Hi @Connie586,
If you're looking for affordable professional photographers, there are a few good options you can explore:
Local Listings: Try checking out platforms like Thumbtack or Bark, where you can find photographers with a range of pricing options. Many offer specific packages for real estate or Airbnb photoshoots.
Airbnb’s Photography Service: Airbnb sometimes offers its own professional photography service in certain areas at a reasonable price. Check the “Professional Photography” option under your account to see if it's available near you.
Social Media: Look on Instagram or Facebook by searching hashtags like #JacksonvilleRealEstatePhotography or #JacksonvilleAirbnbPhotos or #RealEstatePhotography to find photographers showcasing their work and rates.
While professional photography can be a good investment, you don’t necessarily need to hire someone if your budget is tight. You can try enhancing your existing photos by editing them to improve brightness, contrast, and saturation, which will make your space look more inviting. However, you definitely need to capture more angles and views to showcase your property fully.
Extra Tips:
Title & Description: The title and description could be stronger. Try creating a more engaging title that highlights a key feature or attraction nearby. In your description, be sure to cover all amenities and answer any questions a guest might have upfront.
Profile & Guidebook: Don’t forget to update your profile and guidebook. A friendly, detailed profile builds trust with potential guests, and a guidebook with local tips (restaurants, attractions) adds extra value to their stay.
By making these adjustments and improving your photos, you'll boost your listing’s appeal. Good luck!
