Event Photography
The event that I am asked about most often is a fundraiser for our current governor, Governor Kristi Noem. I had the opportunity to photograph President Donald Trump privately and publicly as he took photos with guests and gave a crowd-inspiring speech. Michael Woolheater Photography was the only private photographer in South Dakota allowed at the event. It was a true honor to be in the presence of our president and represent photography in South Dakota.
Taking Photos for the President of the United States
Events are diverse and can vary from small gatherings and celebrations to large fundraisers, company functions, or parties. Far too often the importance of photography at events is overlooked.
Event Photography Cont.
Make those memories and moments last a lifetime. Photography of meaningful events is great marketing materials for any business.
Event Photography Cont.
For every event I cover, I have a very specific and proprietary method for capturing the setup, the moment, the speakers, the guests, and all the other moving pieces of the event. I’ve been asked, what is the most difficult part of event photography and the answer is watching people and knowing when the best opportunities will present. It is by reading people near and far that a photographer can catch a guest or a speaker at just the right moment to make a person appear photogenic, natural, and comfortable.
