When you choose us as your political campaign photographer, we will go out of our way to capture the photographs that you value, no matter your political stance!

Benefits Of A Campaign Photographer


Personal Image
Professional campaign photos help improve your personal image.

Media Coverage
Campaign photos provide you with valuable content for media promotion and coverage.

Voter Connection
Great political campaign photos will resonate and build confidence with your voter base.

Personal Image

A political campaign photographer will provide you with campaign photography that enhances the overall personal image of a political candidate. This is done by creating photographs that showcase stories, moments, and actions that exude the values and goals of a candidate.

Typically, the values and vision of a political candidate should be conveyed to the campaign photographer in advance of the campaign, allowing the photographer to keep an eye out for moments and actions that will help portray those values and vision.

Media Coverage

The photographs and images that a political campaign photographer will provide you, work great for media promotion and coverage. The content provided by a campaign photographer can be used in press releases, televised media, social media, websites, email marketing, and print marketing such as billboards, banners, yard signs, and more.

When you choose us as your Knoxville political campaign photographer, you are free to use the images we provide you however you wish!

Voter Connection

A great political campaign photographer will improve your voter connection by creating photographs that will particularly resonate with your target voter base and potentially outside of your target base. It is said in marketing, that great marketing not only attracts but also repels. However, when it comes to political campaigns it is a numbers game.

Although the primary goal is to resonate with your voter base, imagery that can also sway fringe voters is even better. A great set of political campaign photos may include 80% of the images that will resonate with the primary voter base, with the remaining 20% of images being photographs that may sway voters on the fringe.

Coverage

When photographing political campaigns, we will aim to showcase and highlight the candidate's overall vision and values in a way that will resonate with the voter base. Political campaign coverage can include photography of political fundraisers, political conventions, political conferences, meet and greets, speeches, interviews, and more.

Political photography coverage is ideal for auditors, commissioners, congressmen, congresswomen, councilmen, councilwomen, district attorneys, governors, mayors, representatives, school board members, senators, sheriffs, treasurers, and more.

Approach

When photographing political campaigns, we will typically photograph with a mixture of wide, medium, and long lenses.

Wide lenses will allow us to showcase large areas and groups. Medium lenses allow us to capture document moments as the human eye sees them. Long telephoto lenses allow us to be discreet and capture photos from a distance. While photographing, we will aim to be as discreet as possible and blend in. There may be scenarios in which it is prudent to be "In the action" and we are not afraid to do so!

Although a majority of campaign photography will be captured in a candid manner, we will also capture more formal group photos when needed. These are also known as "Grip and Grins".

When a political candidate is interacting with voters, we will aim to capture genuine and authentic reactions from both the candidate's angle, as well as the voter's angle. During these interactive moments, we will adopt our storytelling photograph approach which means we will anticipate moments before they happen, photograph through the moment, and continue photographing after the moment for candidate and voter reaction photos.

During political events such as speeches and political conventions, where the surrounding venue lighting may not be ideal, we may employ off-camera lighting when necessary. For a majority of events, we will often use available light when possible to showcase the candidate and the location in an authentic manner.
