Stunning images of extraordinary spaces. That is what I create. I specialize in commercial photography - images for VRBO and Airbnb owners, rental management companies, the hospitality industry and real estate. I have a natural ability to compose images - layering the affects of perspective, distance and light to create rich, magazine quality compositions. Great photography always has had more to do with the photographers talent than the tools he uses.
I custom design each photo shoot to fit each individuals needs. I believe in strong communication, action, attention to detail and commitment to providing you with the highest quality work to use to augment your marketing materials, secure new clients, win awards and boost your professional image.

I have a passion for photography that began early in my life. I combine respect for photographic fundamentals with a strong work ethic and an embrace of the latest technology.
I began my serious study of photography at the University of Kansas and graduated in 1971 with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Journalism from the William Allen White School of Journalism and Mass Communications at KU. I also hold a Bachelor of Science Degree in Education from KU.
I use my 30+ years of experience to make images that create emotion and motivate people to take action. I specialize in stylish, sophisticated magazine quality interior and exterior photography for VRBO and AirBnb owners, rental management companies, the hospitality industry, architectural and real estate industries, interior designers, stagers/stylists, commercial spaces and builders. Commercial photography is my only business.
What do my clients think of my work? I'll let them tell you in their own words:
"What a beautiful Job you did! These are even better than I hoped."
- Jim Chesnutt
VRBO Client
"I cannot recommend Michael Yearout Photography highly enough. He is the complete package- talented, experienced, and professional. In a a world where it is difficult to get people to return phone calls and complete work on time, Michael Yearout is head and shoulders above the rest of the pack. He actually answered the phone when I called and was able to instantly provide me with an accurate quote based on my description of the job. We scheduled two work days- he was on time for both and worked quickly and efficiently. After the initial photography was complete, he delivered BEAUTIFULLY edited images with lightning-fast turnaround. I will definitely be working with Michael again."
-Babs Wood
Airbnb Client
"Micheal did a great job taking photos of my AirBnb. He really captured how light and bright it is, and that was really important to me. We worked together remotely and everything was smooth and easy. I'd highly recommend him!"
-Erin Nelson
Airbnb Client
"Mr. Yearout provided us with excellent photos of our home in Breckenridge for posting on a short term rental site. The photographs displayed our home beautifully, and captured the beautiful scenery as well. In fact, the photographs are so good that we have already discussed a second set of photographs for the Summer season. Since the new photographs have been posted, the number of inquiries and the interest in the house has noticeably increased. We highly recommend Michael Yearout for photography not only because of the quality of the work but also because it was a pleasure to work with Michael."
-Christine Alverez
VRBO/HomeAway Client
"Michael did an outstanding job with the photos of our home. The lighting is beautiful. He has an excellent eye. In addition, he is a pleasure to work with."
-Nancy Mavergeorge
VRBO/HomeAway Client
"Michael has done several photo shoots for my vacation rental business. He is a true professional from initial communications to providing the final images. Michael is reliable and responsive during the scheduling process and he provides fabulous images! I have many older, dated (challenging) properties, and Michael does wonders with lighting and staging to make them look as good as possible. I'm sure the older, less fancy properties are not a photographer's dream job, but Michael handles these with the same care and detail. He also does exterior shots of the buildings and surroundings, including gorgeous mountain view shots. He works independently with little direction, and provides very quick turnaround! I've been extremely happy with every project Michael has done for me and feel that his pricing is quite reasonable. I would highly recommend Michael Yearout Photography to anyone needing professional photography services."
-Leigh Wadden
Copper Condos
"Michael Yearout was really wonderful to work with taking my interior design website professional pictures. He has a long list of amazing experience within Summit County all around and knows how to capture the interior of a home just beautifully. I would highly recommend him for your photographing needs and he will make the difference in how many will view your business for future jobs."
-Interiors Ruhl
"We recently used Michael Yearout to photograph one of the homes that we had just finished building. He was extremely professional and easy to work with. He did an excellent job getting great shots in spaces that were very small with bad lighting. I highly recommend using him for your photography needs."
-Triology Partners
"Michael does so much more than just take pictures. He notices the details. He moves things around and adds props to make each photo an image – a composition that attracts viewers and makes them want to see more. He has a style that makes his images stand out. He is a stager – he knows when to move things and where to move them. He controls the light, not only knowing the best time of day to schedule a photo shoot, but when to supplement the available light with his big toolbox of flashes and modifiers.
He is my photographer of choice, the only photographer I use. What more can I say, except that he is a talented, experienced professional in his field. If he is not too busy shooting my listings, I would recommend you contact him. You won’t be disappointed. I know I have never been."

"Thank you so much for your hard work, detail, quick turn around time, creative eye and for just being such a pleasure to work with!
I know I can count on you to continue to provide me with totally stunning images and videos no matter how difficult the property is to shoot.
