Accommodation & Short Stay Photography.

Photography that fills your calendar.

Perhaps you chose your property because of its location, it’s charm or the way you instantly feel relaxed when you turn the key. Whatever the reasons, I am sure there’s many, I’m here to help share them in a collection of gorgeous images that feel just like your place.

Your photoshoot covers your interiors, exteriors and the surrounding area, capturing all the special things that makes your property and its location worth choosing.

Front of a house with white siding, a corrugated metal roof, a chimney, and a screen door, surrounded by trees and bushes.
A backyard garden with two white Adirondack chairs on a brick patio, a large palm tree, a wooden fence, and some small plants.

Everything a guest needs to see to say yes.

A bedroom scene with a bed, pillows, a nightstand, a lamp, and beige curtains. The sunlight filters through the curtains, illuminating the room with warm light.

All the thoughtful details

The carefully considered details, textures and choices that set your property apart.

View of a modern house with large sliding glass doors opening to a wood deck. The interior features an open kitchen, dining area, and living room. There are outdoor chairs on the deck and brick paving on the ground outside.

Wide shots for the bigger picture

From the bedroom to the back deck, every space your guests will love, seen at its best.

The experience of the area

Sharing the landscapes, laneways and hidden gems. The many reasons you chose this location, in photos.

Beyond the Booking

Photography of your short stay property and its surrounds, capturing the light, textures and small details that give guests a genuine feel for the place before they arrive.

It's not just the bedroom and the pool, it's the walk down to the beach, the café on the corner, the golden hour view from the deck. Guests booking a stay aren't just booking a room, they're booking an experience, and your photos should show them that.

Perfect for property owners wanting their short stay listing to stand out and book out.

The Process

You’re ready to elevate your listing with professional photography and I am here to make the whole process as smooth and enjoyable as possible.

Before starting, this is a great chance to meet and for you tell me all about the images you are needing for your short stay property.

Tell me about your property, what makes it special and what you're hoping to achieve. We will talk through package options and dates and establish a clear path of what’s to come.

A relaxed 15 minute video call to get us started.

Step 1 - Lets chat

Step 2 - Proposal

Based on our chat, I'll put together a personalised quote for you.

This will outline the number of images, time required and the photography package that's the best fit for your property.

Once you're happy to go ahead, you'll be asked to sign a service agreement and your shoot will be booked.

All pricing is supplied upfront with a deposit payment required to secure your booking.

Your shoot is now confirmed and the planning can begin.

A kitchen and dining area with a wooden table and chairs, a pendant light, a decorative tree, and a shelf with kitchen items.
A porch with a rattan chair with a white cushion, a small black rattan table, a tree with dark leaves, and a white wall and window.
Close-up of a green door with a black, ornate door handle, and a window on the upper part with a blurred background.
A cozy living space with a wooden armchair featuring a white cushion with navy blue stripes, a small potted plant on a wooden side table, a backless wooden dining chair, a decorative tree with pink leaves, a kitchen area with open shelves, and a ceiling with recessed lighting and an air conditioning unit.

With the brief in hand, I'll arrive at your property and get to work. I shoot independently, working at the times of day that show your property in its best light, so there's no need for you to be there.

Within 10 days you'll receive an online gallery to browse and select your favourite images.

Once you've made your selections, your final retouched images will be delivered within 7 days as both high and low resolution digital files.

You now have images ready to use across your listing, socials and beyond.

With your shoot confirmed, it's time to get into the detail. I'll send you a photography brief questionnaire to fill out, covering your must-have images, specific requirements and anything that will help shape your shoot.

Think of this as your chance to walk me through your property before I arrive. The more context you give me -- the story behind the space, the details you're most proud of, the feeling you want guests to have -- the better I can plan and prepare.

This is where we make sure nothing gets missed.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • A typical shoot is a full day and occasionally includes an overnight stay to make the most of the light at different times of day. This gives me time to work across your interiors, exteriors and the surrounding area. Bookings are generally mid week.

  • Not at all. I work independently, so you're free to get on with your day. As long as I have access to the property, I'll take care of everything.


  • Every property is different. The front of the house, outdoor areas and pools look their best when the sun is hitting them at just the right angle - but this isn't always predictable. That's why I spend a full day at your property, and sometimes overnight, to make sure I'm there for the best light conditions whenever they happen.

  • To get the most out of your shoot, it helps to have your property looking its absolute best beforehand. A few things to take care of:

    • Fresh linen on all beds

    • Best hand towels and toiletries displayed in bathrooms

    • Garden tidied and outdoor furniture arranged

    • All light globes working

    • Surfaces clear of clutter and personal items

    The more prepared the property, the more we can focus on capturing it beautifully rather than working around anything that needs attention.

  • Within 10 days of the shoot you'll receive an online gallery to browse and select your favourites. Your final retouched images are then delivered within a week -- as high and low resolution downloads ready to use straight away.

  • I'm based in Melbourne and shoot throughout Victoria. Travel within the Melbourne metro area is included. For regional shoots, a travel fee applies -- this will be outlined clearly in your proposal.

  • I offer a range of packages to suit different properties and needs. The best way to find the right fit is to book a free discovery call and we can talk through what works for you.


  • Yes - in addition to photography I can also arrange floor plans. If you're looking for a complete package for your listing, just mention it when we chat and I'll include it in your proposal.
