Conference Photography

My job as a conference photographer is to fit seamlessly into the multifaceted undertaking that you have taken on as conference organiser!

I understand the significant amount of planning and coordination required and my role is to help in the execution. I deliver dynamic images in real time to communications teams to help generate interest in the conference as it is happening and I also create a set of images that the marketing department will use to sell next year’s conference. And I enjoy it!
