Vintage Vibes & A-Frame Angles: A Waterbury Vermont Short-Term Rental Shoot

If you’ve ever dreamed of escaping to a cozy, design-forward A-frame in the woods, this Waterbury, Vermont short-term rental might just be your ideal getaway. And as a Vermont short-term rental photographer, this is the kind of space that makes my creative heart sing.

I recently had the joy of photographing this gem of a rental—a lovingly restored 1970s A-frame cabin that’s been reimagined with vintage flair, bold personality, and a deep appreciation for the art of aesthetic storytelling.

From groovy textures and golden-hour light to the warmth of slanted wood ceilings and retro furnishings, the entire space was curated to feel like a step back in time—with modern comfort layered in.

Why Styled Vignettes Matter in Vacation Rental Photography

Many of the images in this shoot were handheld vignettes—those small, intentional detail shots that help guests feel the personality of a place. Think: a stack of vintage records, soft light spilling across a velvet chair, a cozy corner that invites morning coffee or late-night journaling.

Vignettes are what bring a listing to life. They tell your guests: this isn’t just a place to stay. It’s a place to land, to breathe, to feel at home.

And when paired with wide interior shots and exteriors (including drone options), they create a gallery that connects emotionally and visually—helping potential guests book with confidence.

Why You Should Invest in Professional Photos for Your Vermont Short-Term Rental

Whether you're renting a cabin in the woods, a modern apartment in Burlington, or a lakefront cottage in the Islands, professional photography is one of the best investments you can make in your listing.
