Choosing the right photography team for your corporate event is such an important decision. You’re selecting the right storyteller for your event’s story. It’s crucial to ensure they’re capable of capturing the essence and the energy you’re looking for. So to help, we’ve made a list of the essential questions to ask before booking your corporate photography team. And if make it to the bottom, there’s two bonus questions that can give you cheeky peek into the team you’re considering. Enjoy!

1. What is Your Experience in Corporate Event Photography? Understanding the level of experience and expertise will help ensure the photographers can handle the unique challenges and demands of a corporate event setting.

Our answer: We’ve been professional photographers for 19 years and counting. Thousands and thousands of attendees and their event planners all agree that we bring an unmatched experience to your event’s energy and flow.

 

2. Can You Share a Portfolio of Previous Corporate Events? A portfolio will provide a clear, visual understanding of the quality and style of work, helping you decide if it aligns with your brand’s aesthetic, and gives you the coverage and delivery you want and expect.

Our answer: Absolutely! We have so many galleries to choose from, it’s hard to narrow down. Here’s one of our recent (and pretty wild!) galleries we delivered for an incredible party sponsored by Connor McGregor and his whiskey brand, Proper 12.

3. How Do You Plan for an Event? This question dives into the measures the photography team takes to understand your brand, event agenda, and the key moments you want to be captured.

Our answer: We’re email experts and only one friendly phone call away. We know planning can be stressful, so we’re happy to do as much planning over email as possible. But we’re happy to jump on a phone call with you and walk you through our step-by-step q&a, to make sure every expectation is exceeded!

4. What is Included in Your Pricing? Clear understanding of the pricing structure, including what is included and what might be considered extra, will help avoid any surprises down the line.

Our answer: A lot! We give you a gorgeous gallery (that can be password protected!) that you can download from, share images, and more. It’s safe and secure, and online for you and your attendees for 12 months from delivery date. It’s clean and easy enough to use, you can forward the gallery link to your graphics team or attendees – or you can download all the images yourself in two clicks to share easily! You can use the photos in any capacity, online, print, digital, they’re all yours to use! A clear and easy to understand contract outlines all the deliverables and even how to use them!

5. How Will the Photos be Delivered, and When? Knowing the delivery method, format, and timeline for receiving the final images is crucial for any follow-up marketing or PR activities.

Our answer: A beautiful gallery! You’ll get an email directly to the main contact (or anyone else, for that matter!) so they can view and use the photos safe and securely. We send sneak peeks within 24 hours of your event, and all photos delivered within 2 weeks. Rush turn around is absolutely available, too!

Now, let’s venture a bit off the beaten path with two questions that will help you get to know your photography team on a different level.

6. If Your Photography Style Were a Movie Genre, What Would it Be and Why? This question can give you responses with insight into the creative mindset of the photography team.

Our answer: Savannah Corporate Photography probably most resembles the “Dramedy” genre, blending the authenticity of drama with hints of comedy. Our photos are true-to-life, capturing real emotions and moments, yet always allowing for a touch of light-heartedness. Just like in dramedies, we strike a balance between bright, vivid colors and moodier tones!

7. Which Photography Event From the Past Resonates With You the Most, and Why? The answer to this question can provide a glimpse into what the photography team values in their work, and the impact they aim to create through their lenses.

Our answer: Obviously we try not to play favorites. We work with the best event venues in and around Savannah, GA and the coolest companies, too. But if I had to narrow it down, it’s the conferences or events that go off-site to really give their attendees a taste of the city. We’re an amazing city, rich in history – when I get to capture the reactions and experiences guests have when exploring Savannah, it really makes my heart happy!

With questions like these, you’re ready to pick the best photography team. The right fit will not only meet your event’s needs but resonate with your brand’s narrative, ensuring the captured moments are nothing short of spectacular. And I hope that after this blog post you’ll see that Savannah Corporate Photography is that team you’ve been looking for!
