If you've bought an "architecturally important house" or overseen "a painstaking renovation," you might consider hiring a photographer to take photos of the home, according to an article in today's New York Times. The fees can run up to $75,000. Sandy Perlbinder and her husband, Steve, won this photograph of their Sagaponack home at a charity auction. Actually, they won a session with photographer Todd Eberle to shoot the Norman Jaffe-designed house. The couple declined to tell the Times how much they paid, although bidding started at $10,000. The estimated retail price of the shoot: $20,000. The work hangs in their Manhattan apartment.
