Thank you Ken for capturing my daughter’s first birthday. You were kind, polite and took many spontaneous photos of my guests and family, which is exactly what I asked for. You were prompt and took an initiative to photograph special moments all around the venue. Thank you for coming on time to capture the room before the guests arrived and also for sending through the photos within 48 hours. Much appreciated. All the best. Mila

Top Event Photographers related questions

Any event where you’ll take lots of photos can benefit from having a professional behind the lens. Weddings, engagement parties, graduations, formals, birthdays, trade shows, and conferences commonly book an event photographer.

Yes. If your event is at night or it's an overcast day, your photographer will be equipped with the right camera, lighting, and editing tools to produce quality photos.

Besides professionalism and positive reviews, you should take a look at your photographer's portfolio to know if their style suits your event and needs.

Typically, digital copies are ready within a week. But this depends on the number of photos, the length and type of event, and whether you're getting raw or edited images. Printed copies may also extend the turnaround time.

Definitely! Whether for an artist or band, a music photographer can help you creatively express personality and music genre visually. Plus, your Tasker can assist with the photoshoot backdrop’s design and style.

Capturing live and excessive movements during a concert is a daunting task. Don't risk getting blurry or overexposed photos from sporadic lighting and hyper-audience effects. A concert photographer knows the best techniques, angles, and camera settings to get perfect shots.

The cost depends on the event type. For example, concerts and parties can range from $150 to $1,500. Headshots are quite basic and can be as low as $40, while weddings can cost up to $3,000.

Definitely! You can hire several Taskers to help you with any event. From planning and organising to serving guests and cleaning up afterwards, Airtasker offers various services. You can also find entertainers like musicians, magicians, DJs, and hosts.

What does event photographers service include?

Your event photographer will coordinate all pre-session details with you so they're fully equipped with the gear tailored to your venue, lighting, and crowd size.


They'll also include photos of the aesthetics and all other details to cover every aspect of your special occasion, guaranteeing a diverse collection of party pictures. If you're booking for the first time, here are the available event photography services:


  • Wedding Photography

Whether you need coverage for the entire day or just specific moments like the ceremony and reception, a wedding photographer expertly captures the beauty of your big day. They preserve your cherished memories through high-resolution photos you can look back on.


  • Indoor Concert Photography

A concert photographer takes stunning images reflecting the vibrant energy, intensity, and passion of live performances. Since they're pros at handling stage lighting and shadows, they can skillfully document iconic moments such as artist interactions and crowd excitement.


  • Music Festival Photography

Similar to concert photography, it's best to get experts who can snap the essence of music festivals. There's a wide range to cover, from main-stage events and attractions to hidden gems in the crowd. You can also elevate your festival memories with aerial shots through a drone photography service.


  • Graduation Ceremony and Celebration Documentation

Finishing school is a big milestone and demands quality graduation pictures. From capturing the emotion of receiving your diploma to candid shots of hugs and handshakes, a graduation photographer ensures you get breathtaking photos that encapsulate this momentous occasion.


  • Graduation Portraits

If you want formal graduation photos, you can opt for studio shots. With the perfect lighting, backdrop, and equipment for half-body or full-body portraits, a graduation photographer can commemorate the pride of your achievement.


  • Anniversary Party Photography

Another milestone occasion is anniversaries, and a party photographer can take care of capturing the love and joy of such events. Whether tin, pearl, or golden anniversary, hired Taskers preserve heartfelt moments, allowing you to reminisce and cherish your relationship journey.


  • Birthday and Themed Party Photography

Relax and enjoy your celebration while a party photographer films the fun. Your party pictures will cover all the details, from setup and decorating to cake cutting, dancing, and other festivities.


  • Corporate Event Photography

From conferences to holiday parties, an event photographer tailors an approach based on your requests. They can take photos highlighting your branding, staff, products, and services. These high-quality images will be perfect for your website, blog, or social media.


  • Photo Editing

Skilled photo editors can polish your pictures to perfection to achieve your desired aesthetic, colour scheme, and theme. When they're done, you'll receive copies for posting and sharing.

Graduation Photoshoot - UQ St Lucia

$80

St Lucia, Queensland

29th Oct 2024

I'll be graduating and want to have a photoshoot around UQ. E.g. the UQ Lakes area where there are beautiful Jacarandas, The Zelman Cowens building (with my lecturers), the Forgan Smith building, to name a few. I have a friend who is graduating as well. She might want to be in a few of the photos as well. Will do a top up of the fee if she wants to have a photoshoot with you separately (will check with her on this). Anyway I am looking to have just 10-15 photos for myself, so it's not a large job. If it goes well and the photos are nice, I will contact you again for a 2nd photoshoot, for the actual graduation ceremony on 16th Dec with my parents.
