Photography Upload Guide

This page is prepared to help your team complete the property-side image upload for your brand website gallery.

Use the recommendations below to guide hero image, carousel, and gallery placement decisions. Then use the image metadata section to copy the prepared fields into MDAC.

For Marriott properties, this upload process takes place through the Marriott Digital Asset Center, referred to here as MDAC.


How to Use This Page

Use this page in two passes:

1. Review the hero and carousel recommendations.

2. Work through the Image Metadata section one image at a time inside MDAC.

For each image, match the asset by its ORIGINAL FILENAME, then copy or reference the prepared fields beneath that image.

Fields that say “Search in DAC for:” are dropdown/search selections inside MDAC. Fields that say “Property to verify” or “Property to select” require confirmation inside Marriott systems.

Before submitting the assets for approval, please reach out if anything does not appear to match.



Image Metadata

Use the image and ORIGINAL FILENAME to confirm the correct asset in MDAC. Then copy or reference the fields beneath that image.

For fields that say “Search in DAC for:”, search the recommended term and choose the closest available option.


Final Step

After all image details have been completed and saved, return to Marriott’s property-side upload instructions for final approval and submission.

If something does not appear to match, please reach out before submitting the assets.

We want these images to launch with clarity and momentum, and we’re happy to help your team get them across the finish line.
