Answer: We use a virtual tour technology that is an approved PicturePath™ member of Homestore, Inc the operator of Realtor.com. This means that we are authorized to send virtual tours from our servers to the following websites: www.realtor.com, www.homestore.com, www.msn.com. Homestore, Inc applies a charge for each tour sent to the sites listed above. We pass on this charge to you. The cost is $25.00 each time we send a virtual tour through the PicturePath gateway. All companies that post virtual tours to the Homestore network of sites are charged to do so. Companies that are not an approved PicturePath™ member are unauthorized to send virtual tours to the Homestore network of sites. We can also send your tours to www.homeseekers.com and www.homes.com at no charge to you.
Virtual Tour Distribution
Virtual tour syndication just makes sense. You know that when you generate more exposure for your listings, they are likely to sell quicker and at a higher dollar value. Who has the time to re-enter a single real estate listing into hundreds of syndication and distribution systems? Most people do not and that is why [Your Company Name] has direct access to the PicturePath™ distribution portal through Realtor.com and Move.com (formerly Homestore Inc.) we are authorized to feed ANY real estate virtual tour with a valid MLS number to the websites listed below free of charge as longs as the listing agent is a showcase member of Move.com/Realtor.com.
Move.com applies a charge for each real estate virtual tour sent from us to these sites if the Realtor is a non-showcase member. The fee is waived if the Realtor is a showcase member with Move.com. If you are not a showcase member and would like your virtual tour sent to Realtor.com we apply a [Set fee] at the time of your tour order and your tour will instantly be send to Realtor.com and 90 other websites upon upload!! Yes 90 other sites!!
PanoRiders: Add a little "pizazz" or "bling" to a real estate sign with a head-turning PanoRider™. The concept is simple, but VERY effective. Each PanoRider™ advertises the single property website URL with a high quality panorama. The single property website for a virtual tour, on average, accounts for at least 45% of the hits. This tool is something every real estate agent should be implementing with their virtual tours, allowing them to turn street traffic into web traffic. [Set Pricing]
Property Specific Websites: Give your virtual tours a real presence on the web with an interactive site. These websites contain your full interactive virtual tour with enhanced listing features. [Set Pricing]

> Subject: EJ Domingue
>
> Faith and Photography
> By Robby Dardeau
>
> There are countless people who give up on their dreams. Some let
the
> negative powers of this world throw cold water on the fires of
their
> heart, while others just don’t commit to following through when
the
> road to completion gets tough. But there are some who are
courageous
> enough to step out and follow through no matter what. One such
person
> is E.J. Domingue.
>
> Domingue’s dream was to be a professional photographer. That
dream
> started when he was a young boy seeing some black and white
> photographs taken by his cousin, Terry Thompson. The photos had
an
> artistic quality to them and captured Domingue’s imagination.
He
was
> inspired, and thought, “Wow, that would be awesome to do.”
>
> The early ‘80’s found Domingue getting a diploma in air
conditioning
> and refrigeration. He found work offshore and then got laid off,
but
> realized he still had a desire for photography in his heart. So
in
> 1984, while looking through a photography magazine, he responded
to
an
> advertisement for a correspondence course. This was with the
New
> York Institute of Photography. He took the course and began
learning
> to look at things differently through the lens of the camera.
His
> humble training got him hungry to learn even more. Soon, he was
doing
> some part-time work with a professional photographer in Lafayette,
> hoping that this photographer would teach him some tricks of the
> trade. But that wasn’t the case. Instead, Domingue’s
learning
came
> from his own experience, and soon left that gig.
>
> In 1985, Domingue photographed his first wedding. He shot that
> wedding free of charge along with all the other weddings he
> photographed for the next three years. The reason for not
charging
> was because he was gaining experience, and as he puts it, “I
didn’t
> have any self-confidence and I didn’t believe in myself.” He
didn’t
> believe his work deserved to be paid for either.
>
> Eventually, Domingue’s experience grew and the positive feedback
from
> his work gave him enough confidence to charge. But he didn’t
know
> what to charge for his work, because he never really thought of
that.
> To him, his dream of becoming a photographer was not about money,
but
> just following his passion. So, Domingue began charging $100 per
> wedding. The first time he charged for a wedding, Domingue
thought,
> “Oh no, what if I mess up!” Well, he didn’t mess up and
soon
learned
> what others were charging for photography. He then realized he
was
> giving his customers much more than most photographers and
charging
> much less. To this day, Domingue is known to give more than
expected
> at no charge. “Some lagniappe,” he says.
>
> Throughout those early years, Domingue held various full-time jobs
to
> pay the bills, but his heart was still set on doing photography
> full-time. Domingue says the shyness he struggled with as a
young
man
> didn’t help his progress as a photographer. In addition to
that,
he
> would doubt himself, thinking he wasn’t good enough to do it.
> Domingue says, “People would say, ‘You need to get a real
job.
You
> can’t make a living doing that.’” But, he never gave up.
He
says of
> photography, “It was in me. I couldn’t help it. I love the
act of
> catching that moment in a photograph.”
>
> For years it seemed that every door Domingue knocked on for his
dream
> to come true stayed closed. He didn’t have the right camera,
lens, or
> lighting, and he certainly didn’t have the money to invest in
that
> either. The photography road was rough.
>
> Domingue then made some changes on his priority list. For the
first
> time in his life, living for God became the number one desire of
> Domingue’s heart. While Domingue’s faith strongly grew, he
still held
> on to his childhood dream of taking pictures for a living.
>
> In 2003, Domingue came to a crossroads. He still wanted to go
> full-time as a photographer, but knew he needed to update his
> equipment and go digital. Going into business for himself would
take
> money that he did not have, so in prayer he asked God to show him
what
> to do. Domingue wanted a sign to know for sure if he was to
continue
> pursuing his dream, and he was willing to give it up if it
wasn’t
> God’s will for him. Well, within one week of that prayer,
Domingue
> got two signs from above. The first one involved a friend of his
> calling him up out of the blue to give him free business
advertising
> throughout Acadiana for a year. The second sign happened a few
days
> later, when someone gave Domingue enough money to buy all brand
new
> state of the art equipment. Domingue says, “That all confirmed
that I
> am doing what I am supposed to be doing.”
>
> In June of 2007, Domingue took a step in faith and began his
> photography full-time. He still covers weddings, sporting
events,
and
> does industrial work for the oilfield. He will soon be doing 360
> Degree Virtual Tours for the commercial and residential real
estate
> market in the Lafayette and Lake Charles area.
>
> Domingue believes that all good things are from God and that
nobody
> should give up on dreams. He says, “All of us have a talent,
never
> give up on it. Put God first and He’ll give you the desires of
your
> heart in His timing.”
