As a DC and Northern Virginia event photographer, my team’s priority has always been capturing moments of an event that both tell a story and evoke a feeling. Every photograph we make is about something; whether that be an emotion, reaction, or an interaction, I believe there should be meaning behind every photograph. Here are a few images we photographed at in Arlington at GMU’s Arlington Campus:

BELOW ARE THE TYPES OF SHOTS YOU CAN EXPECT, STANDARD WITH EVENT PHOTOGRAPHY COVERAGE.

ESTABLISHING SHOTS AT CORPORATE EVENTS

Establishing shots to give a sense of space and more importantly the scale of a corporate event. They can also be a great way to highlight your premiere DC venue. These are great for social media posts or documentation.

We always get photographs from several different perspectives. Example shots include: A shot of a performer or speaker on stage from the perspective of the audience, wide shots from each corner of a banquet hall, convention center, etc, an exterior shot of a venue or a wide shot of the floor of a convention center from a floor from above.

DETAIL SHOTS AT CORPORATE EVENTS

Detail shots we capture include: venue details, event signage, food, and more.

CLOSE-UP CANDID PHOTOGRAPHY AT CORPORATE EVENTS

Close-up candid photographs of individuals capture the emotional high points of an event. They can be photographed in a variety of ways, but usually with a telephoto lens and a shallow depth of field. This minimizes distracting elements and allows a viewer to zero in on, and connect with a moment. These are often the images viewers connect with most. we pay special attention to photographing your VIPs such as guest speakers or your CEO, but as always, we work to maximize coverage of an event; we try to get a photo of as many attendees as possible.

GROUP PORTRAITS AT CORPORATE EVENTS

As a roaming event photographer, anytime we see a small group conversing, we are sure to approach them with a smile and simply ask, “hey can we get a shot of you guys?” These shots allow us to be sure to get all of your VIPs in photographs together and help me maximize coverage, making sure to photograph as many attendees as possible. These are often the types of photos guests at corporate events like to share.

Event at The British Embassy in Washington, DC

Event at The British Embassy in Washington, DC | DC Event Photographer

 

The British Embassy in Washington, DC is one of the most prestigious diplomatic properties in the city and serves as the official residence of the British Ambassador to the United States. It's located in the Embassy Row area along Massachusetts Avenue NW, near other historic embassies and Kalorama residences. Here is a recent embassy event we photographed at the British Embassy:

As a DC event photographer, my team’s priority has always been capturing moments of an event that both tell a story and evoke a feeling. Every photograph we make is about something; whether that be an emotion, reaction, or an interaction, I believe there should be meaning behind every photograph. Here are a few images we photographed at the British Embassy:

BELOW ARE THE TYPES OF SHOTS YOU CAN EXPECT, STANDARD WITH EVENT PHOTOGRAPHY COVERAGE.

ESTABLISHING SHOTS AT CORPORATE EVENTS

Establishing shots to give a sense of space and more importantly the scale of a corporate event. They can also be a great way to highlight your premiere DC venue. These are great for social media posts or documentation.

We always get photographs from several different perspectives. Example shots include: A shot of a performer or speaker on stage from the perspective of the audience, wide shots from each corner of a banquet hall, convention center, etc, an exterior shot of a venue or a wide shot of the floor of a convention center from a floor from above.

DETAIL SHOTS AT CORPORATE EVENTS

Detail shots we capture include: venue details, event signage, food, and more.

Details matter at a corporate event. We know organizers put in a lot of work to produce an event of any size with many details to show for it. As always, when photographing an event, we photography with the end use in mind. we are there to get the types of images that you are looking for.

CLOSE-UP CANDID PHOTOGRAPHY AT CORPORATE EVENTS

Close-up candid photographs of individuals capture the emotional high points of an event. They can be photographed in a variety of ways, but usually with a telephoto lens and a shallow depth of field. This minimizes distracting elements and allows a viewer to zero in on, and connect with a moment. These are often the images viewers connect with most. we pay special attention to photographing your VIPs such as guest speakers or your CEO, but as always, we work to maximize coverage of an event; we try to get a photo of as many attendees as possible.

GROUP PORTRAITS AT CORPORATE EVENTS

As a roaming event photographer, anytime we see a small group conversing, we are sure to approach them with a smile and simply ask, “hey can we get a shot of you guys?” These shots allow us to be sure to get all of your VIPs in photographs together and help me maximize coverage, making sure to photograph as many attendees as possible. These are often the types of photos guests at corporate events like to share.

DELIVERY & EDITING OF YOUR IMAGES

We do our best to make as many meaningful images capturing your corporate event as possible. Our rates always includes edited images in high resolution with basic usage rights. We understand the need for a fast turnaround time. We offer same day, night of, and even live editing and file delivery. Let us know your turnaround time needs.
