Request availability and a quoteA Split apartment listing lives or dies on its first photo. The market is crowded — thousands of rentals and resale units competing in the same search results — and most of them are sold with phone snaps that flatten the rooms, crush the light, and undersell the location. The booking or the offer is lost before anyone reads the description. Apartment photography is not a cost you add at the end. It is the part of the property that does the selling while you sleep. The work below applies the same interior and architectural discipline I run across Split hotels and restaurants — light planning, honest wide coverage, clean verticals — to apartments, villas, and homes.
How I Approach It
An apartment shoot starts with the room that matters most and the hour it photographs best. I plan around the light each space actually gets — morning rooms shot in the morning, terraces and sea views shot when the light earns them — declutter and lightly stage so the frame sells the space without misrepresenting it, and shoot wide but honest so the rooms read true on arrival. Delivery is sized and labelled per channel: Airbnb and Booking dimensions, agency listing exports, and full-resolution files for the owner's own site — from one structured handover, not a folder of raw frames.
What You Get
- — Listing-ready interiors — wide but honest, shot at the light window each room photographs best in
- — Exports sized and labelled for Airbnb, Booking, agency listings, and the property's own site
- — Lightly staged, decluttered frames that sell the space without misrepresenting it
- — Exterior, approach, and key-view context where the location does part of the selling
- — Bilingual EN/HR captions for owners and agencies working across both markets

Common Questions
Do you shoot for Airbnb and Booking listings or only agency sales?
Both. The shoot is planned the same way — clean, honest, light-led interiors — but delivery differs: short-term rental listings get OTA-sized exports and a lifestyle-leaning edit, while resale and agency listings get a straighter, fuller documentation of every room.
How many photos does an apartment listing actually need?
Fewer good ones beat forty mediocre ones. A typical one or two-bedroom rental needs roughly 15-25 frames that cover every room, the key views, and the approach — enough to answer a guest's questions before they ask, without padding the gallery with near-duplicates.
Do you stage the apartment?
Light staging and decluttering, not full home staging. I'll straighten, remove clutter, and set a few details so the room reads its best — but the frame has to match what the guest or buyer actually walks into. Misrepresenting a space costs more in reviews than it gains in clicks.
Can you shoot several units in one visit?
Yes — and it's the cheaper way to do it. Managers with multiple Split units get planned as a route across the day's light, so a cluster of apartments comes back as one consistent, comparable set rather than shoots that don't match each other.
