Focuses specifically on professional event photography and delivering a complete edited gallery following the event. 
Responsibilities may include:

  • Capturing a mix of close-up, wide-angle, candid, and environmental images 
  • Editing and color-correcting selected photographs 
  • Delivering social-media-ready and uncropped versions when requested
