Here are some considerations to keep in mind in selecting your next San Francisco event photographer.
Establish a budget
You’ll need to create a budget to ensure that your photography needs can be met within the constraints of that budget.
Communicate your needs and ideas to your photographer
It is critically important to let your photographer know the intended use for the photographs. Many events are photographed simply to provide a memento. Other events are photographed with a specific purpose in mind. The photographs may be used in marketing or in promotional materials and be published on social media platforms. The specific use of the photograph will often dictate how the pictures are shot. You will need to provide your photographer a catalog of event attendees, speakers, and special guests.
Look through your photographer’s portfolio and ask for references
Get references from your event photographer. You will want to take a look at your photographer’s portfolio to make sure they capture photographs in a way that is consistent with your idea for your event. You will also want to be sure they are experienced in event photography. Not every good photographer is a good event photographer. Don’t be afraid to ask for references. Shellee Fisher Photography & Design is happy to provide you both access to her portfolio and her references from an array of San Jose clients.
Search online and read online reviews
Now it’s time to turn to Google. Check customer reviews to make sure the photographer has a good reputation. Also, look at the photographer’s website to get a feel for who they are and their typical photographic style. Establishing a relationship of trust with your photographer can go a long way toward you getting the photographs you want.
Make sure your event photographer has experience photographing events
Shellee Fisher Photography & Design has well over a decade of experience photographing corporate events in San Jose.
