Graduation Ceremonies & Parties in Pomona: photography & video
Graduation is a milestone for the graduate and for everyone who helped them get there: parents, grandparents, teachers and friends. MacroSnaps photographers and videographers cover both sides of the day. We photograph and film commencement ceremonies for high schools, colleges, universities and programs, and the graduation parties that families host afterward, from backyard gatherings and restaurant dinners to larger celebrations with relatives who have travelled to be there.
Pomona is a major city in California, home to roughly 153,000 people. We cover graduation events in banquet halls, hotels, places of worship, restaurants and private homes throughout Pomona and nearby Ontario and Rancho Cucamonga.
For families, we often combine portraits on campus in cap and gown with coverage of the party later in the day, so the gallery tells the whole story. For schools and departments, we cover the procession, the speakers, each graduate crossing the stage and the celebrations on the lawn afterward. We organize the gallery in ceremony order, which makes it easier for the institution to share photos with graduates and their families.
For a typical graduation, clients in Pomona book about 3 hours of photography ($450) 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 Pomona costs the same as anywhere else we work, and there are no quotes to wait for.

Planning tips
Planning your coverage in Pomona
Check where photographers can stand
Many commencement venues have restricted areas. Schools that book us can arrange a position near the stage; families should plan portraits before or after the ceremony.
Book enough time for the ceremony
Large ceremonies can run 2 to 3 hours. For schools, we suggest booking the full ceremony plus 30 minutes afterward for celebrations and group photos.
Plan portraits for good light
Outdoor portraits work best in the morning or late afternoon. Midday sun in caps creates harsh shadows, so allow time for shaded locations.
Add video for schools and families
Schools often want a highlight video for their website and social media. A second videographer helps cover the stage and the audience at large ceremonies.
Professional photography doesn't have to be expensive
