I was asked to photograph a lovely three bedroom flat near Murrayfield stadium, Edinburgh. The apartment \u00a0was on the short let market, where it is essential to do your property justice on airbnb or booking.com. The photographs are the only impression potential customers will get before deciding to book or not.<\/p>\n

\"Living

When you get a quote from a property photographer, you should ask yourself this question: how many more extra bookings would I need to generate to recoup my investment?<\/p>\n

For this property, the answer to that question turned out to be one extra night. It is impossible to compare the number of bookings generated by amateur photographs and professional ones, but I imagine a couple of extra nights in a year is quite likely an underestimate.<\/p>\n

\"Bedroom
All three bedrooms in this flat are spacious and lovely.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Bedroom
Always like to take close ups of the bed.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A touch of red in a picture almost always works. It certainly does here<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

In this case, it is absolutely clear that the professional photographs helped the landlord make money. \u00a0A wise investment indeed.<\/p>\n

\"Bathroom

\"Outside
Not only is the flat lovely, in a modern building, but the tenants also get access to a nice garden<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
