PHOTO TIP: Photographing hotel bathrooms

It's not the most exciting part of the hotel - but it's essential for people with access needs. They have to make sure they can use the bathroom safely and conveniently. By using photographs, you are answering their questions simply and quickly. 

Here are some tips to get the photo.

  • use a wide-angle lens so you can capture the floor, shower and toilet in one frame

  • allow the potential customer to see the space and size of the area

  • if you don't have access to a wide-angle, try getting the image from different angles to show the different areas

  • keep your vertical lines (the walls) straight

  • photographing from the doorway is often the best place

When booking a shoot, ensure your Photographer knows these requirements. If not, they will photograph the bathroom in the most flattering way and perhaps not consider this.
