Why book us for year-end function
Book early for Oct–Dec
Year-end is the single busiest window in the Gauteng events calendar. Dates and venues both book out weeks ahead — a 30% deposit locks your date and photographer so your function is not left scrambling in November.
We read the room
A staff party swings from formal awards to a full dance floor in one evening. Twenty years of event instinct means we catch the long-service handshake and the moment the team lets loose — not just the posed group shot.
Gallery live while morale is high
A 24-hour edited gallery means the team relives the night the very next day — ideal for internal comms, the intranet and next year’s recruitment marketing.
Frequently asked questions
How early should I book a year-end function photographer?
As early as possible. October to December is the busiest period of the year and photographers book out weeks in advance. We recommend confirming by September or early October — a 30% deposit secures your date.
Can you handle low light at an evening staff party?
Yes. Evening year-end functions are a low-light specialty — we shoot with fast lenses and controlled lighting so the awards, speeches and dance floor look great without a wall of intrusive flash.
Do you photograph both the awards and the party?
Yes. A typical year-end function moves from formal recognition and speeches into a social celebration. We cover the full arc — awards handovers, group shots, candids and dance-floor energy — in one booking.
How much does a year-end function photographer cost in Johannesburg?
From R2,950 for 2 hours. Most year-end functions fall between R6,450 and R11,900 depending on hours, guest numbers and whether a second shooter is needed. Prices exclude VAT and include a 24-hour edited gallery.
