Retirement & Farewell Parties in Queens: 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.

Queens is one of the largest cities in North America, home to roughly 2.3 million people. Whether your retirement party is at Terrace on the Park, Queens Botanical Garden or a family home, your MacroSnaps crew arrives early to check light, angles and any venue rules. Queens is home to both of New York City's major airports, which makes it a practical base for airport-hotel meetings, and its diverse communities support a large banquet-hall and multicultural wedding scene. Gantry Plaza and Hunters Point offer skyline views across the East River, best at sunset.

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 Queens 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 Queens costs the same as anywhere else we work, and there are no quotes to wait for.
