Property Photography for Airbnb launches

For property at a Airbnb launch we plan around three things: opening hours, sight lines and weather windows. Short-let hosts launching on Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking need imagery that survives the tiny hero-crop and the phone-first browse — the shoot is scoped for that reality.

Context

Short-let launch imagery is a crop discipline.

What that looks like on the ground: 20–35 retouched stills, floorplan-aware composition, same-week turnaround. The whole visit is crop-driven — the hero has to work at 400px wide.

Brief

How the Airbnb brief runs.

Constraints

What shapes the shoot

  • •Every frame is crop-tested at Airbnb hero size before we leave.
  • •Sleeping surfaces are dressed fully — Airbnb's listing rules require it.
  • •Amenity detail (coffee machine, hot tub, workstation) is captured close.

Captured

What comes back

  • Airbnb-crop safe hero
  • Every sleeping space
  • Kitchen and bathroom wides
  • Amenity detail frames
  • Optional aerial for setting
