Jayden Collier Photography Garden Route Guesthouse Photographer

GARDEN ROUTE GUESTHOUSE PHOTOGRAPHER

I make guesthouses look so good, people book it for their honeymoon. (Some of them haven't even found their spouse yet.)

“IT LOOKS EVEN BETTER IN PERSON.”

​If guests say that at check-in, it’s a compliment and a warning.​

It means your photos undersell the place: the room looks smaller, darker or more plain online than it really is. The guests who would have loved it scrolled past - and you only meet the ones who took a chance.

 

​And that's only the start. Fewer clicks means fewer bookings, and booking sites tend to push listings that get fewer clicks further down the page - meaning less people see you.

 

That's what I fix. I photograph your guesthouse in the best light possible to help it stand out better online, get more clicks, and help increase bookings.

​

I handle the planning, shooting, and editing. You pick a date and prep the rooms. You get publish-ready images in 3-5 days, and if you’re not proud to publish them, I'll provide up to 2 reshoots without charging my rates. You’d only cover travel costs.

UNSURE? START WITH A FREE LISTING PHOTO AUDIT.

I'll record a 5-10 minute video going through your photos online - showing what's good, what's worth fixing, & how to improve it yourself with just your phone. For free.

SONAS BOUTIQUE HOTEL

I had a great experience working with Jayden and can highly recommend him. His communication was excellent - always responsive, and easy to work with from start to finish. The quality of his photos was outstanding. He has a great eye for detail and captured exactly what I was hoping for (and requested). The final results were professional, well-edited, and delivered on time. What stood out to me was his level of service. Jayden didn’t just deliver the photos and disappear — he stayed in touch during the editing process, provided updates throughout. Overall, a very professional and reliable photographer who clearly takes pride in his work. I would definitely use him again and recommend him to anyone looking for high-quality photography with excellent service. - Lize Van Rensburg

PRICING (BOOK HERE)

The investment depends on your specific needs, so I can’t give a one-size-fits-all quote. I use a short form to make this fast and simple for you - once you submit it, I’ll review it and see if we’re a fit.

 

If we are, we’ll hop on a quick call to finalize the deliverables, and then I can give you an accurate quote.
