Curved backyard pool with a stone patio and lounge area, surrounded by trees in fall colours
The pool at a country villa we photographed in October. For a rental, the amenities are what guests are booking.

A homebuyer visits before they sign. A guest almost never does. They book your place from a phone, trusting the photos with their weekend and a few hundred — or a few thousand — dollars. Good rental photos win the click in a crowded search, and honest ones lead to stays that match expectations, which is what earns five-star reviews.

Let guests walk through before they book

Click, then drag to stand on the patio. One stop of the Davis Dr Villa tour.

A 360° tour answers the questions that stop a booking: where the stairs are, who shares a bathroom, how far the deck is from the pool, whether the bunk room fits adults. Guests arrive knowing what to expect, and fewer of them message you with questions first. See 360° virtual tours for how it works.

Your own booking website

Airbnb doesn’t currently let hosts embed a third-party tour, and its rules restrict outside links in listings. Your own website has no such limits: your photos, drone video and tour in one place, with direct bookings and no platform fees on those guests. We set it up end to end and transfer everything into your name. Read why in Your Airbnb Listing Is a Sales Channel, Not Your Business.

  1. Make it guest-readyFresh linens, beds made tight, towels folded, the kitchen set the way guests will find it.
  2. Turn everything onEvery lamp and overhead light on, blinds open, the fireplace lit if you have one, the hot tub cover off.
  3. Get the outside readyPool clean, cushions out, patio furniture set, the hose and bins out of sight.
  4. Remove personal itemsFamily photos, mail, toiletries and anything you wouldn’t leave out for a guest.

Where we work

Travel fees may apply outside London; we’ll quote them up front.

Frequently asked questions

Will the photos work on Airbnb, VRBO and Booking.com?

Yes. You receive full-resolution edited photos that you can upload to any platform and use on your own website.

Is the drone included?

Yes. Aerial drone photos and drone video are included in the $350 package for rentals up to 2,500 sq ft.

Can I show the 360° tour on Airbnb?

Not inside the listing: Airbnb doesn’t currently allow third-party tours. Most hosts show theirs on their own booking website, which we can build for you.

How long does the shoot take?

Usually 2–4 hours, depending on the size of the property and how many amenities it has.
