Party Photography London

On Friday night we photographed the Novotel Christmas party which historically has always been held in January. Because the hotel is so busy during Christmas and the yearly figures are published in January it means that they can combine an awards and bonuses party with a Christmas party.

‘Wild West’ was the theme and the hotel supplied the fancy dress costumes. The cast of Toy story, various wild west villains and damsels in distress attended, and the manager of the hotel was dressed as a sheriff. We set up our ‘real time slideshow and our photo booth to take studio photographs of the guests in a wild west saloon studio set.

Supplying prints on the night is an excellent way of giving guests something to take away from the evening. We can add a corporate logo to the photograph and present it in a sleeve or mount and the guests can choose which photographs they’d like us to print.

Our ‘real time slideshows’ are also really popular at corporate parties and events. We bring a huge screen along to the event and project the photographs as they happen. We also include this service in our wedding photography packages along with the photo booth and green screen photo booth, you can find out more about this service here.

Event Photographer London, Fun Stuff at Events.

There are lots of other fun photography related things that we can do at your event.

Mobile Photo Booth: During the evening at your event we can set up our small mobile photographers studio with background and studio lighting. We’ll provide some silly props, hats, and some crazy stuff to wear. Your guests can come in and we’ll take some creative fun shots, it’s just a bit of fun and your guests will love it.

Real time slideshows: At your reception we can set up our big screen and run a selection of the photographs we’ve taken so far at your event, we update it regularly so guests can see the most recent photographs we’ve taken. Of course we only show the best photos and we make sure everyone included in the slideshow looks their best!

Our Green Screen Mobile Studio: This is the same as our mobile studio above but we use a green background which means we can superimpose your portrait onto an exotic background. The most popular backgrounds are a beach with Palm trees, the surface of the moon, Venice complete with gondolas, New York skyline, fireworks, and the most popular is the dinosaur scene. This is something we have just started doing and it is becoming a big hit.

On Thursday evening we took part in the opening of the new Benetton Store at Oxford Circus in the heart of London’s West End. To find out more about our event photography go to out event photography website.

Free makeovers were provided by the store and we photographed and produced glamourous studio prints for the shoppers who had taken part in the opening celebrations. The store opened at midday on Thursday and the photography sessions started at 4 o’clock. We finished at 8pm having photographed and produced prints for over 180 people.

Our mobile studio has been very popular this year, the photographs we can produce are studio quality and we can print and supply photographs at the event.

Last night I photographed the Hornsby House Summer Ball. It was a fundraising event supporting two charities, The Myotubular Trust and The Jennifer trust.

It was a masked ball and all of the guests arrived wearing masks, some as unconventional as Darth Vader’s headress and a world war II gasmask. It was a clear warm evening and the guests were able to have drinks outside until they went in to the marquee for dinner. A promise auction took place later in the evening raising further funds for both charities.

The photographs will be up on my site by Monday afternoon.

The world of Party, Event and Corporate photography has been a very strange place to be in over the last year. I know many photographers whose businesses fell off a cliff last September as the corporates particularly cancelled their bookings and slashed all spending related to client and staff entertainment. Everybody in the event and corporate entertainment has had a pretty unremarkable year. But it seems bonuses are back, corporate entertainment without excess is now ok, and the total freeze on spending money on fun is starting to thaw.

So, thanks goodness for that!

This December for me looks good for Party and Event photography, bookings are starting to roll in and the ‘real time’ slide shows we do are very popular this year. We set up a large screen and continually feed the latest photographs onto the screen, very amusing for the guests as they see the party come alive on the screen. It takes two photographers to do this well, one to take the photographs and another to feed the selected images into a laptop and onto the screen. They are great fun and a great way to impress your friends and clients.

Supplying prints instantly, well more or less instantly, is another popular service we provide at events and parties. Last year we covered a party held at Selfridges for Tatler magazine and as the guests arrived we photographed them. We then superimposed a Tatler front cover onto the photograph we’d taken. They absolutely loved it and when the prints were produced and laid out for all to see it was the highlight of the evening for some.
