How a hotel photo shoot works
Are you currently preparing for a hotel photo shoot? Or are you thinking about how and when to produce your new professional hotel photos?
Then this blog post is for you! Because in this hotel photography blog post, we share our experiences from over 20 years of professional hotel photography with you.
We have been successfully photographing hotels for over 20 years and have learned a thing or two about how a professional hotel photo shoot runs most efficiently and produces the best results.
1 - The preparation of the hotel photo shoot is crucial
As the saying goes: "Hope is not a strategy." This also applies to professional hotel photo shoots. For this reason, it is essential to clarify the most important questions in advance, work out an image concept and create a detailed plan for the hotel photo shoot.
2 - The location must be perfectly prepared
Because on the day of the hotel photo shoot, time is effectively money. All too often, time is lost because the curtains still need to be smoothed, the bed linen re-steamed, the props (flowers, vases, ...) are not yet in the room and the fruit plate has been forgotten to be ordered in the kitchen.
To avoid this loss of time and money, we at Piquant Production prepare checklists for the respective set-ups and locations for our hotel photo shoots. However, the implementation of these and the preparation of the various locations must be planned and coordinated by the hotel itself.
3 - A well-coordinated team makes the difference
At Piquant Production, we make sure that the hotel photo shoot team is well-coordinated and works well with your hotel team. This allows us to view locations, prepare them for the shoot and dismantle them at the same time.

4 - Ongoing checks and adjustments during the hotel photo shoot are essential
During the hotel photo shoot, we constantly check whether the images produced meet the client's expectations. This allows us to receive and incorporate feedback and input from the hotel team and carry out an initial quality check.
5 - After the hotel photo shoot comes the preparation
This consists of an initial selection of the hotel images and their matching, the revision and finalization of the images and data storage.
Depending on the order, we also prepare professional hotel photos for hotel customers in various formats and for various channels (offline, online, social media, etc.).
Our top recommendation for you
The preparation of a hotel photo shoot is crucial! Who/what target group are the pictures for? On which channels and for which marketing tools should they subsequently be used? What is the image concept?
What is the unique story that these images should tell? As these questions are of the utmost importance, this phase is central to Piquant Production and our image concepts are individually developed.
