We’ve addressed many of the questions our clients often have, but your upcoming event is unique. During your consultation, we will get to know you and your company and discuss the ins and outs of your event.
What is Corporate Event Photography?
One of the areas Photography G specializes in is event photography. We capture all of the moments and details of events. A few examples of events are: conferences, trade shows, weddings, galas, and many more.
Are there photographers who specialize in conference and corporate work?
The short answer is yes. Photography G specializes in photography for commercial businesses and organizations. While we offer an array of photography services at our Denver studio including business and personal portraits as well as wedding and special events, our main focus centers on corporate photography.
Why would we hire an out of town photographer to photograph our conference instead of someone local?
You may consider it more convenient to hire a local photographer, but experience and talent should be more of a deciding factor than location. Reputation should also be taken into consideration, which you can research by reading reviews from other corporate event clients.
The Photography G client list includes businesses, associations and events across the country such as the American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine (AOSSM). Photography G has been the preferred photographer for AOSSM for more than ten years at its Annual Meeting—from Seattle, Washington to Orlando, Florida.
“While it may seem counterintuitive to utilize an out-of-town photographer, there are a number of benefits aside from it being cost-effective. When Garrett is at the meeting, he is essentially on duty the entire day and, therefore, easy to incorporate into different functions at short notice.” — Irv Bomberger, Executive Director of AOSSM.
How does Photography G handle photographs of celebrity guests and speakers?
High-profile speakers and guests could be intimidating for some photographers, but Photography G has vast experience with well-known musical artists, physicians, professional sports players and government officials. We know how to cater to special guests and will show up with the highest level of professionalism.
What is Photography G’s experience with photographing our kind of conference?
When show time hits, it is important to have someone who knows the ropes. Photography G hits the ground running and doesn’t require any oversight. With nearly two decades of experience in corporate photography, we know where and when to be. Photography G has photographed a wide variety of corporate events such as:
- Medical Expos and Conferences
- Award Ceremonies
- Marketing and Vendor events
- Technical School Graduation
How quickly will we get our images?
Social media is an important part of any event, and you want your conference to have an impact on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn. To accommodate this need, Photography G will identify key photos from your conference shortly after the day has ended so you can use them across all social media outlets and corporate presentations to showcase your function quickly.
Do we own our images?
Ownership of the images from your conference is determined on a case-by-case basis. Photography G may like to feature some of their favorite images from your event on our website. However, we realize there are times when images from your conference may not be appropriate to share, and for this reason, we are flexible on ownership and use of images.
Will there be more than one photographer at our event?
While Garrett and Kellie are the principle photographers at Photography G, we also employ other photographers to cover large events, especially those spanning several days. During your in-person or over-the-phone consultation, we will discuss the specific details of your event and determine how many shooters will be necessary to achieve the coverage you’re looking for.
What is Photography G’s style of commercial photography?
Photography G’s style of photography is largely photojournalistic. We believe candid moments are the most pivotal when it comes to event photography. The Photography G style is versatile though and adapts to each event. Many of the commercial and corporate events the G Team covers require a variety of photography styles including a keen eye for what to capture during a speech or presentation and the skill for taking large-scale group portraits.
What is commercial photography?
The creation of images for commercial purposes of company marketing and publication. Whether that be architecture, landscape, food, product or fashion. The photos may include both people and objects, the main goal, to sell a product or service.
