Everything you need to know about working with me

-
Absolutely. I frequently capture boutique stays and short-term rentals for owners and agencies who want to elevate their listings with refined, editorial imagery.
Process & Preparation
-
Before the shoot, I’ll share a short preparation guide and schedule a planning call to discuss styling, timing, and any key design features to highlight. Spaces should be clean, styled, and free of clutter on the day.
-
Half-day sessions run up to four hours on-site; full-day sessions up to eight. Timing depends on the size of the property and the available natural light.
-
If conditions could impact the result, we can adjust timing or reschedule. I’ll always recommend the best approach for your project and the lighting it deserves.
