Interiors Photography in Southampton

I'm Ryan Stanikk, an interiors photographer based in Southampton, and I know that photographing interiors -whether for a hotel, interior designer, estate agency or a business -is about more than just showing a space. It's about presenting it with accuracy and atmosphere. I pay close attention to straight lines and true-to-life colours, ensuring each image feels professional and trustworthy. By carefully balancing natural ambient light with the subtle use of flash when needed, I capture rooms that feel bright, inviting, and true to how they look in person.

Hotels, Restaurants & Designers

I work with hotels, restaurants, interior designers, estate agents and property developers across Southampton, Hampshire, Winchester, Portsmouth and London. Previous clients include the Carlton Hotel, Novotel, Mango Thai Tapas, Arrowsmiths, The Bell Inn and a range of residential interior design projects. Whether you need images for booking platforms, press kits, Airbnb listings or your own website, I shoot with those end uses in mind -accurate colour, clean verticals, and compositions that work across every format.

Common Questions About Interior Photography

Do you use flash for interior photography?

Sometimes. I always work with the available natural light first, because that's how the space actually looks and feels. If a room has dark corners or mixed lighting that needs balancing, I'll use off-camera flash subtly to fill those areas without making the image look artificial. The goal is always a result that feels bright and true to life.

How do I prepare a space for a photoshoot?

Keep it clean and tidy, but don't overthink it. I'll rearrange small details on the day (cushions, table settings, that sort of thing) to get the composition right. For hotels and restaurants, the space should be set up as it would be for a guest. For residential projects, remove personal clutter but leave the design features that tell the story.

Can you shoot interiors and food on the same day?

Yes, and most hospitality clients do exactly that. Combining food photography, interiors and exteriors into one visit is the most efficient way to cover everything. I'll plan the day so we shoot rooms in the best light and work around the kitchen's schedule.
