Superhosts and photographers Jeff and Candida Wohlgemuth understand the power of visuals. As photographers, they travel the world searching for places that have a special story–places that not only come alive in pictures but that also inspire.

After remodeling the space, the couple began sharing what they created on social media, drawing a pool of loyal followers. El Rancho has since become a creative oasis. Their secret?

Here, they share some wise words on how to find and craft the story of your home.
