To pay homage to World Photography Day this 19 August, Airbnb has rounded up a list of the most picturesque Airbnb Stays for a perfect staycation to create and capture beautiful memories with your loved ones.
For Siargao-based photographer Oli Bayer and his wife Elaine Bayer, capturing travel photos is a great way to capture precious family moments, and fill their house with their favourite memories together.

“Traveling as a family is important for us because we get to share new experiences together – even if it’s just a staycation in the same town or country,” says Oli. “With our two year old daughter, everything happens so fast and becomes a blur even without realizing it, so it’s really nice to have photos to look back on about the wonderful experiences we shared as a family.”
Elaine adds, “Having a husband as a photographer is perhaps an underrated experience. I love how Oli is able to capture such candid family moments, and so beautifully too!”
