Why Hire an Event Photographer?
Event photographers are like documentarians here to capture not only your event, but the people attending the event. I am focused on taking high-quality images that capture the true emotions and memories being made that day. Along with any must-have shots the client requests for the event.
When planning an event, hiring a professional photographer should be at the top of the to do list. It may seem a little extra or unimportant, but you’ll be amazed at how valuable professional photography can be. Visit the FAQ section below to hear more!
Whatever event you’re planning, Allanah Renee Photography would love to be there to capture it for you! Contact me and tell me what you have planned so I can put your event on my calendar!
MY PHILOSOPHY
My goal is to create photos in a photojournalistic and unobtrusive way to help you to remember the day as it really happened.
No overly staged moments, awkward poses, or over-the-top props - just you and all the realness of your day.
MY PROMISE
It's important to me to make my clients feel comfortable throughout the entire process. I am a strong supporter of the LGBTQ+ community and believe in documenting love in every form. The most important thing to me is that my clients always feel safe, loved, and respected. My business is a place for acceptance and zero judgement for all.

FAQ
What is the difference between capturing the event with phones vs a photographer?
A.There's a few reasons why it is better to have a photographer at your event, rather than taking them yourselves on a phone...
Quality Photos:
You may be thinking you’ll just do all of this on your smart phone, and although they’ve come a long way, smart phones are not going to give you the quality that a good DSLR will. Setting your camera phone to “portrait mode” and adding filters doesn’t compare to professional results.
Creative Photos:
Not only will the quality of the photos themselves be better, the creativity will too. Photographers understand unique angles to make shots look more interesting and know little tricks to getting the best expressions out of your guests.
Editing:
Not only will a photographer thoroughly capture your event, we will also take the time afterwards to go through each and every photo and select the best shots. Also photographers have software for making adjustments and edits to make sure each photo is the best it can be.
You're Busy!:
Aside from the technical advantages, hiring a photographer frees you up to focus on being a good host. You will be busy at your event and chances are you’ll forget or you won’t have time to take photos. The next thing you know, the event is over and you’re left with no evidence.
What Impact will it have?
A.There are many impacts having a professional photographer at your event will have. Here are a few:
Impress Your Guests:
In addition to all the practical reasons to hire a photographer, having a professional takes your event to the next level. Just like hiring a caterer, bartender, band or DJ, it shows your guests that you are willing to go the extra mile.
Pics of You:
Ever go on that family vacation and no one knows you were there because you’re not in any of the pictures? Same thing happens when you play photographer at your own event. Having a professional photographer there ensures that you and your team members will all be included in the album.
Great Content:
With social media being such a prominent form of marketing these days, having constant content is crucial. And photos make great content. Posting candid shots or group photos from your event gives you something to share that shows your showt/business from a different angle.
Future Reference:
If your event is an annual one, you’ll want to look back a year from now and remember all the things you did that were successful - who was there, how you decorated, what food was served - so you can plan more efficiently and know what to do and what not to do.
What if I cannot afford the prices you have listed?
A.contact me. I would be more than happy to discuss pricing for what you are looking for. I understand events cost money, and even have a budget. I would love to be there to help capture your event, regardless of the cost.
Are you willing to travel?
A.Yes, I am willing to travel for an event. Prices may be adjusted to help with the cost of travel and accommodations.
