As the new year begins, I’m reflecting on the exciting journey of my photography business so far and looking ahead to what 2025 has in store. Events photography is such a dynamic and creative field, and I can’t wait to capture more incredible moments this year.
Here’s a peek into the trends I’m predicting for the next 12 months and the types of events I’d love to shoot professionally.
What’s on the Horizon for Event Photography in 2025
1. Immersive and Experiential Events
Events are becoming more interactive and immersive, with audiences craving experiences they can connect with on a deeper level. Whether it’s live music gigs with stunning visuals, circus performances blending art and athleticism, or interactive theatre productions, I anticipate a rise in events prioritising audience engagement. Capturing these moments through photography will be all about telling the story of connection and emotion.
2. Bold Visual Aesthetics
With social media continuing to dominate how we share experiences, events are going bolder with their visuals. From creative lighting and vibrant colours to unique staging and costume designs, event organisers are pushing boundaries to create photo-worthy moments. I’m excited to embrace these bold aesthetics and reflect them through my lens.
3. Sustainability and Authenticity
Eco-conscious events are on the rise, with organizers seeking to reduce their environmental impact. This trend goes hand-in-hand with a focus on authenticity—celebrating genuine moments and raw emotions. For photographers, this means capturing events in a way that highlights their individuality and purpose.
What I’d Love to Shoot in 2025
I’m fortunate to have already worked on some incredible projects, but this year I’d love to explore even more:
• Live Music: Whether it’s intimate gigs, arena shows, or festival stages, capturing the energy and passion of live music is always a thrill.
• Circus Performances: The blend of artistry, physicality, and drama in contemporary circus is something I find endlessly inspiring.
• Dance and Theatre: Movement and storytelling are at the heart of these art forms, and photographing them requires a unique approach to capturing flow and emotion.
• Festivals: From music to arts and everything in between, festivals are vibrant, unpredictable, and always full of incredible photo opportunities.
• Corporate and Private Events: I love bringing a creative edge to these events, capturing the atmosphere and details that make them memorable.
Why Work with Me in 2025?
I approach every event with a fresh perspective, a keen eye for detail, and a passion for storytelling. Whether it’s the raw energy of a gig, the elegance of a dance performance, or the joyful chaos of a festival, my goal is to create images that reflect the spirit of the event and resonate with the audience.
If you’re planning an event this year and looking for a photographer to bring your vision to life, I’d love to hear from you. Let’s make 2025 a year of unforgettable moments—captured forever.
