Galas & Fundraisers in Fort Worth: photography & video

Galas and fundraisers need photos that work long after the night ends: for the press release, the annual report, sponsor thank-yous and next year's invitation. MacroSnaps photographers and videographers cover the red carpet and step-and-repeat, honorees and speakers, the live auction and paddle raise, and the guests and sponsors who made the evening possible. We aim for photos your team can use across print, web and social media without extra editing.

Fort Worth is one of the biggest cities in Texas, home to roughly 833,000 people. We cover gala or fundraiser events at hotel ballrooms, museums and event venues across the area, from Kimbell Art Museum, Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth and Fort Worth Botanic Garden to private homes, restaurants and community halls. Fort Worth mixes Western heritage with a strong museum district, and the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo each January and February is one of its biggest annual draws. Ranch-style and Stockyards weddings are common, and spring and fall avoid the worst of North Texas summer heat.

We work closely with your development and communications teams before the event. A shot list of VIPs, board members, sponsors and honorees lets us make sure the people who matter most to your organization are photographed, and the full gallery is retouched and usually ready in about one week. A highlight video can also be used to open next year's event or support your fundraising appeal.

For a typical gala or fundraiser, clients in Fort Worth book about 5 hours of photography ($650) and 4 hours of videography ($900). 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 Fort Worth costs the same as anywhere else we work, and there are no quotes to wait for.
