Adel was the best photographer I have ever worked with. He was attentive, thoughtful and professional throughout the evening and the weeks prior and after the event. The best part of working with him were the photos!! They were unbelievable!! The venue was dark and not well lit and we wanted a moody look. He brought the proper equipment and all my friends love the photos. I will absolutely be using Adel for future events.

Thank you Adrian for such wonderful photos capturing our special night so well! Adrian was punctual, polite, and really engaged with all our guests to get lots of photos, both posed and in conversation. The whole feel of the event is in the photos. The only thing would be communication on timeframe for photos after the event - it was a bit difficult to get hold of Adrian to determine when we could expect the photos. Now we have them we are so pleased with the result though. Keep up the good work. Martha

What do birthday photography services include?

Planning an upcoming birthday party? At Airtasker, we make it easy for you to find and hire a skilled birthday photographer. You can skip the headache of asking around for someone that fits your needs, budget and schedule. With just one post, we'll connect you to a nearby photographer who can readily help make your party a success.

Our birthday photography services include prepping the space, capturing your event, editing and post-processing, and sharing with you the final output. Whether it's an indoor or outdoor birthday party, day or night, rest assured that your talented birthday photographer will be there to capture special moments you can lovingly look back on. Here's what to expect when you book birthday party photography packages with Airtasker:

Setting up the camera equipment

Having the right camera equipment is essential to excellent birthday party photography. Your photographer first asks you important details such as the venue and time so that they can come prepared with the right gear and equipment. They arrive ahead of time, assess and prep the venue space, and set-up the essentials—from DSLR cameras and tripods to zoom and wide-angle lenses. These are all done while making sure your guests are kept safe and free from any distractions and obstructions that can affect their comfort and enjoyment.

Taking birthday photos

Birthday photography can include several services, depending on your preferences. Apart from capturing event photos, you can also ask for pre-party photoshoots, a photo booth complete with fun props, specific shots of the birthday cake or the decorations, or even portrait photos of your guests. Just mention the service you need to your photographer, so they can help you achieve your vision. Upon request, they can also stay for the entire duration of your party instead of only peak hours. This means you and your guests can get your photos taken on demand, any time during the party!

Editing birthday photos

After your party, your photographer edits and post-processes your photos for your convenience. Using software like Photoshop or Lightroom, they can adjust your photos' colour saturation, focus, contrast and other details. You can also ask them for specific filters in case you want your photos to have a certain aesthetic. Some photographers can even provide same-day edits upon request.

Birthday photo sharing

Once post-processing is completed, your photographer shares with you your event photos through several mediums. You can ask them for an online link where you can access your photos on the web or a USB stick where all edited pictures are already downloaded and stored. In case you want physical copies of your photos, you can also request your photographer to have them printed and mailed to you individually or stored in an album.

Hi there, I am looking for an event photographer to take some photos during our 40th birthday. Details below: March 13th 7:30pm to 9:30 Venue: Ghost of Alfred Felton (Top floor of the Espy) Types of Photos: Candid and Posed Shots. I'm also looking for someone who is able to set up a scene for some still, posed photos (Vanity fair oscars shoot). The theme is Speakeasy where my guests will be in costume and as the venue is at the Ghost there will be ample props to use with chairs etc. Happy to discuss further.
