Interior · Hotel · Real Estate · Photographer · Vietnam | Hanoi
From Saigon's high-rise skyline to Hanoi's lakeside villas, I document hotels, residences and resorts the way they were designed to be seen — shot on location across Vietnam's two biggest cities and its growing coastal resort belt.
What I Photograph
Vietnam's property market moves fast — new openings in Da Nang, residential towers rising in District 2, boutique villas tucked along Hanoi's lakes. I work alongside hotel GMs, developers, architects and designers to keep pace with it: brand-standard hotel galleries, real estate sets that help units lease faster, architectural documentation for landmark builds, and drone coverage where a project genuinely benefits from the air-to-ground story.
Lobby to ballroom, shot under Vietnam's often-tricky mixed lighting — fluorescent corridors, tropical glare through floor-to-ceiling glass, dim F&B ambience. Delivered to the standard hotel groups expect for OTA listings and brand decks. Past clients include Hilton, Marriott, One&Only and Sofitel.
Apartments, penthouses and villas for developers and agents working District 1, Thao Dien and Thu Thiem in Saigon, plus Hoan Kiem and Tay Ho in Hanoi. Images built around how each unit actually sells — natural light, room flow, the view that closes the deal.
For architecture firms and master developers documenting Vietnam's rapidly changing skyline and coastal builds — facade lines, material detail and the kind of light that makes a finished structure read as intended, not just photographed.
Restaurants, retail fit-outs, co-working floors and corporate offices, shot for tender documents, annual reports and the kind of marketing assets that need to hold up at both billboard scale and Instagram crop.
Licensed aerial work across Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Da Nang, Phu Quoc and Nha Trang — flythroughs, coastline establishing shots and rooftop-to-lobby sequences that pair naturally with the ground-level interior set, planned around Vietnam's airspace and permit requirements.

About Tom Jose
Tom Jose has spent over a decade photographing hotels, homes and buildings across Asia and the Gulf, and Vietnam has become one of the more frequent stops on that circuit — split between Ho Chi Minh City's pace and Hanoi's older, quieter streets.
On the hospitality side, he's shot for groups including Hilton, Marriott, One&Only, Sofitel and Anantara — work that ends up on OTA listings, brand campaigns and the kind of marketing decks that need images to do real selling, not just look nice.
Real estate work takes him into Ho Chi Minh City's tighter, more competitive pockets — District 1 and Thu Thiem — and Hanoi's Hoan Kiem and Tay Ho, shooting for developers and agents who need a listing to move quickly.
For architecture firms and developers, he documents buildings and facades as Vietnam's skyline and coastal resort belt keep expanding — timed to the light each structure was actually designed around.
A licensed drone pilot as well, he regularly combines ground-level photography with aerial coverage on the same trip — useful for anything from Ho Chi Minh City high-rises to resort stretches along Da Nang and Phu Quoc.
He also takes on projects in Thailand, Singapore, Bali, the Maldives, the UAE, Qatar and Kuwait.
