A 15ft ladder n hopefully someone to hold the bottom of it!
There is a pole made for that. Hardware stores have them. This is a sample of one at Home Depot. This one may not be as long as you need but reading a customer question HD replied that they do have a longer pole. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Ettore-Bulb-Changer-with-Pole-48450/204706091
The pros use a pole with a bulb changer depending on type of fixture.....

Good suggestions to try unless you are Fred Astaire and can dance on the walls and ceiling. Anybody else remember that old movie?
I have vaulted celings and very high fixtures. I wear tennis shoes and use a sturdy ladder to reach the bulbs. I also wear an apron with pockets that hold the new bulbs and old ones after removed. It's also a good idea to have someone there with you to steady the ladder.
Long reach lightbulb poles or Tall ladder or Electrician as they will have all the equipement needed to do the job quickly.
