5 reasons why you should consider hiring a professional Event Photographer in Barcelona.
1. Show the world how great your event was
You’ve invested money, time and energy in making your event a success. With the help of a professional Event and Conference Photographer you’ll be able to show the world how successful your event was.
An experienced Event Photographer knows how to cover your conference in a unique and engaging way. They have been trained to capture the most important moments (the laughter during a workshop, or your most influential speaker delivering their talk).
These photos will be treasured by your attendees, speakers and sponsors. Good conference photographs can provide you with content for your website, newsletters and social media.
2. Professional photographs help you promote your event after it’s finished
You’ve spent months preparing your event, and it’s paid off: you solidified business opportunities and made new ones.
However, without Professional Photographs from your event, you have nothing tangible to show just how great your event was. This is even more important if you have a special guest speaker, an impressive exhibition stand or a memorable event.
Strong photographs from your event help you tell your story to your audience.
Event photos can be used to promote your next event, giving potential attendees an idea of what to expect when they meet you face to face.
“Both our online and offline worlds are saturated with imagery. In order to stand out you need great photos. Attention-grabbing images that show the emotion and energy from your event provide invaluable marketing material for your next one.”
3. Create a buzz on Social Media
Nowadays, your Social Media followers expect live updates throughout the day during an event or conference. Why settle for photos taken on your phone, when you could upload much higher quality and professional looking photographs?
Many professional Event and Conference Photographers can supply you with Social Media images during the event. These can be used in your tweets to help them stand out from the crowd of your audience’s congested social media feeds.
“Tweets with images earned up to 18 percent more clicks, 89 percent more favorites, and 150 percent more retweets.” (Source: Buffer)

4. Capturing flattering photos of your speakers and audience in a candid way
A trained and experienced Event Photographer knows how to predict when someone is about to laugh, look engaged or just plain cool.
They have the skills, patience and knowledge of how to best position themselves to get engaging and killer images. They take into considerations things such as the best angle to flatter the subject, the lighting, and how to incorporate the environment to create visually rich photographs.
Recent research has shown that people feel more connected to photos of others that are unvarnished and candid. (Source: University of Pennsylvania)
“People don’t want to share something that looks completely varnished. They want to share something that looks authentic.” (Jonah Berger)
Photographing people in a natural yet flattering way is a skill honed through practice and experience. It is a art form that Event Photographers should be confident in.
