You’ve probably thought:
“I can just take photos with my iPhone…”
“I’ll snap a few of the rooms and call it a day…”

But here’s the truth: you’re not selling a room. You’re selling an experience.

Most short-term rentals are only booked 30% of the time. That’s $33k a year instead of $110k.
And the #1 thing that’s holding them back?
Poor visuals.

You Didn’t Buy an Airbnb to Break Even — Let’s Maximize Your ROI



In 2024, our San Diego Airbnb stayed consistently booked and brought in around $230,000 in revenue. Working with Chelsea helped us position the property as a high-end experience rather than just a place to stay. She crafted the perfect hero images that made our listing stand out and truly sell the lifestyle. This has been a long-term investment that’s easily outperformed what we’d make with a traditional rental. We’ll absolutely be hiring Chelsea again for our next property.

"Within just 3 days of uploading Chelsea’s photos, our listing was saved 76 times — the impact was immediate."

 Chelsea has the kind of eye for detail that I just don’t, and her work truly transformed my listing. She captured the space beautifully and made everything feel warm, inviting, and high-end. Communication was fast and easy, the entire process was seamless, and the extra resources she provided were incredibly helpful. If you’re on the fence — book her. It’s 100% worth it.

"Photos are everything when it comes to standing out on Airbnb, and I knew investing in great images would pay off — but I was still a little hesitant about the cost. I’m so glad I went for it."

With over 10+ years in editorial and content creation, I’ve directed, styled, and strategized for some of the biggest names in travel and hospitality like Marriott, The Venetian, and Gaylord.  I worked alongside a Forbes-ranked Top 10 travel influencer, where I curated Airbnb roundups that generated over $300,000 in bookings and featured some of the most sought-after stays in the world

I blend creative direction with strategy and data to turn casual scrollers into booked guests. Because your Airbnb shouldn’t just look good — it should perform.

Let’s brand your space with intention so it becomes the destination, not just another option.
