Streaks, hard-water spots and grime fade from memory once the glass is clear.
For window cleaners
Make clean windows impossible to miss
Clean glass is hard to photograph. Photo Luego helps you match the angle and framing of each window so the before and after tell the story, then packages the shots into a report for your customer.

Where the money leaks
Shots from different angles hide the difference.
Commercial customers want proof the job was done.
How Photo Luego helps
Overlay and edge lines to match each window exactly.
Auto-pair dozens of photos across a whole building.
Time and location stamps for commercial accounts.
A report with a note per window or elevation.
On the job
Shoot each pane or elevation before you start. After cleaning, line up each shot with the overlay and let the pairs match themselves.
What to photograph on a window cleaning job
- Each elevation or storefront wide, from the street or a fixed spot.
- Close-ups of the dirtiest panes: hard-water spots, paint, tape residue or streaks.
- Frames, sills and tracks, if they are part of the job.
- Interior and exterior views of the same pane, if you clean both.
- Screens, if you remove and clean them.
- The same panes once they are completely dry.
Tips for before and after photos that match
- 1
Photograph glass at an angle to the light. Streaks and spots show up best when the light skims across the surface.
- 2
Step slightly to the side so your own reflection is not in the shot.
- 3
Take the after when the glass is fully dry, and from the same spot as the before.
- 4
Shoot at the same time of day so the reflections match.
- 5
Frame each pane with something fixed, such as the frame or a mullion, so you can line it up again.
- 6
For large buildings, take one wide elevation first, then work floor by floor.
Short captions that help the report sell
One line under a transformation says what you did. A few to adapt:
Hard-water spots on the storefront glass, removed.
North elevation, exterior cleaned, second floor.
Window tracks cleared of dirt and debris.
Interior and exterior of the bay window, cleaned.
What to tell the customer
Explain that you document the work: "I take a photo of each window area before and after so you can see the result and I have a record of what was cleaned." For commercial customers, mention that the photos carry the date and time.
General advice, not legal advice. Rules about photographing people and property vary by place, so check yours.
Questions
What should I photograph on a window cleaning job?
Each elevation wide, close-ups of the dirtiest panes, frames and tracks if they are in scope, and the same views once the glass is dry.
How do I photograph clean glass?
Shoot at an angle to the light so streaks show, avoid your own reflection, and compare before and after from the same spot at a similar time of day.
Does it work for large commercial buildings?
Yes. Capture as many before photos as you like, then match them as you finish each area.
Can I include the date and time?
Yes. A switch in the report details adds the time each photo was taken.
