The best event coverage begins before the event. A clear brief lets a visual storyteller spend the day on your people and your message, not on guessing. Here is what we like to know, and what we suggest you prepare.

Coverage that reflects your people and your brand

## 1. Define the purpose

Why is the event happening, and what will the images be used for? A website refresh, an annual report, social channels and internal communications each call for different frames. Tell us the audiences, and we will shape the coverage.

## 2. Share the schedule

- A run of show with times, rooms and speakers
- The moments that cannot be missed: an award, a keynote, a ribbon cutting
- Any breaks or quiet periods where portraits or details can be captured

## 3. Name the key people

Provide a list of executives, speakers, guests of honor and partners. A person who can point them out on the day is a great help.

## 4. Describe the brand

Share your brand guidelines, colors and any visual style you prefer. Give examples of coverage you like and coverage you do not.

The details that make an event feel like yours

## 5. Confirm logistics

- Venue address, parking and load-in details
- A contact who will be on site
- Any access, security or badge requirements
- Rules on filming, drones or flash in the venue

## 6. Agree on delivery

Decide how many images you need, how soon, and who will receive them. If you need quick images for social media during the event, say so in advance.

## Frequently asked questions

**How far ahead should we brief you?** As early as the date is set, and again a few days before with the final schedule.

**Can you handle multi-day or multi-location events?** Yes. Share the full schedule and we will plan coverage across it.

**Do you offer annual coverage?** Yes. Many organizations build an ongoing relationship so their visual story stays consistent. Explore our [corporate event coverage](https://perfectionshoots.com/corporate-events) or [university event coverage](https://perfectionshoots.com/university-events).

## Planning an executive production?

Tell us about your event and your goals, and we will plan how to cover it.
