Why us

Why Scottsdale Properties Choose Booked Visual

Scottsdale guests compare listings on a phone. Old Town group houses, McCormick Ranch family rentals and North Scottsdale homes with desert views do not sell on the same photo.

Old Town, McCormick Ranch, North Scottsdale

Each one books a different guest. The shot list changes with the neighborhood, and all three are covered from this page.

New hosts, license first

The checklist on this page links the City of Scottsdale license page and the Arizona TPT license, then points you at the photo prep list. It is general information, not legal advice.

Styling when the house needs it

Styling starts at $349 and is quoted before the shoot. See Airbnb staging.

Pay when the photos are ready

No deposit. 1,000+ shoots. 10 or more units: send the list for a batch quote.

Every photo, no upcharge

Unlimited photos, hand-edited. Download the full-resolution set. Galleries stay live 90 days.

Scottsdale notes

New Scottsdale host? Start here

A short license checklist, the neighborhoods we photograph, and when to book the shoot. This is general information, not legal advice. Confirm each step on the official page linked beside it.

License checklist for a new host

Three steps, then photos. (1) Arizona transaction privilege tax license. The city asks for the TPT number on the city application. Apply at AZTaxes.gov. The Department of Revenue describes online-lodging advertising rules on its online lodging marketplace page. (2) A City of Scottsdale license for each property rented for less than 30 days. The city says owners who rent for 30 days or longer do not need a city license through this process, and it lists the annual fee as $250 per property. Source: Information for Owners and Operators. (3) Photo-ready house. Furnish it, then use the getting ready checklist. If the home has a pool, hot tub or spa, the city's pool barrier page is the source for what has to be in place. The city page also covers neighbor notice, insurance and county registration. A longer write-up of those steps is on the Scottsdale STR license checklist.

Old Town, McCormick Ranch, North Scottsdale

Old Town group rentals need every bedroom and the rooms where everyone gathers. McCormick Ranch golf and family houses need the yard, the pool and how the rooms connect. North Scottsdale homes sell on space and desert views, so the deck and the outlook get their own frames.

Styling, if you want help on shoot day

Styling starts at $349 and is quoted before the shoot. Nothing is charged until you approve the quote. See Airbnb staging.

10 or more units

Send the list for a batch quote on the property manager page. You pay when the photos are ready.

Event season

The busy stretch is January to March. In 2027, Barrett-Jackson runs January 23 to 31 at WestWorld, the WM Phoenix Open plays TPC Scottsdale February 8 to 14, and Cactus League games start February 19. Have the listing photos live before guests book those weeks.

How do I book a Scottsdale shoot? +

Book online, pick the home size and a date, and confirm. On shoot day the photographer arrives and photographs the home. Have the license steps and the photo prep done first so the pictures match the house guests will see.

Do I need a Scottsdale license before I list a short-term rental? +

The City of Scottsdale says owners must obtain and maintain an annual city license for each property rented for less than 30 days, and that the application needs an Arizona TPT number. The city lists the annual fee as $250 per property. Owners who rent for 30 days or longer do not need a city license through that process. This is general information, not legal advice. Confirm it on the city page linked in the checklist above.

What should Old Town, McCormick Ranch and North Scottsdale photos show? +

Old Town group homes should show every bedroom and the shared rooms. McCormick Ranch photos should show the yard, the pool and how the rooms connect. North Scottsdale photos should give the deck and the desert view their own frames.

Can you style the home before the shoot? +

Yes. Styling starts at $349 and is quoted before the shoot. You approve the quote before anything is charged.

What happens if I'm not happy with the photos? +

If something is off with the photos, we fix it free and fast. Small retouches usually come back within about 3 hours. Extra edits you ask for, such as object removal, are $5 per photo. If the unit is not ready, the reschedule is free, but a return trip is billed. If the shoot is paid upfront and canceled at least 12 hours before the shoot time, we issue a refund.
