PORTFOLIOS
Jeff Caven shoots Hotel and Resort Photography;
Architectural and Interior photography; Food and Lifestyle images for Resorts, Hotels and Spas for luxury Resort, Hotel and Spa Owners (interesting how that works); and whatever else any General Managers, Marketing Directors, Ad Agencies, Public Relations firms, Designers, Travel Agents and Creatives worldwide might need. Whew! How's that for a keyword loaded Search Engine Optimizing statement?
Capturing the imagination of your destination
is more than some overused phrase; it's what we do (the imagination part, not the overused part). Our goal is to express the concepts of your property and its features. Concepts like Relaxation, Comfort, Sanctuary, Excitement, Luxury and Customer Service—all part and parcel of the photography we produce. That, and it sells rooms.
We create images that work.
They get up early and stay up late. They work on your website, work in your collateral materials and in your advertising. The question is how to make these images work even harder? Well, they can put in some extra time providing the SEO incoming links from the Architect who designed or redesigned your property. They can dance in front of Art and Photo Directors from leading magazines giving them fresh ideas for articles, blurbs and stories. They can get off their butts and send a postcard to Mom. They can help travel agents understand your property. In other words, they can do whatever you need them to do.
Iconic Images, Branding Images.
It all sounds important. But what's really important is that the image works. It's proven images sell rooms. This image of the Fechin exterior was an Iconic image for the famed Fechin Inn. Conde Nast Traveler used it when they bestowed their coveted world's best 500 Hotels.
Fresh Images.
While some images might be strong enough to last for years, it's still important to change the image content of your website. Google loves to see new images, (even if the little spider bots can't see the images, they know what size they are and can tell if they are changed). They want to know you are paying attention.
Consulting:
Maybe you have a few questions like...what are your image needs? Who took this photograph that's in your files. Do you have usage rights? Is it an Iconic image or just old? Do you have the photographer's information? What information do I need to negotiate usage (yes we have to talk intellectual property) We can provide answers so you don't end up like my friend Sam who spent $48,000 for 6 not so hot (and copyrighted) wedding photos one of his employees used without permission. We use Webpostion.com to analyse your level of SEO. Jeff is available for assignments and travels worldwide taking Hotel and Resort Photographs.
Let's Toot your Horn:
Clients I talk to don't always like to brag about the money and time they give to charity. Working with us puts us in touch with your charities. We will contact the people you support and offer our support. Then we can put the images on this site and blog about it. Think of all those beneficial links. Sounds like a win/win to me.
This business specializes in Resort and Hotel photography.

The Studio is in Tacoma Washington just down the Road from Seattle. Come by for Coffee.
