HOTELS & HOSPITALITY, MONTPELLIER & HÉRAULT
Hotel photographer
in Montpellier
Make people want to unpack their bags. I photograph and film hotels in Montpellier and the Hérault to reveal their spaces, their teams and their atmosphere.
Let’s talk about your project ↗Capture the spirit of your hotel
A stay often begins with a discovery through images. The light in a room, the character of a shared space, the role of dining and the presence of your team help convey the experience guests can expect.
Plan the shoot with a selection of photographs tailored to your hotel, a programme for the grounds and gardens and consideration of the images on your direct booking website.
My work is to create a series true to the place, connecting wider views, details and people. We define the spaces the shoot will cover: rooms, suites, reception, grounds, restaurant or wellness areas, depending on your hotel.
Preparing the spaces, choosing the moments
The programme takes into account room availability, light and your team’s activity. We identify the spaces to prepare, priority shots and time slots that fit your operations.
Photography can be complemented by a presentation film or short sequences. For dining, explore my images of L’Essentiel, the restaurant at Hôtel La Plage. The scope of a hotel shoot is shaped around the spaces you want to showcase.
Ongoing support through the seasons
To keep your imagery fresh over time, I offer ongoing support from €500 excluding VAT / month : ten three-hour photo sessions spread over the year, including selection, editing and access to your client gallery. A dedicated video session can occasionally replace a photo session, for an additional €350 excluding VAT. Travel expenses are charged separately.

Images shaped around your welcome
Before the shoot, we discuss the spirit of the place, your guests and the channels you want to supply with images. I prepare a list of views and scenes, then plan photography around the light, available rooms and your team’s schedule. Wide views, details and moments of life come together in a series consistent with your identity.
After selection, I refine framing, exposure, colours and distracting elements to show the place at its best while staying true to it. Photographs are delivered in high resolution and web-ready formats; usage, timing and scope are set out in the quotation.
Let’s plan your establishment’s images ↗
From your hotel website to booking platforms
Images are planned around their use: introducing the hotel, room pages, your Google Business Profile, social media or booking channels. We agree on useful formats and intended uses before the session.
Would you also like to feature your team or restaurant? These photographs can form part of the same project, depending on the agreed programme. Explore my photography portfolio and my approach to presentation films to prepare for our conversation.

The place in motion
Let’s plan your shoot
How should we prepare a hotel for a photo shoot?
We draw up a list of priority spaces and scenes. Prepared rooms, decorative details, team availability and the best light are considered before the session to organise the shoot.
Can you arrange a shoot while guests are present?
We plan the programme with your team to accommodate occupancy and protect guests’ comfort. Scenes featuring identifiable people are prepared with the necessary permissions.
How long does a hotel shoot take?
The duration depends on the number of spaces, scenes, people to photograph and any videos. A shot list helps estimate the time needed and agree on a schedule that fits your activity.
Can the images be used on booking platforms?
Tell me which platforms and other channels you plan to use during our first conversation. Delivery formats and the corresponding usage rights are defined in the quotation, according to the project.
How can I get a quotation for my hotel?
Tell me your location in the Hérault, the spaces to cover, your distribution channels and your deadline. Together, we will clarify preparation, deliverables and the photography or video scope before pricing the project.
Your establishment, your images, your schedule: let’s talk about your photography or video project.
