Airbnb Photography: Upscale Poconos Retreat with Twilight and Drone Photography in East Stroudsburg, PA

This project features professional Airbnb photography for a luxury short-term rental home located in East Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, in the heart of the Pocono Mountains. The objective of the photoshoot was to produce a visually compelling, guest-focused gallery that highlights both the interior lifestyle experience and the property’s private wooded setting, helping the host stand out in a competitive STR market.

The shoot included a full collection of Airbnb interior photography, showcasing an open-concept living and dining area, a modern chef’s kitchen with waterfall-style countertops, stylish cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances. Wide-angle compositions were used to enhance room flow, ceiling height, and natural light, while carefully framed lifestyle and detail shots emphasized finishes, textures, and guest amenities that increase booking appeal on Airbnb, Vrbo, and Booking.com.

Multiple bedrooms were photographed to highlight comfort, privacy, and guest-ready presentation. Clean lines, fresh linens, balanced lighting, and warm accent tones were used to create an inviting atmosphere that resonates with families, couples, and group travelers searching for a premium Pocono Mountains retreat. Bathrooms were captured with crisp, distortion-free compositions to showcase modern fixtures, tiled showers, and spa-inspired finishes.

The outdoor areas were a major focus of this short-term rental photography project. Professional exterior images highlight the expansive deck, screened porch, hot tub, and a dedicated firepit lounge area surrounded by mature trees. These lifestyle-driven outdoor photos visually communicate the property’s entertainment value and year-round usability, which is a key conversion factor for Airbnb listings in the Poconos.

To elevate the listing even further, aerial drone photography was captured to showcase the home’s forested setting, lot layout, and surrounding neighborhood. Twilight photography was also included to present the property in a warm, cinematic evening mood, creating highly clickable hero images that perform exceptionally well as Airbnb cover photos.

All images were professionally edited using advanced Airbnb photography and short-term rental photographer workflows, including exposure blending, color correction, perspective control, and selective retouching. Minor visual distractions were removed to ensure a clean, guest-ready presentation while preserving a natural and realistic look.

The final result is a cohesive, high-impact Airbnb photo gallery designed to improve listing visibility, increase click-through rates, and drive more direct bookings across Airbnb, Vrbo, and Booking.com.
