Professional Airbnb Photographer available right here in Pebble Beach Carmel Monterey and Pacific Grove
Have you been wanting a way to make your Airbnb or vacation rental property stand out? Having professional photos made is the best way to stand out from all the other local listings that use merely unedited cell phone photos.
Experience matters when photographing an Airbnb
I am an experienced Airbnb and vacation rental property photographer, which is different than shooting a house for residential sale. I shoot an Airbnb and vacation listing differently, specifically for appealing to Airbnb guests. I know what to look for as I have been staying at Airbnbs for over 10 years myself! I am available right here based in Pacific Grove and serving the Pebble Beach, Monterey, Carmel, and Big Sur areas.

Likewise, if you want personal photos of your car for display in your garage and office, I offer at your location, at your favorite location, custom personal car photos shoots.
First headshot shoot in the new Pacific Grove photo studio!!
When I got a call from Ashley about a headshot session within a couple of days, normally I would say yes, no problem. But! I had just started to move into a new photo studio here in Pacific Grove, California. I did have all the lighting and equipment needed to make a headshot already in the studio, but also a ton of other stuff too scattered all over the place. So I said as long as you do not mind a bit of a mess, and the smell of fresh paint, then I am available. As you can see, you would never know what things were like by seeing the end result of Ashley’s headshots! Be sure and check out the BTS shot below to see what it looked like outside of the camera’s view. Thank you Ashley for your patience and being a great first client in my new studio!
Making product photography shots of wine bottles in Pacific Grove
Jeff of Tamayo Wines brought several bottles of wine to my photo studio here in Pacific Grove, California to have professional product photos made for use on his website. I used a light cone with two continues lights and shot on a reflective black acrylic base, even though the client wanted the photos edited and delivered on just a transparent background. These kinds of product shoots are always a fun challenge to aim for as much consistency as possible between bottle shots, allowing for variation in bottle size and glass color. Thank you Jeff for choosing me as your product photographer!
Sunset Fine Art Photography of Bird Rock along 17 Mile Drive in Pebble Beach
This April evening out at Bird Rock on 17 Mile Drive in Pebble Beach, California was a rare to the horizon sunset view. I took just my Sony 50mm f/1.2 GM lens, for a different perspective from the typical wide sunset shots. As I was letting the sun go down, I photographed these small flowers first (see the photo story). Many large rocks just off shore in this area function as bird rookeries, so I wonder why this one gets the distinction as bird rock? Maybe it was the first to be named so? As you can see in the background of some of the photos, there are lots of birds that do not get to live this close to where they go hunting during the day and have to fly further down the coastline. How did these birds get to be so lucky? All questions I ask myself!
Headshot shoot tailored for LinkedIn in Pacific Grove California
Natalie contacted me about headshots for her LinkedIn profile. I told her I have photographed dozens of people looking just for better headshots for their own LinkedIn profiles. She came to the photo studio here in Pacific Grove and starting on a white background we found a pose she really liked, so when switching to a black background, we just tried to replicate that pose as much as possible! When you know what you like, you know what you like! Thank you for choosing me as your headshot photographer Natalie!
CSUMB Event Photography when everyone meets for the first time!
It was not just me for the first time meeting all the MBA graduates at CSUMB in Monterey California as I went there for event photography of their graduation ceremony, it was all the graduates first time meeting each other too because it was an entirely online program! So there was the extra excitement of seeing each other in person for the first time, as well as receiving their degrees at this special awards ceremony just for their online MBA program. All that made it a very fun and lively event to photograph first getting some candids as they arrived, then the ceremony photos, and then some group photos with each class getting their chance to celebrate in a group portrait out on the front steps of the very cool looking building entryway at CSUMB. Thank you to the team at CSUMB for choosing me as the photographer for this exciting event!
