I'm Chris Whittam, a corporate and event photographer based in Wakefield, covering Leeds, Bradford, Sheffield and events right across the UK. I've photographed events for some of the UK's biggest brands including WWE, Hilton, Battersea Dogs & Cats Home and the UK Space Agency.

Many of these events were photographed in my role as a corporate event photographer in Leeds and across Yorkshire.

Photographer teams for larger events

For conferences, awards evenings and multi-room events, one camera is not enough. I field photographer teams, project managed end to end: one point of contact, one consistent editing style across every camera, one invoice. Team dress codes, risk assessments and method statements are handled as standard. I have delivered team coverage for national brands including Domino's, and I work white label for agencies. I can also organise video alongside the photography: my video team is led by a producer with a Masters degree in Media Production, so one booking and one point of contact covers stills and film. Teams are priced per brief, so tell me about the event and I will build the cover it needs. Read the Domino's awards case study.

Whatever your event, I'll make sure it looks as good as it felt.

Tell me about your event and let's get it booked in.

Frequently asked questions

How quickly will we receive our event photos?

Same-day highlight images are available for social media and press when agreed in advance. Your full edited gallery follows promptly, and I agree the exact delivery date with you before the event.

How are the images delivered?

Through a secure online gallery where you can download every image in full resolution and share access with your team, sponsors or PR agency.

Can you deliver photos during the event itself?

Yes. For awards evenings and conferences I can supply a rush selection during or immediately after the event, ready for LinkedIn and press while the story is still live.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. Chris Whittam Photography holds £2 million public liability insurance, and documentation is available for your venue on request.

What are your payment terms?

A deposit secures your date, with the balance invoiced on completion. You will have a clear written quote before anything is booked.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is free within roughly 30 miles of Wakefield, which covers Leeds, Bradford, Huddersfield and most of West Yorkshire. Beyond that, mileage is agreed in your quote up front.

What can we use the photographs for?

Your licence covers marketing, PR, social media and internal communications at no extra cost. I retain copyright and may use selected images in my portfolio unless we agree otherwise.

What types of events do you cover?

Conferences, awards evenings, gala dinners, product launches, exhibitions, networking events, team away days and company celebrations across Yorkshire and nationwide.

How do you handle photo consent and GDPR?

I work unobtrusively, follow your organisation's photography policy, and can supply a ready-made image use consent form for your guests or staff.

What happens if equipment fails on the night?

Every frame is written to two memory cards simultaneously and galleries are backed up the same night, so your images are protected from the moment they are taken.

Do you work outside Yorkshire?

Yes. Recent commissions include London, Birmingham, Manchester and Oxford. If the event matters, the distance rarely does.

How far ahead should we book?

Four to six weeks is comfortable for most events. Autumn awards season and Christmas party dates go earliest - if you have a date in mind, it is worth confirming it now.

Can you cover a large event with more than one photographer?

Yes. I field photographer teams for conferences, awards nights and multi-room events, project managed by me: one point of contact, one consistent edit, one invoice. I have delivered team coverage for national brands including Domino's, and I work white label for agencies.

Can you organise video as well as photography?

Yes. I run photography and video as one booking with one point of contact. My video team is led by a producer with a Masters degree in Media Production, and highlight films start from £950 + VAT. See the corporate video production page at chriswhittam.com/corporate-video-production/.
