Magdalena Smolarska
As we are slowly coming back to “normal”, many online entrepreneurs and business owners are longing for in person connection, this includes, me - a Brighton based professional portrait photographer. Are you wishing to attending business workshops and networking events rather dialling into another zoom meeting?
If you are a Sussex/Brighton based business owner planning to organise an in person event, networking, masterclass, workshop or retreat, do not forget to hire a local event photographer & videographer in advance so you can build engagement, credibility, trust on social media with professional images & videosfor your next upcoming events.
An experienced event photographer is an investment into your businesses visibility, rather than an expense with no ROI.
Here are 6 reasons to hire a professional event photographer and videographer for your upcoming business event:
1.Unique content on social media and website
High quality photos from your event will create amazing content on your social media and website. By posting candid shots form the event, group photos and you in action, you will stand out from the crowd.
By sharing on the social media relaxed and welcoming atmosphere images from your event will increase curiosity, engagement.
And by tagging all event participants of your event on pictures, will gain you more views, new followers and higher engagement.
2. New profile picture of you and your team
A professional event and portrait photographer will take pictures of you and your team in your element, in action. It’s the perfect opportunity to update your profile picture, social media account with high quality candid portrait images from the event.
3. The power of “behind the scenes” for images driving engagement
There is nothing more powerful than sharing “behind the scenes” pictures from your workshop or retreat. Professional event photography can boost your credibility, engagement and trust instantly.
4. Boost your credibility
If you are a public speaker, showing yourself speaking to a crowded room will boost your profile!
5. Future reference
Let’s not forget about future reference! You can re-use and re-share your event photos to promote your future events. This will showcase how successful your previous events have been.
If you are business coach running interactive workshops or mini retreats, showing your audience images of well-attended events will attract more interest for higher ticket events in future.
6. Focus on hosting an event and let the photographer capture the event for you
By hiring a professional event photographer you can focus on hosting an event. Plus you save time on selecting and editing images yourself, your photographer will take care of it for you.
