OUR COLLECTIONS
 
 
Every Soma Stills project begins with creative direction. We don't simply document spaces—we style, curate and craft imagery that evokes atmosphere, helping boutique hotels, interiors and conscious brands create visuals that feel considered, editorial and timeless.
 
FAQ
 
Do you travel for photoshoots?
Yes. We regularly travel for shoots across the South Coast, Southern Highlands, Sydney and beyond. Travel requirements are quoted separately depending on the location.
Can I use the photos for social media and marketing materials?
Yes. Your images are yours to use across your social media, website, Airbnb or listing, booking platforms, marketing and PR. You’re free to share and use them without needing to ask us for approval each time.
Can you help with styling?
Yes. Styling is an important part of creating cohesive imagery. We can work with what you already have and suggest simple additions or changes to help each scene feel considered and natural.
For more involved shoots, we can also discuss sourcing flowers, food, props or other styling elements as part of the production.
What if another business wants to use my images?
If a third party — such as a builder, landscaper, furniture brand, tourism company or magazine — wants to use your images for their own advertising, marketing or commercial purposes, they’ll need their own licence.
We’ll arrange any additional licensing directly with the business, so there’s nothing you need to manage.
How long will my shoot take?
This depends on the size of the property and the scope of the brief. Smaller shoots can often be completed within a few hours, while larger content productions may require a full day or multiple shoot days.
We’ll recommend the appropriate amount of time when preparing your quote.
What happens after I book?
Once your shoot is confirmed, we’ll work with you on the details — including locations, priorities, styling, shot lists and timing. Our goal is to make the process feel organised and effortless from planning through to delivery.
Can you photograph both interiors and lifestyle content?
Yes. We love combining considered interior imagery with lifestyle moments to create a more complete visual story. Depending on your brief, this might include details, food and drink, people, slow moments, outdoor spaces or the surrounding landscape.
Can I add more images after my shoot?
Absolutely. If you decide you’d like to expand your final gallery, additional edited images can be added to your collection after the shoot.
Which package is right for me?
It depends on the size of your space, how much of the property or brand you’d like photographed, and how much content you need.
Our smaller package is ideal for a focused collection of key spaces, while our larger packages allow us to photograph the property more comprehensively, including details, styling and lifestyle moments.
If you’re unsure, we’re happy to recommend the most suitable package based on your brief.
When will I receive my images?
Your final images are professionally edited and delivered via an online gallery. Turnaround times vary depending on the size and scope of the project and will be confirmed when you book.
Can you photograph my property for Airbnb, a hotel or accommodation listing?
Absolutely. We work with boutique accommodation, hotels, holiday homes and short-stay properties to create imagery that captures both the space and the experience of staying there.
Do you photograph brands and products?
Yes. We work with conscious and design-led brands to create imagery for websites, social media, campaigns and ongoing content libraries. Brand shoots can combine product, interiors, lifestyle and editorial imagery depending on your needs.
I’m not sure exactly what I need. Can I still enquire?
Of course. You don’t need to have everything figured out before getting in touch. Tell us a little about your space, brand or project and what you’re hoping to create, and we can help shape the right approach.
