Event photography blog

This is where I show what an event photographer's work looks like behind the scenes at conferences, galas and corporate parties. I share the experience I've gained over more than 10 years in the profession and use examples from my own projects to describe how I prepare for a corporate event and what I do on site. I write for organisers who want to know what to expect from a photographer at an event before they book.
