Photography Services for Hotels, Restaurants and Lifestyle Brands

Photography that tells your story

Co Studio specialises in photography for hotels, restaurants, bars, cafés, travel brands, sustainable fashion, lifestyle brands, and wellness spaces. We create cinematic, social-first photography that goes beyond product shots — capturing authentic moments, design details, people, and places in ways that feel aspirational, responsible, and timeless.

Whether it’s a design-led hotel in London, an independent café in Norfolk, a sustainable fashion brand, or a cultural festival, our photography positions your brand within lifestyle-driven narratives that build trust and inspire audiences.

Why professional photography matters

  • First impressions drive conversions. Hotels with professional photography see up to 15% higher booking ratescompared to amateur images (Expedia).

  • Consumers buy with their eyes. 75% of online shoppers say product photography influences their purchase decision more than reviews or descriptions (Shopify).

  • Social-first is key. Instagram, TikTok, and Pinterest are driven almost entirely by visuals — high-quality lifestyle photography increases engagement, saves, and shares, building organic reach.

  • Responsible brands need responsible storytelling. For sustainable and ethical brands, strong photography communicates values of quality, craft, and transparency in a way words alone can’t.

Our approach

We combine creative strategy, art direction, and photography to produce images that feel both authentic and aspirational. From shooting in design-led hotels to documenting independent cafés and makers, we curate real backdrops and contexts so your brand is captured in natural, lived-in environments.

We don’t just take photographs — we create visual stories that align with slow travel, sustainability, design, and conscious living.

Frequently Asked Questions

What industries do you specialise in?

We focus on hotels, restaurants, bars, cafés, sustainable fashion brands, lifestyle and wellness spaces, travel and cultural institutions, and independent makers. Our expertise lies in storytelling-driven photography that elevates design-led and responsible brands.

What makes your photography different?

We blend editorial style with commercial needs. That means every shoot feels aspirational enough for Instagram and editorial, but structured to deliver real ROI across websites, press, and campaigns. We also integrate products into real-life backdrops (e.g. travel guides, retreats, hotels) so the story feels lived, not staged.

Do you provide social-first content?

Yes — we supply portrait-format images optimised for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube Shorts and Pinterest, as well as cut-downs that are ready to post.

Can you combine photography with video?

Absolutely. Many of our clients book combined shoots, where we deliver both high-quality stills and short-form video clips, giving you assets for multiple platforms from one session.

Do you work with sustainable brands?

Yes — we prioritise ethical, sustainable and responsible brands. That includes eco-hotels, slow-fashion brands, independent cafés, makers, and wellness spaces who share our values of quality and conscious living.

How much does professional photography cost?

Pricing depends on the scale of the project, location, and deliverables. Our starting point is £750/day, with packages for hospitality shoots, product lifestyle shoots, and campaign photography.

Where are you based? Do you work internationally?

We are based in Norfolk and London, UK, and we work across the UK and Europe. We regularly shoot in cities, coastlines, and rural locations — wherever your story needs to be told.
