The Importance Of Professional Hotel Photographers Is Second To None

By Patricia Cooper


Consumers book their hotel rooms nowadays has changed incredibly over the last few years. Of course, this is all thanks to the Internet. Today, people look online before booking a room, to ensure that this is the space they want to spend their time away from home. So, the importance of professional hotel photographers is second to none as they are the ones that can capture the essence of the room and the entire hotel.

Every potential customer will use these photographs as their first impression. So, all areas and features should be photographed. There should be a marketing plan developed, so the photographer will have the opportunity to photograph accordingly for both the website and brochures, if necessary. Unfortunately, those who choose lesser qualified professionals may pay a high price, as it can turn guests away.

It's a small price to pay for success. The manager involved in making the decisions regarding the choice photographer should interview numerous potential candidates. Looking at their portfolio allows the manager to observe their various samples of previous projects. Some may be filled with wedding photography, which would be vital to a resort who caters to weddings. If the photographer is lacking in this department, they may need to look for another who can provide the services.

Room staging is crucial, and must be done according to the targeted clientele. Sometimes, it's the way the curtains are drawn, where other times it's that and a combination of the bedspread folded down perfectly that indicative of comfort and relaxation. A tray with food and a flower may prove the accommodations are more luxurious and romantic. Those that aim for business people would generally use businesslike objects, such as a laptop placed on a table that overlooks a gorgeous view.

Again, it's all a part of the bigger scheme of the marketing strategy. That said, the photographer needs to use his creativity to show rooms or suites in their best light, so to speak. And on the subject of light, it has to be absolutely perfect, otherwise too much will be lost.

Failure to use the proper lighting may cause the outside light to have adverse effects both indoors and out. Beyond that, there is other important photographic equipment involved, such as wide angle lenses. Such lenses are capable of making a room appear larger and even more comfortable, regardless of its size.

Plus, through the help of a creative photographer the hotel can generate more income in a he is knowledgeable in advertising and marketing. That's because he should be able to understand the average age of the guests and target that age group. Moreover, you'll have to choose a model, either male or female, or both, that would speak to this age group.

A highly qualified pro like this should be able to seek out the best views and potential settings of the resort, as these will always be used to sell their image. Moreover, the marketing manager should stipulate their policy about how they purchase and present their photographs. It's usually in their best interest to choose a photographer that can provide all types of digital files so that they may be used in various formats. This will allow them to use them on their website, in print, as for brochures, and so on.
