FAQs
Planning a hotel photo or video shoot? Here you’ll find answers to the most common questions I receive from hotel marketing teams, general managers, and hospitality brands. Whether you’re looking for lifestyle imagery, drone footage, or a full visual campaign, this FAQ will help you understand how I work and how we can create standout visuals that elevate your property.
What types of photography and video services do you offer?
I specialize in high-end photography and film for hotels & resorts, including interior and exterior shots, lifestyle imagery, food & beverage, spa and wellness, and brand videos that capture the essence of your property.
Do you offer drone services?
Yes, I offer both drone photography and video to highlight your hotel’s location, architecture, and surroundings from a unique aerial perspective. I’m a fully licensed drone pilot, and aerial content can be added to any package or booked separately.
In which locations do you work?
I'm based in Amsterdam and work across Europe and beyond. I've photographed and filmed hotels in destinations like Bali, the Bahamas, and almost any country in Europe — so international work is no problem.
How do we prepare for a hotel shoot?
Once we confirm the shoot, I’ll guide you through a detailed prep checklist. This includes room setups, styling tips, staff coordination, and shot planning to ensure everything runs smoothly and efficiently. I invite you to download my extensive Hotel Photography Guide here: Hotel Photography Guide.
How long does a typical shoot take?
It depends on the scope, but most shoots take between 1–3 days. I’ll advise you on the ideal duration based on your goals and the size of your property.
Can we request specific shots or styles?
Absolutely. I always tailor the shoot to your brand and goals. During our intake call, we’ll discuss your visual identity, mood boards, and any must-have shots.
Do you offer retouching or post-production?
Yes — all images go through detailed post-production to ensure they’re polished, consistent, and on-brand. Video editing includes color grading, licensed music, and brand integration where needed.
How will we receive the final files?
Images and videos are delivered via a private online gallery, ready for download in both web and print resolution. You’ll also receive a usage license for marketing purposes.
How far in advance should we book?
I recommend booking at least 4–6 weeks in advance, especially for international shoots or busy seasons. Last-minute bookings may be possible depending on availability.
What are your rates?
Rates depend on the package and scope of the project. I’m happy to send a custom quote once I know more about your property and needs.
Do you work alone or with a team?
I usually bring an assistant to help with lighting and logistics. This allows us to work faster and more efficiently, so we can capture more high-quality content in less time with minimal disruption to your hotel operations.
Can you help with models or stylists?
Yes — I work with a trusted network of professional models and stylists. Whether you're looking to capture lifestyle scenes, guest experiences, or brand moments, I can help assemble the right team to bring your vision to life.
