Selection Standard
What earns a photograph a place in the gallery
Judicious selection is the standard. We choose photographs that identify your event: the people who gathered, the setting, and the exchanges that made the evening useful.
- Guests in conversation, with both faces sharp when two people are talking
- Room photographs that accurately represent turnout and the energy of the gathering
- Food, bar, and setting that identify this night rather than a generic lounge
- A panel or remarks only when they were actually on your program
- Guest photographs made during the gathering, with setup details covered separately
Coverage built around your hosted event
- Your program sets the coverage: guest conversations, your speakers, and the setting you chose.
- Overlapping events can affect arrivals. We plan room photographs around actual guest flow.
- A Marina rooftop, a SoMa dinner, and a hotel panel each need a different plan for light, access, and timing.
- A panel and the reception around it can share one evening, with time reserved to cover each.
- Confirm the current organizer calendar and your venue booking before setting coverage times.
Put your venue and guest arrivals on the call sheet
SF Tech Week events are spread across the city. Send your exact address, entrance, room or rooftop access, and program times. If guests are coming from another event, allow for travel and staggered arrivals. A SoMa dinner and a Marina rooftop need different arrival plans, even when they start at the same time.
Photographs your team can use after the evening
Tell us where the images will go: a thank-you email, a recap, partner follow-up, or the next invitation. We photograph guests in conversation, your branding in context, and the details that distinguish your event. Flag any customers, speakers, or partners your team especially needs to include.
Give the panel and reception their own coverage time
If your evening combines a panel with a reception, put both on the program. The panel needs clear speaker photographs, exchanges between panelists, and audience reactions. Reception coverage follows guest arrivals, conversations, and the setting. Share remarks and introductions in advance so neither part is missed.
Plan for overlapping events and early image needs
Guests may arrive from other events or leave for another program. We plan group photographs, remarks, and room coverage around those movements. Standard delivery is 48 hours from event close. If a next-morning post needs a small set, agree on accelerated delivery before the event.
