Stand Out From The Competition With Professional Airbnb Photography
A Photo Is Worth A Thousand Bookings
Took photos on your phone for your Airbnb rental property?
Do they really highlight the space to justify how much you're charging?
Want more bookings with higher paying customers?
A photo that captures your guest's attention at first glance can do wonders for your business.
Have you ever rented an Airbnb, a Vrbo, or a Hotel?
I’m sure you've noticed this when the photos stand out on the page. You might even stop your search when you find the temporary home you are looking for.
Your Airbnb has rooms, features, amenities, and equipment that your guests are looking for and you need someone that has the eye to take those quality photos and drive results.
Your guests are looking at hundreds of pictures while planning their vacation and looking for a rental.
Will they pick the listing that has photos with bad lighting?
Will they choose to look at a listing that has photos taken at bad angles?
Or will they choose the listing that's bright, crisp, clean, and welcoming?
We have guidelines we follow when creating pictures of furnished spaces that attract new company. Our service isn't just point, shoot, and deliver.
Airbnb and Vrbo hosts love us because of the results we drive.

Professional Photography
Make no mistake, anyone can call themselves a photographer, but do they produce results?
Anyone can take a pretty picture, just point your high-tech camera at a beautiful scene and snap away. However, bringing in results with photography is a different ball game.
When seeking a photographer for your rentals, here are a few things to look out for:
Have they shot Airbnb photography before?
Have they shot any property before?
How long have they been a photographer?
How professional were they in your initial interactions?
How extensive is their portfolio?
The year is 2022, all cameras are amazing and can take great quality photos, but there's so much more to producing actual results.
Our clients have seen an increase in bookings by 20% since switching over from cell phone photos to actual photography.
And not just any photography, here is an overview of our process:
As professional photographers, we ask a lot of questions before the photoshoot and gather information about what's important to you the client, and what you would like to showcase to your guests
Photographer arrives on location, fixes up any imperfections (you should keep a squeaky clean rental) turn all the lights on, and ensure everything looks top tier before taking photos
We take photos from angles that highlight the space in its best light, even with additional lighting, and we help the guests feel at home from the photos
Having owned an Airbnb we personally understand the importance of that first impression through photography

Vacation Rental and Airbnb Host - It's Your Responsibility
Vacation rentals are really important.
As an Airbnb host, you have a responsibility to ensure that your guests have a beautiful and peaceful stay when they book with you. Your service to them should be immaculate because a vacation is a luxury and being able to take one is a blessing.
Not to put too much pressure on you, but your guests deserve the best you have to offer if they choose your Airbnb or Vrbo as their vacation rental.
You want great ratings on your Airbnb listings, which means when your customers visit, you have to provide a great service.
If you have all the amenities and your service is A1, now you have to find a great way to display this to your vacation rental with photography. Since Airbnb and Vrbo currently do not accept 360 virtual tours, photography is the best option.
We make photos sound like the end all be all, but let's face it, not everyone reads. Providing the absolute best visual representation of your property will pay dividends immediately.
Choosing A Photographer
As an Airbnb or Vrbo host, you get to choose your photographer. Make sure all your values align and that you ask the right questions.
Here are some examples:
How long have you been a photographer?
What do you enjoy most about photography?
Have you made pictures of Airbnb or Vrbo properties before?
Why should I hire you?
Can I see some of your latest photographs?
Do you have a website? If not, what's your social media?
What's the name of your company?
If I decide to choose you, what support do you offer for updated pictures?
What's the cost and How do I pay you?
Is your price flexible?
Are you local?
Have you driven results to your client's listing?
Do you only shoot natural light?
Have you taken photos of a vacation rental before?
Do you work with other photographers?
These questions are simply examples of what to ask and will help you gauge where the photographers been, what they've done, who they've helped get more bookings, and what experience they have.
Photo Shoot and Airbnb Photography
Let the photo shoot do the marketing for you.
These pictures can help your Airbnb, Vrbo or short-term rental guests decide if this is the home for their stay. They will be able to see how much room they have to relax, and what activities if any they can do outside or nearby, and they can imagine what to expect when they arrive at your property.
When creating your Airbnb listing you will have to enter a bit of information about your property. Why not highlight those items in the photo shoot?
Your listing photos should include the following:
All amenities
Rooms available and room to feel at home
Community and surrounding resources
Available parking
Natural light availability if any
Document your process of entering and exiting the property
A lot of these things aren't apparent at first, so hiring a professional photographer will help ease the stress and ensure success with your photoshoot.
Your Listing Should Feel Like Home
Sure, we make it seem like hosting is a big responsibility, we believe so because we've done it.
The digital media around your property, the photos, and the money you spend on it should match the amount of energy and curation you put into how your Airbnb property looks and feels.
Airbnb photography or an Airbnb photographer can help you achieve this.
The Cost of Airbnb Photography
While the value is immense, the cost isn't.
You can expect the cost to be anywhere between $150-$400 depending on the size and location of your property. Which is a very small charge for the amount of value good photography will have on your listing.
