HOLIDAY ACCOMMODATION SHOOTS IN FRANCE

In week 16 (April), I’m back in the Dordogne and Lot-et-Garonne for a full week of holiday accommodation photography in France 🇫🇷
A number of shoots are already booked, and I currently have two spots available.
During this week, I create atmospheric, storytelling imagery for holiday homes, gîtes, boutique B&Bs and small château hotels — photographs that feel calm, elegant and inviting, and that help you attract your dream guests.
If your accommodation is rooted in character, light, texture and a sense of place — and you feel drawn to my timeless, gentle style — this might be the perfect moment to update your visual story.
Feel free to send me a DM, and I’ll happily share my photoshoot brochure with you.

In just a few weeks I’ll be back in the beautiful Dordogne region of France, capturing exquisite hideaways and boutique stays through my lens.

If you have a holiday accommodation in this part of France and would love warm, storytelling photography to bring your online presence to life, this might be the perfect moment. Imagine inviting images that truly reflect the atmosphere of your place and make guests long to step into your world.

The photographs in this carousel were taken at the lovely @_les_moments 

If you’d like to see more of the holiday rentals and unique accommodations I’ve photographed, wander over to my other account @escapeintothelight 

Would you like to know more about arranging a photoshoot for your own holiday rental in the Dordogne? Feel free to send me a DM – I’d love to capture your story too. A series of warm, storytelling photographs taken at Les Moments in the Dordogne, France. The images capture the charm of a boutique holiday accommodation with natural light, soft details, and inviting spaces. Perfectly styled to reflect the atmosphere of a French countryside hideaway, these photographs show the beauty of holiday rentals in the Dordogne region. taken in Dordogne, France by @escapeintothelight

This photo was taken at the Petit Trianon, once the private retreat of Marie Antoinette in the gardens of Versailles – a house that whispers stories of elegance, solitude and escape.

I have such a deep love for visiting and photographing castles, stately homes and beautifully preserved historic buildings.

Over the coming days, I’ll be in Amsterdam to explore a few Golden Age canal houses, visit a palace, and wander through some of my favourite museums. Of course with my camera! taken in Petit Trianon by @escapeintothelight

Reflect the charm…

Mirrors are more than just functional pieces; they can add depth and intrigue to your photography. For your next photo, try using a mirror to capture a glimpse of your accommodation.

Position your camera so the reflection reveals part of the space – perhaps a cosy reading nook, a beautifully made bed, or even a window letting in soft, natural light. This technique not only showcases the room but also adds a layer of curiosity and artistry to your image.

Reflections have a way of drawing viewers in, making them feel as if they’re discovering something hidden or special about the space. It’s a subtle way to show more while keeping the focus on the atmosphere you’ve created.

I’d love to see what you create! #yourescapeintothelight by @escapeintothelight

Ready for a photo challenge?

This week, I’ll be sharing daily ideas to help you capture your holiday accommodation in creative ways – perfect for sharing on your social networks.

- HERE’S YOUR FIRST IDEA - 

Take a photo looking from the outside in, with the door slightly open. This simple technique adds a sense of curiosity, inviting your viewers to step inside and explore the cosy world you’ve created.

Would love to see your photo with the hashtag #yourescapeintothelight by @escapeintothelight

A hidden gem for the @ribbonsandcases retreat that I’m co-hosting with @amylouisehatch 

Nestled in the heart of the Dordogne, we’ve found the most exquisite hideaway for the Ribbons and Cases Retreat this May. 

A stunning chartreuse, a mini-château, surrounded by the beauty of my favourite region in France.

We knew this was the perfect location—a house full of character, charm, and endless inspiration. Every corner of this place is photogenic, making it the ideal setting for a week of connection, creativity, reflection, soulful business talks & mini-brandshoots for the attendees.

Curious to see more from this ESCAPE? And want to know more about this retreat? Check out @ribbonsandcases

Every holiday accommodation is more than a place to sleep—it has a story.

To create a collection of atmospheric photos of your ESCAPE, it’s essential to write your ESCAPE story first. 

By crafting a clear story that reflects your rental’s charm, personality, and atmosphere, your photos become more than images—they become an invitation.

Putting your story on paper helps you capture the unique essence of your accommodation, resulting in photos that inspire your dream guests to book their stay immediately.

Oh, and it’s not just for photos! A well-written story is incredibly helpful for crafting engaging text for your website and social media posts too.

Want to learn how to use storytelling as the foundation for your holiday rental photography and write your unique ESCAPE story? Read the full blog on my website (link in profile)

I have carefully put together a 47-page e-book for you, packed with questions to answer as a guideline for building your story, sample texts to get you started and lots of photos for inspiration.

For Marielle owner of @_les_moments, I designed a new brand identity & conceived a new name that reflects the exciting new direction she is taking with her ESCAPE

Marielle not only welcomes guests to her charming gîte but also offers relaxing massages both in her beauty salon and on location. Her talent extends to the kitchen, where she prepares incredible meals for her guests and private dinners at unique locations.

Together with my dear friend, colleague, creative director @amylouisehatch , we did a brand shoot to bring Marielle her vision to life. The result is a visual story that showcases her warmth, proffesional, and dedication to creating memorable experiences for her clients.

Thank you, Marielle, for allowing me and Amy to help shape this exciting chapter for Les Moments.

A lovely review from Els, @lagrandemaurague

Last September, @amylouisehatch and I had the pleasure of photographing Els’s beautiful B&B in the Gers region of France. 

Her kind words mean the world to us:

“From the very first moment, it felt relaxed yet professional. Krista’s photography talent and Amy’s styling skills came together in a perfectly organized session. The atmosphere was fantastic, filled with enthusiasm and creativity.”

Our aim is always to highlight the unique charm and atmosphere of every escape we photograph. Seeing Els’s reaction to the images reminds us of why we love what we do.

Thank you, Els, for trusting us to capture your vision. It was a joy to bring your stunning hideaway to life through our work.

If you’re ready to showcase your holiday accommodation with professional and atmospheric photography, we would love to hear from you. Feel free to send us a DM

The beautiful @my_little_escape_in_france has been featured in @mfchmagazine , and I couldn’t be more delighted.

Capturing this stunning retreat together with @amylouisehatch was an honour, and seeing it in the pages of such a lovely publication is something I’m truly proud of.

AUTHENTIC PHOTOGRAPHY FOR YOUR HOLIDAY ACCOMMODATION

Capture your atmosphere 

Whether you’re hosting an Airbnb, running a cozy bed and breakfast, managing a boutique hotel, or renting out a charming holiday home, your escape deserves a captivating collection of atmospheric and inviting photos.

Why authenticity matters

In a world filled with filtered images and idealized representations, authenticity is the guiding principle. What your potential guests see in your photos should accurately reflect the atmosphere and serenity they can expect during a stay at your home.

No illusions, just pure beauty

No illusions, no exaggerations—just pure, unadulterated beauty. Let your photos speak honestly to the charm and warmth of your space.

Interested in a photoshoot?

Feel free to send me a DM, and I’ll share my information brochure.
