A Guide To Hotel Photography

September 27, 2024

Some of you may have seen (and read?!) this guide on my website before, but I have just updated it with new images and information. The tips seem fairly obvious to me; the need to be organised and tidy, making sure the bedrooms are beautifully prepared and the sheets are pressed. Or, if we are shooting food make sure you tell the chef if we need freshly prepared starters, mains and desserts and so on. You’d be amazed at how often the marketing people haven’t told the poor old staff what we are doing!

Hopefully you have had a busy summer so far, and now the evenings are drawing in, why not get some new photography ready for the next season? we can shoot roaring log fires, muddy boots near the door, cream teas in the lounge and so on. Or perhaps just a set of new bedroom images if you are redecorating.

This guide will help you decide on what you want doing, what you need to get ready, and how long it may take. I am happy to quote on jobs and will give you all the information you need… contact me through the contact page, or call me on 07779997831. I often work with Sarah now who is an excellent stylist and assistant, and this really ensures we get the work done quickly and efficiently. Please take a look at the guide I have prepared, and any are comments welcome! Thanks, Mark
