Hospitality Package (simple, clean, and professional)
Geared for Accommodation Establishments

Your business deserves more than a handheld cellphone video

with poor audio, bad lighting, shaky footage, and little or no editing.

If you want to stand out from the competition and capture the attention of potential guests, you need professional content that builds confidence in your brand.

That's where I come in.

I create interview-based promotional videos filmed on location using professional cameras, lighting, and sound equipment. During post-production, the interview is combined with beautifully shot cinematic footage of your establishment, allowing viewers to experience your accommodation while hearing directly from the people behind it.

Why an Interview-Based Approach?

Many travellers have experienced the disappointment of arriving at accommodation that looks nothing like the photos they saw online.

An interview changes that.

Instead of simply showing a building, you introduce the people behind the business. Guests can see your personality, your passion, your hospitality, and your professionalism. They can read the subtle cues that build confidence—your body language, your enthusiasm, and your genuine commitment to providing a great experience.

People don't just book accommodation—they buy trust.

That is the strength of this interview-based marketing strategy.

Combined with cinematic visuals that showcase your rooms, surroundings, and facilities, the result is a powerful promotional video that creates an authentic connection with potential guests long before they arrive.

ONE DAY OF SHOOTING

PHOTOGRAPHY PACKAGE

Photography Package (documentary style capture) - IMAGES ONLY
Geared for Festivals, Corporate Events, Product Launches & Community Events

My style of photography is documentary and journalistic. Rather than simply taking attractive photographs, I aim to tell the story of your event. I capture the genuine moments, the emotions, the atmosphere, and the interactions that make every occasion unique.

Instead of directing people into staged poses, I work quietly in the background, documenting the event as it naturally unfolds. The result is an authentic collection of images that allows people to relive not only what happened, but what it felt like to be there.

Every image is photographed in RAW format and individually colour graded during post-production.

Think of RAW as the digital equivalent of a photographic negative. Unlike a standard JPEG, a RAW file contains far more image data, allowing me to recover highlights, lift shadow detail, correct white balance, and produce richer, more accurate colours without sacrificing image quality.

This means your final photographs aren't simply edited—they're carefully crafted to achieve a polished, professional look while preserving the natural atmosphere of the event.

The result is a gallery of high-quality, professionally graded images that not only document your event but tell its story with clarity, authenticity, and impact.

The Packgage

You'll Receive:

1. A minimum of 120 professionally colour-graded, high-resolution images delivered in an online gallery, ready for web, social media, and print.

2: Web-ready and high-resolution versions of every image.

3: Black & white artistic edits of selected images.

4: Hero images—a handful of carefully retouched standout photographs.

5: Commercial usage rights for marketing and social media.

6: Backup of the images for a period of 6 months.

ANITA VIVIERS - EXCLUSIVE IBOGAINE RETREATS

Having a podcast on your website can be a fantastic addition for any small business. At the start of 2025, I decided to give it a try — though I must admit, I was quite nervous at first about being in front of the camera. Chris Wait immediately put me at ease, helping me relax and simply be myself. Since my podcast was added to my website, my business has grown steadily, and within six months I became fully booked — nearly six months in advance! Thank you, Chris, for your professionalism and for producing such a well-curated, high-quality podcast experience.
