5 Reasons To Hire An Event Photographer

My Top 5 Reasons To Hire An Event Photographer For Your Next Party

If you are putting together an event, one of the best things you can do is to hire an event Photographer. Many people understand the benefit of hiring a Photographer for family portraits, or maternity portraits – but events are just as important. Here are my top 5 reasons to hire an event Photographer for your next party.

You Can Share The Images With Your Guests

One of the main benefits to hiring a Photographer for your party is that you can share all of the images with your guests. Chances are, they will love all of the fun images that the Photographer captured and will enjoy seeing the images. If you throw a great event, there will be a lot of people taking pictures with their phones – but these will not be as good as the images a professional Photographer can capture. Make sure that you coordinate group and posed pictures with all of your VIP’s that attend the party. Having your Photographer get these images are also really important 🙂

You Can Make Large Prints

Another advantage of hiring an event Photographer for your party is that you can make prints of some of your favorite images. In today’s camera phone age, too many photos end up stuck on our phones, posted on social media; and they never end up getting printed out. While there are a lot of great reasons to have cell phone pictures, one of the disadvantages is that the images are just too small to ever print.

The images from a professional Photographer will be large enough to make a medium or large size print. Making prints and posting these around your home or office is a great way to update a space. Have you ever been to someone’s home and seen some of the images they have on the wall? It creates a very inviting and loving vibe to any area. By hiring a professional Photographer, you’ll have a lot of options to make prints of some of the best images from your party.

You Will Be Able To Actually Enjoy Your Party

Chances are, you put a lot of time and effort into planning the perfect party. You deserve to actually enjoy the party and not have to worry about getting pictures of it all. A good Photographer will get images of all of the decorations and details that you spent a lot of time and money on and they will be able to capture all of the fun moments of the event.

If you choose to simply document the party on your own, there is a good chance that you will miss some of the most important moments. A professional Photographer will capture all of the obvious images that need to be captured – but they will also capture the fun and genuine moments that you would not have otherwise. Sit down, enjoy your company and leave the important job of documenting your event to the Photographer 🙂

You Can Use Some Of The Images For Thank You Cards

Also, if you plan on sending thank you cards, the Photographer will have plenty of great images that you can use for this. This is something that your guests will really appreciate and it shows that you care about them leaving a gift and being at the party.

You Will Have Something To Look Back On

In my experience as a Photographer, I have come to find that photography is something that people value more as time goes on. The problem with this is that it may be something that is overlooked at the time. Family dynamics change, people move away, get older, and are people are no longer there.

It is easy to overlook moments like a birthday party as an event that does not warrant a professional Photographer – but this cannot be further from the truth. When there are moments in your life where you are reflecting on a life changing moment, images are one of the first things you go to look at. Anytime where you can get together with your friends and family is a great opportunity to get professional photographs. It is something that MANY people will not value at the time. But it is something that you will definitely look back on 😉
