Listing photography and lifestyle stills for sportfishermen, yachts, center consoles, and charter vessels — lit, framed, and color-graded for YachtWorld, Boats.com, BoatTrader, and your own brokerage marketing.
A buyer scrolling YachtWorld at 9pm makes their shortlist in 15 minutes — from a thumbnail.
The first impression a buyer gets of your listing is a 400-pixel thumbnail in a search results grid. Sharp, clean, properly-exposed photos hold attention long enough to earn the click. Murky iPhone shots taken in marina shade quietly get skipped — the boat may be perfect, but the listing dies before the buyer ever sees the spec sheet.
Marine photography is its own discipline. Glare off the gel coat, sun on fiberglass, motion at the slip, mixed light between cabin and exterior — we shoot for those specific conditions every week, and we deliver photos that look like the boat actually looks on a good day.
For a single boat listing.
Listing set plus short-form.
The whole content kit in one visit.
A clean three-quarter exterior of the boat at the slip or anchored — the photo that lives in the thumbnail and the marketing flyer.
The captain’s seat with electronics, navigation, and visibility — the photo serious buyers spend the longest time studying.
Interior living spaces wide-angled and properly lit — the rooms that close the lifestyle sale, not just the spec sale.
Master and guest cabins shown with the bed made, lighting balanced for both warm interior and natural window light.
Clean mechanical compartment shots that show maintenance, hours, and how the boat’s been kept — what brokers and surveyors want.
Drone shot showing the vessel from above — lines, hull condition, layout, and how she sits in the water.
Salt water, harsh light, narrow cabins, and motion at the dock — marine photography fights conditions a house never will.
Most listing photos fail not because the boat looks bad, but because the photographer didn’t solve the problems unique to the water. That’s where experience matters.
White gel coat, chrome, and water reflections require polarizers, careful angles, and timing the shoot for the right light.
Cabins, galleys, and staterooms are small spaces with mixed lighting — we shoot with wide architectural lenses and proper exposure blending.
Surrounding boats, marina infrastructure, and tide-affected angles are part of the brief — we frame around them.
Cameras, lenses, and drones are all rinsed and protected after every shoot. We don’t lose gear, you don’t lose photos.
Under 35’ vessels typically wrap in 90 minutes. Sportfishermen and mid-size yachts in the 35-65’ range take 2-3 hours. Larger yachts may take a half day, especially with lifestyle scenes or twilight exteriors.
Dockside coverage is standard. Underway shots — the boat in motion from a chase boat or drone — are included when conditions allow, and drone aerials come with every boat package.
Common in luxury yacht listings — we coordinate around the owner’s schedule, work in stages, and shoot discreetly. Pre-shoot walkthrough helps us plan around occupied spaces without disrupting the owner.
Yes — every package is delivered with platform-sized exports as standard. Tell us which platforms the listing is going on and the gallery includes the right files for each.
Yes — engine room, generator, electrical panel, and mechanical detail shots are included on Sportfisherman and Yacht packages. Serious buyers and surveyors look closely at these, and they signal a well-maintained boat.
