Property Types

Every Type of Holiday Let

From cosy cottages to luxury retreats, I adapt my approach to suit your property and target guests.

Holiday Cottages

From thatched Somerset cottages to converted barns and farmhouses. I capture the character and charm that makes guests choose your property over the competition.

Airbnb Apartments

Modern flats, city apartments, and studio spaces. Clean, bright photography that shows off the space and makes your listing stand out in search results.

Glamping & Unique Stays

Shepherds huts, treehouses, yurts, and pods. These properties sell on experience, I photograph them to capture the atmosphere and adventure guests are looking for.

Luxury Holiday Lets

High-end properties with premium amenities. Magazine-quality photography that justifies premium nightly rates and attracts discerning guests.

The Data

Why Professional Photography Pays for Itself

The numbers don't lie. Here's what the data says about professional photography and holiday let performance.

More Bookings, Higher Revenue

Airbnb's own data shows listings with professional photos receive 24% more bookings. Wider industry studies report revenue increases of up to 40%. The investment typically pays for itself within 2–3 months.

Higher Nightly Rates

Professional photography helps justify premium pricing. Hosts report 15–20% higher nightly rates after upgrading their listing photos, because guests perceive the property as higher quality.

Stand Out in Search Results

Your cover photo is the first thing potential guests see when scrolling. A professionally shot hero image dramatically increases your click-through rate compared to phone photos.

Multi-Platform Marketing

Use your photos across Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo, Sykes Cottages, your own website, and social media. One shoot provides marketing assets for every channel.

What Holiday Let Owners Say

Helping Airbnb hosts and holiday let owners attract more bookings with professional photography.

“Since Matthew photographed our cottage, our booking rate has gone through the roof. The photos capture the warmth and character of the space perfectly. Guests regularly comment that the property looks exactly like the pictures, that's the best compliment.”

David & Claire H.
Airbnb Superhosts, Glastonbury

“Matthew understood exactly what we needed for our holiday let listing. The photos are bright, inviting, and really showcase the best features of our property. We saw a noticeable increase in enquiries within the first month.”

Tom W.
Holiday Let Owner, Cheddar

“I was amazed at how much better my listing looked after Matthew's shoot. He even helped me rearrange a few things to get the best angles. The drone shots of the garden were the cherry on top. Five stars all round.”

Emma S.
Airbnb Host, Wells
Matthew Evans, Property Photographer

From Matthew

Airbnb & Holiday Let Photography Specialist

I started photographing Airbnb properties and holiday lets across Somerset back in 2019, and it's become one of my favourite areas of work. There's something uniquely satisfying about helping a host transform their listing from "just another rental" into something that genuinely stands out.

What I've learned from shooting dozens of holiday lets, from converted barns on the Levels to Georgian townhouses in Bath, is that Airbnb photography is fundamentally different from estate agent photography. Guests aren't buying a property; they're buying an experience. So I focus on the details that sell that experience: the view from the bedroom window, the wood burner ready to light, the outdoor dining area at golden hour.

Most of my Airbnb clients see a noticeable jump in bookings within the first month. One host in Glastonbury told me her occupancy went from 60% to 92% after I updated her photos, and she raised her nightly rate by £15 at the same time. That's the kind of return that makes this work genuinely rewarding.

FAQ

Airbnb Photography Questions

My Airbnb & Holiday Rentals packages start £149 for the Essential package (up to 15 professionally edited photos including drone aerials), £199 for Professional (up to 20 photos), £299 for Premium (up to 30 photos), and £399 for the Ultimate package (up to 40 photos plus Matterport 3D virtual tour and property video walkthrough, saving £200). For most holiday lets, the Professional package at £199 is the most popular choice. View the pricing section on this page for full details.

All photos are delivered within 48 hours as standard, fully edited and optimised for both web and print use. If you need them sooner, express 24-hour delivery is available.

I provide guidance on preparing your property before the shoot, things like fresh flowers, plumped cushions, and clearing surfaces. For a full styling service, I work with local interior stylists who can dress the property to a magazine standard. Just ask and I'll arrange it.

Airbnb recommends images of at least 1024 × 683 pixels. I deliver all images in high resolution (typically 6000 × 4000 pixels) so they look sharp on any device and can be used across all platforms without quality loss.

I'd recommend scheduling the shoot during a gap between bookings when the property is freshly cleaned and staged. This gives us the best results. Most hosts find a midweek slot works well, I can usually accommodate short notice bookings.

Yes, while I'm based in Somerset, I photograph holiday lets across the UK. Travel is included within Somerset and surrounding counties. For properties further afield, I offer competitive nationwide rates. View the pricing below or call me to discuss.

The data is clear: Airbnb's own internal testing showed bookings increased 2–3× with professional photos, and their published data shows a 24% average increase. Combined with higher nightly rates (15–20% uplift reported by hosts), most property owners see a return on their photography investment within 2–3 months.

Absolutely. I offer Matterport 3D virtual tours and laser-accurate floor plans as add-ons to any photography package. Virtual tours are particularly effective for holiday lets, they give potential guests confidence in what they're booking and reduce enquiries about room sizes and layout.
