Hospitality
Rooms people want to be in, photographed that way.
Laura Rossi photographs restaurants, event venues, private clubs and hotels in Toronto. The approach comes from a decade of interiors and event work: spaces shot in the light they were designed for, tables and details styled without looking styled, and the events a venue hosts photographed as proof of what a full night looks like.

FAQ
What does a hospitality shoot cover?
Three layers: the rooms themselves in their best light, the details that sell a booking like table settings and the bar in focus, and the venue at work, either during real service or a styled seating. Most venues need all three; the quote scopes each before the shoot.
Can you shoot during service?
Yes, and it's often the strongest material: full tables photograph better than empty ones. Coverage is planned with the manager so no guest is identifiable without consent, and quiet corners are shot first so the kitchen never waits on a camera.
How often should a venue refresh its photography?
When the room, the menu or the season changes, and at least once a year. Booking platforms and social reward fresh imagery, and a standing refresh arrangement costs less than shooting from scratch each time. Email laura@sp-ce.co to plan a cadence.
