Fi was AMAZING!!! We were having a wedding anniversary party, and she kindly came and met us for a coffee beforehand to get to know us and make sure she was clear on the task. We had given references of what we liked and she matched them brilliantly! She was great at capturing lovely moments, in a really unobtrusive manner. We would absolutely recommend Fi for your event! Thanks a mill Fi! Lauren and Sam

What does event photographers service include?

Your event photographer will coordinate all pre-session details with you so they're fully equipped with the gear tailored to your venue, lighting, and crowd size.


They'll also include photos of the aesthetics and all other details to cover every aspect of your special occasion, guaranteeing a diverse collection of party pictures. If you're booking for the first time, here are the available event photography services:


  • Wedding Photography

Whether you need coverage for the entire day or just specific moments like the ceremony and reception, a wedding photographer expertly captures the beauty of your big day. They preserve your cherished memories through high-resolution photos you can look back on.


  • Indoor Concert Photography

A concert photographer takes stunning images reflecting the vibrant energy, intensity, and passion of live performances. Since they're pros at handling stage lighting and shadows, they can skillfully document iconic moments such as artist interactions and crowd excitement.


  • Music Festival Photography

Similar to concert photography, it's best to get experts who can snap the essence of music festivals. There's a wide range to cover, from main-stage events and attractions to hidden gems in the crowd. You can also elevate your festival memories with aerial shots through a drone photography service.


  • Graduation Ceremony and Celebration Documentation

Finishing school is a big milestone and demands quality graduation pictures. From capturing the emotion of receiving your diploma to candid shots of hugs and handshakes, a graduation photographer ensures you get breathtaking photos that encapsulate this momentous occasion.


  • Graduation Portraits

If you want formal graduation photos, you can opt for studio shots. With the perfect lighting, backdrop, and equipment for half-body or full-body portraits, a graduation photographer can commemorate the pride of your achievement.


  • Anniversary Party Photography

Another milestone occasion is anniversaries, and a party photographer can take care of capturing the love and joy of such events. Whether tin, pearl, or golden anniversary, hired Taskers preserve heartfelt moments, allowing you to reminisce and cherish your relationship journey.


  • Birthday and Themed Party Photography

Relax and enjoy your celebration while a party photographer films the fun. Your party pictures will cover all the details, from setup and decorating to cake cutting, dancing, and other festivities.


  • Corporate Event Photography

From conferences to holiday parties, an event photographer tailors an approach based on your requests. They can take photos highlighting your branding, staff, products, and services. These high-quality images will be perfect for your website, blog, or social media.


  • Photo Editing

Skilled photo editors can polish your pictures to perfection to achieve your desired aesthetic, colour scheme, and theme. When they're done, you'll receive copies for posting and sharing.

WOMEN ONLY TASK - to take photographs and videos at my coaching event.

$100

Collingwood VIC 3066, Australia

25th Feb 2026

I am hosting a life and confidence coaching event for approx. 12 women in a high-tea salon venue. I am looking for a photographer/videographer to take some photos at beginning/end and sporadicly throughout. I need some photos to share on social media afterwards and to use in applying for future speaking assignments. A group photo at the end would be wonderful as well. I do not need detailed coverage of the entire event and am conscious this is a small group in an intimate cafe setting so I do not want a photographer invading personal space. Therefore the photographer will be invited to participate and get free entry to my ticketed event, plus will be provided with free luxurious high-tea and drinks so their presence feels more natural (like you are a friend of mine there to join the event and just capturing some moments thorughout). Please feel welcome to reach out to me if this sounds suitable to you and we can discuss details further.

I'm looking for an event photographer for tomorrow - all day!

$600

Collingwood VIC 3066, Australia

4th Feb 2026

I'm running an event in Collingwood Yards across two spaces within the same building. The exact timing of the day will be 9.50 - 4.20ish. For the morning, we'll only use one space (from 10-1pm), then we'll have a 30 min break for lunch, and the second three hours, we will have a panel running and also a workshop down the hall - it should be pretty easy to split your time between the panel and the workshop for those three hours. I'm looking for someone who has photography experience to capture the day. The output will be great event images (I say this because I had a photographer one time who sent me pretty much black and green imagery which was odd!). We don't expect heavy editing of the images but we want to be able to use these to showcase the day moving forward. Happy to answer questions! Examples from our last event included

Would work wit Madeleine again!
