In this episode, I will discuss my thoughts on Airbnb vs. Real Estate Photography. While Airbnb and real estate photography aim to attract potential customers, their approaches differ significantly. Airbnb photography focuses on creating an emotional connection and showcasing the lifestyle a property offers, while real estate photography prioritizes accurate representation and highlighting key selling points. Understanding these differences is crucial for crafting effective visual marketing strategies that resonate with your target audience.

[00:00\] This is David Pizzat with The Circle Formula, and here we are creating another podcast. This is going to be an interesting one. As a photographer, I've been a photographer for 25 years, and I photograph many commercial and residential properties. But today's topic is an important one.

[00:25\] Today's topic will be Airbnb versus Real Estate photography. Okay, so that's Airbnb photography versus Real Estate photography, guys. Let me say there is a distinct difference between the two regarding showcasing properties through photography.

[00:53\] The goals of Airbnb hosts and real estate agents couldn't be more distinct. While both aim at potential customers, their target audience, objectives, and visual strategies differ significantly. So, in this podcast, we'll be talking about the critical differences between Airbnb photography and real estate photography, and we'll also highlight their unique purposes and techniques.

[01:20\] I am an Airbnb photographer. I do Airbnbs all over Texas. I've been asked to visit Dallas, Austin, New Braunfels, and San Antonio. I have people tell me we hire you because you specifically do Airbnb or short-term rentals, which I photograph for Verbal and hotels.com, and all that good stuff. So this is what this podcast is about, and I'm going to go ahead and jump in so we can understand both of them and their different perspectives.

[02:16\] Let's get started with Airbnb photography. What is Airbnb photography? What am I thinking as an Airbnb photographer? What are my goals when I go out there to achieve and capture when I go to, say, an apartment, a home, a condo, a mansion, a ranch-style home, or whatever your Airbnb is?

[02:43\] Regarding Airbnb photography, I like to emphasize the emotional appeal of your place. If I could get that emotional appeal and images that are inviting, they're going to be where customers are coming back over and over again. If I could create those images, then it would be a win-win for my host and the owner of this Airbnb.

[03:22\] Targeting families, couples, or solo adventurers, right? And those images need to appeal to those specific audiences. Airbnb photography attracts guests seeking a particular experience.

[22:48\] I will leave you with the differences between Airbnb and real estate photography. I hope that you have enjoyed this podcast. I hope that you can take something from it. Please comment below. Do you agree or disagree, or should they be treated equally? You let me know your thoughts. I would love to hear from you.

[23:15\] Guys, have a wonderful day. It's great being on this podcast and sharing what I know as a professional photographer. You guys take care and have a wonderful day. Goodbye.

Personal branding photography is a type of professional photography designed to help individuals establish and promote their brand. It involves capturing images that reflect the individual's personality, style, and professional image. These images are often used on social media profiles, websites, marketing materials, and other platforms where individuals promote themselves and their work. The goal of a photographer is to tell a story about the individual, showcase their professional identity, and make their brand more relatable and memorable. The photos often capture not only the person, but also elements of their work, interests, and environment. Click here to learn more.

Great photos are the cornerstone of a successful Airbnb listing. They're often the first thing potential guests see, and they play a massive role in whether someone clicks to learn more or keeps on scrolling. However, it's not just the quality of your photos that matters – the order in which you upload them can also influence your booking rate.
