Live Event Photography
for Expert Businesses

Capturing powerful moments that matter to those you serve

Professional speakers deliver their message of transformation in a variety of rooms, in a variety of ways:

KEYNOTES. BREAKOUTS. CONFERENCES. TRADE SHOWS. MASTERCLASSES. WORKSHOPS. MEETINGS. BOOK SIGNINGS. NETWORKING GROUPS. SPECIAL EVENTS.

Capturing moments during these appearances offers you CREDIBILITY:

A chance to show potential clients, members, and participants what it’s like to learn from you in the same space. It also provides event professionals who hire you a chance to see what you look like when delivering your expertise.

High-quality, candid photos of you at a live event also offers OPPORTUNITY:

You and your marketing team will have a wealth of visual assets to incorporate into all of your promotional materials across your entire online presence, including your website, client proposals, online content and other marketing-related projects for future events.

KEYNOTES

While creating dynamic images of you presenting from the stage is a priority, candid photos of the moments surrounding those moments are important additions to your image content portfolio, too. Tech rehearsal, interacting with crew members, signage with your photo, getting mic’d up, participant reactions during and after the presentation. This collection of photos adds massive value to your investment and tells the whole story.

CONFERENCES

Create an image content portfolio that covers the entirety of the event - general sessions, breakouts, lunch and dinner, networking breaks, vendor booths, and other special events held during the conference. Create visual assets that not only support your marketing goals, but share those images with key contributors to your event as a thank you for a job well done.

MEETINGS/MASTERMINDS/WORKSHOPS

Whether working with a small handful of people or a packed house, create an image content portfolio full of moments that capture the atmosphere and energy in the room - wide shots of the participants in the room, candid shots of you facilitating,  participants taking notes, asking questions and engaging fellow participants, and all the details in between. This collection of images will help your team create compelling marketing assets that will help fill the room for the next session.

SPECIAL EVENTS

What other important moments happen within your Expert-based business that you need to share with those you serve? Identify those magical moments, create an arsenal of images that capture those moments, and share them throughout your online presence to allow your audience to celebrate you for these achievements…and to help promote whatever it is that you’ve created and are looking to bring to market.

What does working together look like?

SHOOT

With the shot list in hand, I’ll spend the duration of our time together creating as much variety as possible from shot-to-shot. I, also, will be on the lookout for additional images that could potentially be valuable for your marketing team that weren’t discussed during the strategy call.

SELECT

Since live event photography creates a massive amount of raw images, I’ll spare you the hassle of looking through thousands of photos by culling the initial pile myself and only keep ones where there is a potential use for that photo, and dump the rest.

SORT

Once the selected images are ready to ship, I’ll organize the image assets by type into appropriate sub-folders. This will help create a faster, more effective process when you and your team are selecting photos for specific marketing projects across every touchpoint of your online presence.

SEND

Once everything is uploaded, you’ll be sent a cloud link to the folder when each image is formatted in both low-resolution and high-resolution. That cloud link is active until you or your team confirm that you’ve downloaded everything safely on your end.

We needed lots of photos of our faculty presenting and answering patient questions during the sessions and between sessions. We needed lots of candid shots from all angles. We use these for marketing our conference and for other uses. John was so good that we didn’t even notice him taking photos. Thus, he captured the kind of candid photos we needed of our faculty and attendees; everything looked so natural. For marketing purposes, we needed lots of angles and lots of candid photos. That is what we received, and so much more. John has a natural eye for composition, making it difficult to choose the photos to use. Instead of choosing among a handful of pictures for a specific purpose, I have dozens from which to choose. John is a pro and doesn’t require much direction as he instinctively knows how to anticipate what you need. And he delivers!

Heather Younger, Speaker, Author + Consultant

I absolutely adore John as a human and I respect him for is brilliance behind the camera! I hired John to capture great shots of me on a beautiful stage with a great client logo to be used on my website and social media. John did way more than what I expected. Not only did he meet with me in advance of the event to go over strategy and find out exactly what I wanted, he also was snapping amazing candid shots of me at the tech check before the event happened and while I interacted with the audience. He even captured one of my favorite audience interactions of all time after I got off stage! Because he has so much experience working with speakers, he knew exactly what shots to take to make me look like a million bucks. I would highly recommend working with John if you want to work with the best in the industry, a consummate professional at capturing the best sides of a person and just an amazing human overall. You will not be disappointed!

Kim Becking, Speaker, Coach + Consultant

I had the amazing opportunity to work with John on capturing one of my live in person keynotes. It had been a few years (here's looking at you COVID) since I had stage keynote photos shot and I needed updated photos showing all aspects of my keynote - from prep, to props, to the magic created in the room with my client. John was so on top of it. We were able to talk through what specific shots were needed and outline highlights of my keynote where John's visual eye would create amazing action shots. John was there from pre-keynote prep through after the keynote - getting amazing "in the moment" magical shots every step of the way - not just on stage, but the interaction with clients, the hugs and the high fives - all in a ninja like, unassuming way. I'm using the hundreds of photos he took in a variety of ways for all of my digital content - website, social media, blog and so much more. He was able to capture me and my work and tell the story of building Momentum to be more adaptable and resilient all from behind his lens. If you want someone who is going to capture your magic from stage and make you look like the rockstar, don't wait, hire John today! A true pro's pro!
