I photograph your property the way guests want to see it, warm, inviting, and true to life. Every image is carefully composed and edited to showcase your space at its best across Airbnb, Booking.com, and every other platform you list on.
From cosy cottages to luxury retreats, I adapt my approach to suit your property and target guests.
From thatched Somerset cottages to converted barns and farmhouses. I capture the character and charm that makes guests choose your property over the competition.
Modern flats, city apartments, and studio spaces. Clean, bright photography that shows off the space and makes your listing stand out in search results.
Shepherds huts, treehouses, yurts, and pods. These properties sell on experience, I photograph them to capture the atmosphere and adventure guests are looking for.
High-end properties with premium amenities. Magazine-quality photography that justifies premium nightly rates and attracts discerning guests.
The numbers don't lie. Here's what the data says about professional photography and holiday let performance.
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.
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.
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.
Use your photos across Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo, Sykes Cottages, your own website, and social media. One shoot provides marketing assets for every channel.

Professional photography packages for holiday lets, Airbnb, and short-term rentals.
Airbnb and holiday let photography goes beyond wide-angle room shots. It's a mix of wide-angle and curated editorial-style images, lifestyle details, styled vignettes, and guest-perspective angles that sell an experience, not just a space.
80% of my work is holiday rental photography. You're booking a specialist who's shot hundreds of listings and written the book on what makes them perform.

Airbnb & Holiday Let Photography Specialist
Around 80% of my work is holiday rental photography. It's not a sideline, it's what I do every day. I've shot hundreds of Airbnb listings, holiday cottages, glamping sites, serviced apartments, and boutique B&Bs across Somerset, Bristol, Bath, the Cotswolds, and beyond.
That volume of experience matters. I know which compositions drive bookings because I've seen the results. I know that a bedroom shot from the pillow perspective outperforms one from the doorway, that guests scroll past the front elevation and stop on the fire pit at dusk, that a styled kitchen detail converts better than a wide-angle overview. That knowledge comes from doing this work day after day, property after property.
I've also written the book on it. Stay Booked covers everything from listing optimisation and photography strategy to pricing and guest experience. When you book a shoot with me, you're getting that knowledge applied to your property, not just a set of technically competent images from someone who usually shoots weddings or headshots.
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 updating 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.
My Airbnb & Holiday Rentals packages start £199 for the Essential package (up to 15 professionally edited photos including drone aerials), £249 for Professional (up to 20 photos), and £349 for Premium (up to 30 photos). For most holiday lets, the Professional package at £249 is the most popular choice. Matterport 3D tours, video walkthroughs, and floor plans are available as add-ons. 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.
