Awards, Galas & Fundraisers Photography in Vancouver, BC
Why gala coverage matters to fundraising
Gala imagery is not just memory-keeping—it’s a growth tool. Sponsors want prominence, donors want recognition, and communications teams need on-brand visuals for post-event emails, press, and next year’s sponsorship packages. We deliver clean, flattering photos and short social clips that hit these outcomes.
Our gala shot list
Atmosphere & décor: Room-wide scenes, lighting, centrepieces, sponsor signage.
Red carpet & step-and-repeat: Properly lit portraits that look great on social and press.
Stage & awards: Crisp angles of honourees, presenters, and performers with readable screens.
Donors & VIPs: Natural interactions and acknowledgements to support stewardship.
Entertainment & live auction: Energy, participation, and winning moments.
Lighting, etiquette & timing
Galas are dim and fast. We balance fast glass, on-camera diffusion, and portable strobes to produce cinematic but accurate files. We coordinate with show callers to anticipate stage moments and remain unobtrusive.
Highlights and gallery delivery
Ask for same-night or next-morning highlights for socials and PR. Full galleries are delivered promptly, organized by segments (red carpet, stage, sponsors, décor) to speed internal workflows.
Service area
We work across Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, Surrey, Coquitlam, North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Langley, and New Westminster; travel available for Whistler, Victoria, Nanaimo, Kelowna, and the Okanagan.
