Retirement & Farewell Parties in Detroit: photography & video

A retirement party marks the end of a career that may have lasted decades, and it brings together colleagues, former team members, family and friends who rarely share a room. MacroSnaps photographers and videographers cover retirement and farewell parties hosted by companies, departments and families, from an office send-off to a restaurant dinner or banquet hall celebration.

Detroit is one of the biggest cities in Michigan, home to roughly 677,000 people. Whether your retirement party is at Detroit Institute of Arts, The Fillmore Detroit or a family home, your MacroSnaps crew arrives early to check light, angles and any venue rules. The auto industry anchors Detroit's meetings and trade-show market, including the Detroit Auto Show at Huntington Place, and restored historic buildings downtown have become popular for galas and weddings. Summer and early fall are the prime outdoor seasons along the riverfront, while winters are cold and gray.

The heart of these events is the tributes: speeches from managers and colleagues, stories from family, the slideshow of photos from earlier years and the retiree's own words at the end. We make sure those moments are covered, along with group photos with each team and generation of colleagues, and candid photos of people reconnecting. Tell us who should be in the gallery and we'll find them.

For a typical retirement party, clients in Detroit book about 3 hours of photography ($450) and 2 hours of videography ($500). 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 Detroit costs the same as anywhere else we work, and there are no quotes to wait for.
