Hotel Photographer in Lille & Hauts-de-France
Visuals that sell Lille before guests even arrive
Guests booking a hotel in Lille aren’t looking for a bed, they’re buying an experience: Flemish architecture, brick façades, northern French cuisine, the charm of a neighbourhood Paris doesn’t have.
They make their decision in a few seconds, on an OTA listing or an Instagram profile, before they’ve even opened your website. If your visuals don’t capture that instantly, you lose the booking.
I’m Hedi Hamadache, and I specialise in upscale properties. Among others, I photographed the Clarance, a Relais & Châteaux in Old Lille. I know the codes of the destination, the expectations of premium guests, and how a visual has to be built to convert, not just to please.
What a hotel photo shoot in Lille includes
You’ll find the full details of my hotel photo and video services — here’s what is delivered for a project in Lille.
A complete photo library, ready to roll out
Rooms, suites, restaurant, bar, spa, meeting rooms, façades and exteriors. High-definition files in the exact formats required by OTAs, travel agencies and specialist media. No reprocessing needed on your side.
Native social media content
9:16 and 4:5 formats, vertical Reels, editorial carousels. Your teams receive files calibrated for Instagram and TikTok, not rough crops of landscape images.
High-engagement lifestyle scenes
Breakfast served in a suite with period wood panelling, dinner service in the dining room, a silhouette in a softly lit corridor, a guest facing the rooftops of Old Lille. These are the images that generate shares, comments and direct booking requests. A few examples in my hotel gallery.
MICE and press visuals
Meeting rooms, cocktail spaces, event services. Files adapted to sales kits, MICE tenders, partnerships with works councils and the region’s destination management companies.
Let’s talk about your project
Every project is a story to tell, a world to reveal and an experience to share. Together, let’s turn your property into a memorable and desirable experience.
Why a photographer who specialises in hotels changes the result
The difference with an architectural or generalist photographer comes down to one question: does the image make people want to book?
A shot can be technically flawless and sell nothing. A good hotel lifestyle shoot anticipates the traveller’s journey: the first impression on Booking, the decision confirmed on your website, the desire shared on Instagram. Every scene is designed in that order, with those goals.
Northern light — contrasted in winter, surprisingly soft in summer — also calls for a specific reading. It can be a powerful asset or a visual obstacle depending on how it’s handled. That’s on-the-ground knowledge, not a generic skill.

Who prepares the spaces before the shoot?
Your teams stay in charge (housekeeping, F&B, front desk). I send you a precise checklist for each scene beforehand and work hand in hand with your teams on the day.
Do you also offer video for social media?
Yes. Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts — filming and editing organised during the photo shoot to make the most of the time on site.
