Venue Photography for Airbnb launches
We photograph Airbnb launch briefs for venue photography the way we would want ours photographed: quickly, respectfully, well. 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.
Concretely, interior + exterior + aerial pack for marketing site and brochure. The whole visit is crop-driven — the hero has to work at 400px wide.
