subject: The Advantage Of A Social Media Savvy Event Photographer [print this page] Have you ever been invited to a birthday party where there was no picture taking? Something is by all odds wrong with the affair; you might think, and many people will agree. Pictures put the icing on the cake of every family gathering and significant affairs.
Now, expand this into a larger setting and think of an organised event, say, a bridal expo held at a 15,000-seating capacity convention center. The event organisers did a fantastic job from A-Z, but minus an event photographer to take pictures, then it is as though this event did not happen at all!
Ideally, you cannot sacrifice any single item at an event. But if you must choose, then it will be so wise for you to not omit an accomplished event photographer. This person can whip marvelous things into the pictures even from the most uneventful events. You can have a little budget event come along big time through the photographs. And normally these pictures can go far places particularly in today's multimedia world.
These days, an event photographer can even magnify the excitement over an event while it is happening and just briefly after, just when the event organisers desire the memory of the event to imprint upon the people's minds. Prepared with digital cameras and movable photo editing tools, an event photographer can project the high resolution photos onto a wide screen during the event proper so that those attending can have a near-real time recap of the activities so far, and on how they look so far, too. Yes, for attendees, vanity is the name of the game with almost any social event.
A lot of corporate events also follow after the Hollywood practice of having the guests pose at a vanity wall for photo opportunities. While private events will not needfully publish the photographs to the press, invitees may want to pose and have their photos taken so they can bring home a keepsake. Needless to say, aside from his camera, the event photographer also needs to bring a photo printer and photo paper to make this happen.
In conclusion, there's a social media savvy event photographer who can create a photo blog just for your event. Just be sure this has been set when you first designed the event. Having a photo blog is something event participants might revel, seeing that they have a general place on the net to interact with each other and recollect memories about the event even if it had been a long time since it happened.
