Airbnb & Short-Term Accommodation Photography
With over 13 years of experience photographing interiors, architecture and hospitality spaces, Tanika Blair creates imagery designed to help Airbnb and short-term accommodation properties stand out in an increasingly competitive market.
Drawing on her background in Interior Design and extensive experience photographing hotels and resorts throughout Australia and internationally, Tanika understands how to capture not only the features of a property, but the experience of staying there. Her approach focuses on atmosphere, natural light, thoughtful styling and carefully composed imagery that invites potential guests to imagine themselves in the space.
Whether it's a luxury holiday home, boutique cabin, coastal retreat, farm stay or unique accommodation experience, Tanika creates a collection of images that tell a story and showcase the property's personality, design and lifestyle appeal.
Unlike traditional real estate photography, her work has a more editorial and hospitality-driven feel, helping hosts attract their ideal guests, increase engagement and present their property at the highest standard. From hero exterior images and beautifully styled interiors to the small details that create a memorable guest experience, every photograph is created with the goal of elevating your listing and strengthening your brand.
For property owners who have invested time, thought and care into creating a beautiful guest experience, professional photography is one of the most valuable tools for ensuring that experience is reflected online.
Drone photography and videography is also available to show the location and lifestyle.
Another great airbnb shoot for Ranger Property, this time their new 2 bedroom apartment on Ruskins St, in Byron Bay.
5 years of photographing Ranger Property’s Airbnbs, and I always love to see what Tania’s able to do on a tight budget.
This is the Local House Airbnb in Byron Bay.
We were so thrilled to work with this beautiful family, and talented Interior Deisgner to capture the essence of this new home, on our favourite island, Stradbroke Island, on Minjerribah land.
This is our own newly renovated home, which is now available on airbnb.
We absolutely adore this home of ours, and are so thrilled to be able to share it’s beauty for the summer while we are travelling in our caravan for a couple of months.
Your shoot will be the best it can possibling be, if you have no restrictions on time, and you allow me to be at the home from sunrise to sunset. I do a lot of planning before the shoot, to predict the natural sunlight, but sometimes you just can’t predict exactly how it’s going to hit.
2 brothers are the masterminds behind this beautiful home. One half of the duo being Driftwood Design & Construct. It was a pleasure to spend the day at this Suffolk Park property (and come back for further shots of the pool in some really good midday sunlight, to get the pool glistening).
You’ll notice Drone photos in this gallery as well, something I am so excited to now be able to offer my clients, being able to provide that higher perspective to your projects is game changing.
This Byron Bay Airbnb, is located in Suffolk Park, a large home, great for families, or a group of friends … further details over here.
A stunning light-filled Tweed Coast Airbnb, with room for the whole family. A pleasure to capture this peaceful accommodation in my home town.

What a difference professional photography can make to the feel of your Airbnb, before your guests even arrive. Don’t skimp on photography after you’ve spent hours upon hours creating the perfect holiday accomodation.
I adore shooting these clever properties, thoughtful Renos by this talented duo, not spending outrageous amounts as they are all intended for Airbnb, but my gosh do they look good after their make overs, head over to their instagram for before and afters.
Such a pleasure to photograph all 3 of these holiday accommodations for Endeavour Holiday Homes, all available on Airbnb. Located in Tweed Heads and Kirra.
