Award Ceremonies in Memphis: photography & video

Award ceremonies produce photos that winners, sponsors and organizers all want to use: the presentation on stage, the acceptance speech and the posed photo with the award. MacroSnaps photographers and videographers cover industry awards, employee recognition events, school and community honors and nonprofit award dinners, making sure every honoree is photographed properly and that the photos are ready to use in announcements, newsletters and next year's promotion.

Memphis is one of the biggest cities in Tennessee, home to roughly 656,000 people. We cover award ceremony events at hotel ballrooms, museums and event venues across the area, from Memphis Brooks Museum of Art, Dixon Gallery and Gardens and Memphis Botanic Garden to private homes, restaurants and community halls. Memphis is a logistics and healthcare hub, home to FedEx's global headquarters and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, which keeps corporate and medical meetings steady. Music history drives much of its tourism, including Memphis in May each spring, and summers are hot and humid enough that evening shoots are often preferred.

The key to award coverage is preparation. We work from your run of show and list of winners, agree on a position with a clear view of the stage and plan a backdrop for posed winner photos. When a ceremony has many categories, we keep photos organized by order so your team can identify and send them to each winner without guesswork.

For a typical award ceremony, clients in Memphis book about 4 hours of photography ($550) and 3 hours of videography ($700). Photography is $250 for the first hour and $100 for each additional hour; videography is $300 for the first hour and $200 for each additional hour, with a 2-hour minimum. The first-hour price includes travel, so Memphis costs the same as anywhere else we work, and there are no quotes to wait for.
