Hotel, Horeca and Residential Photography

For Hotels

Models appear in the interior and exterior of your hotel: rooms and suites, the lobby, food and beverage, the spa and wellness area, the casino, the pool and the city around you.

For Horeca

We focus on the dining experience: the food, the drinks and the atmosphere around the table.

For Residential Development

We create the visuals that show what the community offers: the surroundings, the amenities, the clubhouse and the in-home amenities.

How a Hotel Photoshoot Works

02

Proposal

Within a few hours you will receive a quote and proposal with details about the project, including the cost of the photoshoot, deliverables, terms and deadlines, so we can determine if we are a good match. Once you approve the proposal, we will send you an invoice and you will sign the contract. 50% of the payment is required to reserve the day and time and to begin the project. The remaining 50% is due the day after the shoot.

05

Private Gallery

Within 5 days after the shoot, you can choose your favourite photos from a private gallery. The photo proofs appear with watermarks. In line with your deliverables agreement, you can select a certain number of photos, and additional photos can be purchased if you wish.

The final digital photographs are retouched within 10–14 days and sent by email in high resolution, in colour. Now it’s time to use your new content on your website, social media, marketing and more!

What Our Clients Say

“We chose Sandra Herrero Photography for our hotel photoshoot based on her website and social media platforms. Sandra did not disappoint. Her team and she came over for a 1-day shoot this past summer. To complete the assignment, the models, make-up artist and hairstylist and Sandra put in countless hours, and they did it with grace. The results are amazing. Several of our guests have already commented on our website that the pictures on it attracted them to our hotel. These results were beyond my expectations. Thank you Sandra for all your hard work. Looking forward to planning the rest of the hotel.”

María del Mar · Marketing ManagerHotel Pestana Riverside Amsterdam

Hotel Photography FAQs

Do you work with hotels short and long term?

Yes. We partner with hotels and Horeca companies short and long term, and we handle the entire creative process: ideas, production, models, styling, studio, location scouting, shooting and retouching.

What are the fees for additional shooting hours?

Additional shooting time is 80€ for each additional 30 minutes and 160€ for each additional hour (excl. VAT).

Do you shoot on weekends or public holidays?

We normally do not shoot on public holidays, but there may be some exceptions. Weekends are our days off, so we can keep a good work-life balance and give our best on every shoot. Occasionally we are happy to accommodate clients who cannot make it during the week, such as for events, commercial shoots or private clients. We are available on Saturday or Sunday when it works best for you. We recommend shooting early in the morning, because some locations get busier later. A weekend fee is added to your quote when you choose a Saturday or Sunday.

How much do additional retouched photos cost?

In the quote we prepare for your project, we include the price per photo. In general, the price depends on the nature of the project, the size of the brand, the intended use of the photos and the level of professional retouching required.

Do you offer a rush service?

Yes. On top of the photoshoot price, the 3-working-day turnaround costs 260€ (excl. VAT). Let us know in advance if you need the rush service, so we can confirm our schedule allows it.

Is there a travel fee?

Extra fees may apply outside Amsterdam, Utrecht and Hilversum. Outside the Netherlands, travel costs are agreed per project.
