vacation rental Photography for super hosts
photography for your Airbnb
Guests are primarily concerned about two things when looking for a listing on Airbnb, VRBO, or elsewhere; PRICE and APPEAL. While we can't help you determine what you should charge, we can help you appeal to a wider audience with amazing photography that stands out from the rest of your competition.
By providing a visual narrative that highlights the unique aspects of your vacation rental, we help you attract more clicks and ultimately get more bookings. Many of our clients have expressed that after they uploaded their new photos they got more inquiries, more clicks, and more bookings.
With beautiful photography, you can differentiate your vacation rental property from your competitors, build trust with potential guests, and increase the chances of maximizing your rental's occupancy rates. Let us help you take your vacation rental business to new heights with the power of amazing imagery.
Our services are primarily based in Fresno & San Luis Obispo, but we service San Diego, Palm Springs, Lake Tahoe, and beyond.
Captivating Exteriors
Every home, its features, and location are different, so we consider the time of day, angle of light, composition, and what makes your home unique to produce stunning images that highlight the beauty and features of your property and the landscape.
Luxurious Interiors
We shoot with an elevated editorial aesthetic using natural light and strobes. We do this to highlight the elegant design elements, and inviting ambiance that set your property apart, ensuring that every image showcases the true essence of luxury.
Delicious Details
We appreciate the little things that make a stay exceptional. We capture the intricate details, features, and amenities that bring uniqueness to your home. From artfully arranged charcuterie boards to inviting wine setups or refreshing poolside drinks, we highlight the touches that enhance the guest experience.
