We photograph the rooms, the common areas, the details and the views, so the listing shows the hotel as it is.
Rooms, common areas, decoration details and views, photographed for the launch of Once Upon Lisboa.
“Professionalism, availability and transparency throughout the process. When faced with an unexpected situation, the team responded quickly and with commitment. The result met our expectations.”
Photographed to show the size, the light and the layout.
Reception, lounges, corridors and everything a guest walks through before reaching the room.
The spaces and, if you want them, the dishes, for the menu and social media.
Façade, pool, garden and terrace, at the time of day when they look their best.
Why it matters
On Booking.com and the other booking platforms, your hotel appears in a list with the others in the same area. The photographs decide whether a guest opens your page or moves on to the next one.
Phone photographs and stock images put your hotel on the same level as the rest of that list.
Yes. We agree the spaces and the timing of each shot with you, so the shoot does not clash with the hotel's service.
Before opening, with the room empty, or during service, with a small team that does not get in the way. We decide it with you before the shoot.
It depends on the size of the hotel, the number of rooms and areas, and whether the restaurant and photographs with people are part of it. You receive a fixed quote before you decide, and it does not change halfway.
It depends on the number of rooms and areas. For Once Upon Lisboa we did two full sessions, the first for the launch and the second to add to the hotel's image library.
The rooms, the common areas, the restaurant and bar, the exteriors and the details agreed in the shot list. You receive the photographs retouched, in the formats for the web, print and social media, with the usage rights written into the proposal.
Photography covers the booking platforms, the press and the website. Video shows what the stay feels like, for the homepage, the ads and Reels. When you book both, they come from the same days, with one team and one plan.
Yes. Hotel Casa Palmela and Once Upon Lisboa belong to the same group, and Once Upon Lisboa called us because of the work we had done at Casa Palmela.
Yes. We photograph hotels across the whole country, and the travel is listed separately in the proposal.
Yes. Once Upon Lisboa opened in September 2025, and on opening day its photographs were on Booking.com, Airbnb, social media and the hotel's website. We plan the shoot and the edit backwards from your date.
