Video content ideas for cafés & brunch spots ☕️📸 (save this)

Most café content focuses on the finished food and drinks and the problem is people want to see so much more than just the final product 👀

If you want content that stands out, start showing the experience around the food 👇🏻

🥐 Show food being made in the kitchen
🍟 Capture movement with tosses, pours & slow motion
☕️ Show drinks being made, not just served
👋 Include staff and people in the content
🍽️ Film dishes being placed on tables
🥂 Capture interaction, cheers and lifestyle moments
🏡 Showcase different seating areas and spaces

For this shoot at Lula the goal wasn’t just to make the food look good. It was to create content that felt fun, social and immersive while showing everything the café has to offer

Because people don’t just visit for a coffee. They visit for the atmosphere, experience and the people they’re sharing it with 🤍

Got a favourite idea from the post? 👀

Photographers, videographers and content creators. Here’s some tips for your next brunch photoshoot:  1️⃣ Don’t just stand in one spot and film everything at eye level. Mix 45° angles, flat lays, close-up detail shots and wider atmosphere clips throughout the shoot.

2️⃣ Use placing shots, pours, pans and interaction to create movement naturally

3️⃣ Where possible, work with natural window light and use additional lighting to add contrast, shape and texture to the food. If it’s a dark location I’ll use a continuous light with a soft box positioned to the side

Restaurants as well, make sure you’re doing this! ⬇️

The main thing that was said on my recent trip to was that the whole team was like a massive family at the hotel. And that really came across in the service and experience of the full trip to Sicily 🇮🇹

People forget that the experience is connected to the people behind it. People book holidays based on the service as well as the location and look of a place 🥂

For this shoot, the focus was on capturing:
✨ staff interaction
🍽️ service moments
🤍 personality
📸 real experiences
🌅 atmosphere

Because that’s what makes hospitality feel memorable

And for photographers/content creators, the same rule applies. If your travel content feels flat or isn’t getting engagement, start showing more people, interaction and emotion instead of just aesthetic locations 👀

People connect with people first. The hotel comes second.

Save this for your next hotel shoot or content planning session 👊🏻

Instead of basic hotel photos…try these ideas instead 👀📸

Social media photography should be about showing the space, the food, the views all being enjoyed and used 👊🏻 especially when you’re in Sicily 🇮🇹

The content that actually performs is the content that makes people imagine themselves there ✨

Instead of just photographing the room ➡️ show the view guests wake up to 🌅
Instead of just the cocktail ➡️ show it being made 🍸
Instead of a flat lay of food ➡️ show the atmosphere around dinner 🍽️
Instead of an empty pool ➡️ show people actually enjoying the space 🏊
Instead of only interiors ➡️ capture lifestyle and interaction 🤍

That’s what turns hotel content from “nice photos” into content that actually creates emotion and drives bookings 📈

in Sicily was the perfect example of this style of content. The coastline, activities, sea views, food and atmosphere made it easy to capture the full experience rather than just the hotel itself 🌴

Save this for your next hotel shoot or content planning session 👊🏻

How to create content that converts views into bookings for luxury hotels👇🏻 (make sure you save)

People don’t book luxury hotels just because of the room. They book because of how the stay makes them feel. And that’s the key thing, we have to connect with viewers and create emotion in content. Especially travel content ✈️

The immediate thought is ‘I have to go there’ then saves, likes, shares will ultimately drive into bookings for your hotel, resort or restaurant 👏🏻

For this stay at the goal wasn’t just to capture the property. Tt was to capture the full experience. From waking up in the deluxe sea view suite to long dinners at and views across the mountains and coastline, every part of the stay felt cinematic.

The best hotel content always sells:
🌅 atmosphere
🍽️ experience
🏊 relaxation
🍷 lifestyle
✨ emotion

Reel, carousel and story ideas for luxury hotels ✨ and was the perfect photography destination for it 🌅

Luxury hotel content should sell more than just the room it should capture the feeling of the stay. That’s what makes people book, it’s the overall experience that people buy into ✈️

Slow mornings, long dinners, sunset cocktails, pool days, quiet moments around the property 🏝️

Sa Pedrissa was the perfect setting for this style of content. The views, architecture, atmosphere and overall experience made every moment feel effortless to capture 👏🏻 From immediately arriving and the views of the Spanish mountains and coast it’s literally a photographers dream destination. 360 degree views.

I stayed in the deluxe sea view suite which meant every morning I was greeted with the most amazing sunrise over the mountains to wake up to ☀️

And a personal highlight was dining at the restaurant at the hotel. Was great to get in the kitchen and get some photography done. More details to come but everything was 10/10 (still jealous of how my past self ate on this trip) 😂

Save this for your next hotel shoot or content planning session 👊🏻
