If your business plans a meeting, conference, retreat, or other type of special occasion, corporate event photography helps document the moment. Hiring a professional photographer for your company event equips you with a full library of high-quality brand imagery to use in various ways. 

With a business event photographer, you can send attendees home with physical prints of group photos, post images to social media channels, or use pictures to promote future events on your professional website. Some photographers include special offerings for events like photo booths, Polaroids, drone footage, and more.

Why Is Photography Important For Corporate Events?

When your business hosts or attends an event, it’s a special occasion for your employees and overall brand. By hiring a professional photographer to capture your event, you gain images that can be used to increase the value of your event and organization. 

• Social media: Images can be used for social media posts during and immediately after the event, with an extensive lifecycle to be used long-term
• Online marketing and physical ads: Pictures from events can be leveraged for online marketing assets and physical advertisements. 
• Website imagery: Whether it’s a page specific to your events or general website photos, images from your event can be used across your site. 
• Prints for attendees: Some event photographers bring printers with the capability to provide attendees with physical pictures to take home as a memento. 
• Email newsletters: Images can be used for internal and external email newsletters and communications to highlight the event or promote one in the future. 
• General branding: Images that capture the energy and excitement of your events provide social proof and enhance your overall brand image. 
• Additional assets: On top of everything mentioned prior, hiring a professional photographer for your business event gives you additional visual assets for any use in the future. 

What Do Business Event Photography Services Include?

Hiring a professional photographer for your business event gives you more than a few snapshots of the occasion. 

Much like an on-set stills or corporate photographer in an active setting, event photographers specialize in navigating the premises without interrupting the natural flow and energy. When the occasion calls for it, like a holiday party, photographers can interact with attendees to craft the appropriate vibe and capture an array of staged photos. 

Some examples of images you may receive include: 

• Candid shots of attendees enjoying the night at various angles and distances
• Individual, group, and team portraits 
• Architectural imagery of the event space to establish the setting
• Close-up, detailed shots of signage, tables, food, decoration, and more 
• Live event photos of speakers, performers, banquets, and more
