Corporate event coverage · New York

In short

Corporate event coverage in New York starts at $950: 4 hours on location with a photographer who works in New York, and 150 edited photos delivered to a private gallery within 5 business days.

Why choose Corporate event coverage in New York?

Corporate event coverage in New York is four hours of photography at a conference, launch or company gathering, priced from $950 for more than 150 retouched photographs and a commercial license. New York events tend to be short and dense: a breakfast panel in a Midtown hotel, a product launch in a Chelsea gallery, an evening reception on a Hudson River pier. Four hours usually covers the whole program. The 20 same-day preview images matter more here than in most cities, because the event’s own social posts compete that evening with every other launch in Manhattan.

Worth knowing about New York

The consent question at a New York corporate event is set by state law. New York Civil Rights Law section 50 makes it a misdemeanor to use a living person’s name, portrait or picture for advertising or trade without that person’s written consent, or a parent’s or guardian’s for a minor. Event photographs that will appear in paid ads or sales material therefore rely on photo consent in the registration terms, and attendees who decline are identified at check-in and kept out of frame.

FAQ — Corporate event coverage in New York

Do attendees need to consent to be photographed at a New York corporate event?

For advertising use, yes. New York Civil Rights Law section 50 requires a living person’s written consent before their portrait or picture is used for advertising or trade purposes, so a New York corporate event that will reuse its photographs in ads should include photo consent in its registration terms. Attendees who opt out are pointed out to the photographer at check-in and left out of frame.

How quickly are photos from a New York corporate event delivered?

Twenty preview images are delivered the same day, usually within a few hours of the event closing, so a New York company can post that evening. The full gallery of more than 150 retouched photographs follows within 5 business days, with a commercial license for the company’s own use.
