Who do you hire to photograph properties?

This is a question for investors who, like me, do not live in the vicinity of the properties they are interested in buying, and must hire people to go take photos and video. Do you place an ad in places like Craig's List and Facebook for someone?  The drawback I find with Craig's List  is that it has a limited number of editions in any given state, and they revolve around the large cities.  My research is in smaller localities, so it isn't clear to me that the photographers I need even see my ad.  The author of Dirt Rich says he uses wegolook.com.  Has anyone used this company?  I'd love to hear back about the experiences of others.

I use Thumbtack for any help needed for rental, including photographer.
Also, you might ask a referral from RE agent, PM, or give a call to a listing agent you like the photos of. 
This way you handpick the photographers with great portfolios and save time and money as not every good photographer will answer to your add.

If you still want to have some ppl coming to you, I would suggest to do the FB marketplace post of a job and run the ads for it on FB and instagram, but you need a good visual which you can create in canva.com.
