Birthday Party Photographer – How I Work

I have more than a decade of experience of photographing events both in the UK and internationally.

Firstly, it’s really useful for me to know if you have any key events planned during the evening. Some people do lots of things, while others do none. There is no right or wrong answer to that, just do whatever is right for you! 🙂

Some people like to supply their own backdrops for me to work with, so that I act like a photo booth. But I’m so much more than a photo booth!

I’m more than happy to be grabbed for impromptu posed group shots, and I love to capture the action on the dancefloor!

The Art of Event Photography

There is an art to event photography. Even when there is seemingly not much going on, a decent birthday party photographer will make it appear that there is. Your guests will always be interacting with one another, even if they’re not on the dancefloor boogying the night away!

I am regularly complimented on how I put people at ease, but I do also carry a pretty long lens with me if any of your guests are proving to be particularly camera shy! 😀

What do you get?

In return you will receive a password-protected web gallery, which you can share with guests and interested parties.

From the gallery, you can download the edited high-resolution digital files in both colour and black & white captured during your event.

You will be granted a license to reproduce the images for you and your guests. The only limitation is that you cannot sell the images to a third party, since I retain the copyright.
