Should a Professional Photograph Your Business Events?
I often find articles from other professionals in my field who do a great job explaining what it entails to produce successful images at a large event.
A Canadian photographer, Susan McEvoy, wrote a very comprehensive piece called Event Photography: Visualizing the Experience that covers why important events and conferences should not be left up to staff with cameras on their phones.
Here are some significant points to consider when hiring someone to capture images of your next big, professional gathering:
- Understanding people & having the instincts & experience regarding what to shoot is a vital skill of an event photographer so important moments aren’t missed
- Knowing what you want to use the images for after the event is over (press releases, social media posts, targeted marketing campaigns, etc.) will help the photographer produce the best shots
- Images taken by attendees are often the wrong subjects or a poor composition or resolution that will not work for printing
- Professional photographers have the skills & equipment to adapt to the changing weather, available lighting, updated schedules & spontaneous happenings that need a skilled eye & a calm head
- Event attendees can produce thousands of images of an event, but who has time to collect and sort through them all? A professional event photographer presents you with the best of the best & allows you to make informed & timely decisions on what to use
Keep in mind that engaging photos can generate interest in your next conference, attract new employees and keep you top-of-mind in the competitive online world. I would love the chance to hear about your next business event and what you would like to capture and share with your target audience.
