A wedding photography timeline is your wedding day game plan. It's a detailed schedule that outlines where everyone needs to be and when—especially the two of you, your photographer (hey, that’s us!), and anyone important to the photo story of the day.

When you think of corporate photography, you probably picture booths, boardrooms, and breakout sessions. But your event is so much more than that—and your photos should show it.

That’s why concert photography for corporate events shouldn’t be an afterthought—it should be part of your pre-planning. Because when every part of your event is captured with intention, it tells a stronger story. Here’s how professional photography brings that story to life.
