Hotel Reels Photographer — London

Cinematic Reels · Editorial Photography · Full Usage Rights

Reels and stills from one shoot, one creator

Mariya Harley is a London hotel photographer and Reels creator who delivers both moving and still content from a single stay: 2–3 cinematic Instagram Reels of 15–30 seconds plus 20–30 retouched editorial photographs, with full commercial usage rights for the hotel. Most hotels hire a photographer and an influencer separately; this combines both into one collaboration with one consistent visual direction.

Reels are where hotels win attention in 2026 — short, cinematic, location-tagged video that travels. With 10+ years of editorial photography behind the camera and a 105K travel audience concentrated in the Gulf and Mediterranean, the output is broadcast-quality and built to be shared.

Proof

What a two-night residency returns

A single two-night stay at Rixos Premium Dubrovnik produced 170K reach, 3,300 likes and 300 saves — alongside 20–30 retouched editorial photographs and 2–3 cinematic Reels the property keeps with full commercial usage rights. That is the model: professional assets your marketing team uses everywhere, plus distribution to an audience that is already planning luxury travel.

Frequently Asked

Hotel Reels — common questions

How many Reels are included?

A standard hotel residency includes 2–3 cinematic Reels of 15–30 seconds each, optimised for Instagram and TikTok, alongside 20–30 editorial photographs and Stories coverage with location tags. All come with full commercial usage rights for the hotel’s own channels.

How much does hotel content creation cost?

A full-day editorial hotel shoot in London typically runs £1,500–£3,500 depending on deliverables, usage rights and crew. Gifted collaborations — a two-night stay minimum — are available for boutique and luxury properties in exchange for editorial content, social distribution and full commercial usage rights.

What is included in a hotel content package?

A standard package includes 20–30 retouched editorial photographs (suite, F&B, common areas, architectural details), 2–3 cinematic Reels of 15–30 seconds, Instagram Stories coverage with location tags and a booking link, plus full commercial usage rights for the hotel’s website, OTAs and brochures.

Why does a Gulf audience matter for a hotel?

Gulf travellers are among the highest-spending luxury guests in Europe and the Middle East. Mariya Harley’s 105K-follower audience on @mariyaharleylife is concentrated in Saudi Arabia (~43%), the UAE (~12%) and Qatar (~9%), so a collaboration puts a property directly in front of that exact market — something few UK-based photographers can offer.
