MacroSnaps in Hayward

Corporate Holiday Parties in Hayward: photography & video

A company holiday party is one of the few times a whole team is in one room, often with partners and guests. MacroSnaps photographers and videographers cover end-of-year parties for companies of all sizes, from office gatherings to ballroom events, with candid photos of colleagues, team and department group photos, leadership remarks and any awards or recognitions. The result is a record of the year's people that you can share across the company.

Hayward is a major city in California, home to roughly 158,000 people. We cover holiday party events in banquet halls, hotels, places of worship, restaurants and private homes throughout Hayward and nearby Fremont and Oakland.

We know these photos are often used internally, on careers pages and on social media, so we keep the coverage professional and balanced. We focus on genuine moments between colleagues rather than people mid-bite, photograph every team you ask for, and coordinate with HR or your event planner about anything that shouldn't be shared. A short highlight video works well for internal communications and recruiting.

For a typical holiday party, clients in Hayward 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 Hayward costs the same as anywhere else we work, and there are no quotes to wait for.

Planning tips

Planning your coverage in Hayward

Book the first 3 to 4 hours

The most useful photos happen during arrivals, remarks and awards. Most companies book 3 to 4 hours rather than covering the party until the end.

Assign a point of contact

Someone who knows the team can help us find people for group photos and point out leadership and award recipients.

Let us know photo policies

If some employees prefer not to be photographed, or photos will be used publicly, tell us in advance so we can plan accordingly.

Add a photo booth or video

A photo booth gives employees photos to share, and a highlight video is useful for internal channels and recruiting.

Professional photography doesn't have to be expensive
