap one before you arrive.

How it works

Three steps. About a minute.

Use the photos already on your phone. No app to install and no account to make.

  1. 01

    Add your before & afters

    Pick the photos from your camera roll: a before, then an after. Add more jobs if you like, and swap any pair that's the wrong way round.

  2. 02

    Choose a design and size

    Wipe, Split, Framed or Bold. Reel, feed or square. Add your business name, the job, the town and your phone number.

  3. 03

    Download and post

    Get an MP4 video or images in seconds. Post to TikTok, Reels, Facebook or your Google Business Profile, with a trending sound.

The next step

A video gets them looking. A DonePage gets the quote.

Turn the same photos into a page for the job, with a quote form where homeowners can send photos of their own project. You get an alert the second someone asks, and the customer gets a review request.

  • Your photos come straight across from this tool
  • Quote form, instant lead alerts and auto-reply
  • Review requests and posts to Google, done for you
  • Videos without the DonePages mark

Questions

Good to know

1Which design works best for painting?

Framed suits interiors and color changes because both photos stay on screen together. Wipe is great for exteriors shot from the curb, where the before and after line up well.

2Can I show several rooms in one video?

Yes. Add each room as its own before and after job, up to six, and they play one after another with your name at the start and your number at the end.

3Is the before and after maker really free?

Yes. Make as many videos and images as you like, with no signup and no credit card. Each one carries a small “Made at donepages.com/free” mark in the corner.

4Do my photos get uploaded anywhere?

No. The video and images are made right on your phone or computer. Your photos stay on your device unless you choose to build a DonePage with them.

5Can I put several jobs in one video?

Yes. Add up to six before and after pairs and they play one after another, with your title card at the start and your contact details at the end.

6Which sizes can I make?

9:16 for Reels, TikTok, Shorts and Stories, 4:5 for the Instagram and Facebook feed, and a 1:1 square that works on Google Business Profile and anywhere else.

7Can I add music?

Add a trending sound when you post on TikTok or Instagram. The apps favor videos with trending sounds, and it keeps the file clear of copyright problems.

8Why doesn't the video work in my browser?

Making the video needs a recent browser: Chrome, Edge or Safari 17 and newer. If yours can't, the image download still works everywhere.

9Can I make these without the DonePages mark?

Yes. DonePages plans make before and after videos from every job page, without the mark, alongside the page, quote form, review requests and Google posts.

Nothing you add here is uploaded or stored by DonePages.
