Using Airbnb Photographer...

[Jonathan315]

Hey all! I'm thinking about trying to have an Airbnb photographer take some new photos of my listing. My photos are okay, but a little dark and not as inviting as I'd like. The photographer option wasn't available in my area for a while, but now I'm getting the prompt that it might be in my area again.

Airbnb states that they will choose the 12 best photos from that photographer and upload them automatically to your listing. I mean, I'm fine with that, but my question is: can you still add more of your own photos on top of those? I have several good photos on my listing (sunsets, the area, etc.) that I would like to keep using. I really just need the help with my interior photos.

Thanks for any info you can provide to clarify!

My photos are a mixture of professional and my own, @Jonathan315.  I quite like the mixture.  One difference is that you do not own the Air BNB photos and cannot use them outside the listing.
