Photo and reel sets for cliffside ocean-view resorts

The view is the room. I shoot it.

Cliff villas sell on one moment, the light going down over the water. I plan the whole stay around it.

Quiet weeknights, room only, for two. Everything agreed in writing before we arrive.

What I'd shoot at your property

Questions a GM asks

How does the partnership work?
We agree on a hosted stay in exchange for a defined package of photography and video deliverables. Everything is confirmed in writing before arrival, including dates, content, delivery timelines and usage rights.
Who comes?
Two of us, one room. No crew and no big lighting kit. We sort our own meals and transport.
What do we get?
For two nights: 18 edited photos, 1 cinematic vertical reel and 3 raw clips, delivered within 7 to 10 days of checkout. The 3-night Full Story is 25 photos, 2 reels and 5 clips.
Can we run it in ads?
Your website and organic social are included. Paid ads, booking sites and print are licensed separately, and I'll quote it. I keep the right to show the work in my portfolio.
Will it disturb guests?
I shoot in low-demand hours, never close an amenity, and keep other guests out of frame.
Drone?
Only where it's legal and you're fine with it. If either isn't true, no drone.
Is it in writing?
Yes. A one-page confirmation with dates, room, deliverables, delivery date and usage before I arrive.
Is this a free-stay request?
No. It's a fixed set of deliverables, agreed in writing, for two low-demand nights you choose.
