A 30-year celebration at Shade Hotel.

On December 5, 2025, SQA Services gathered their team from national and international offices at Shade Hotel in Redondo Beach to celebrate 30 years in business — a five-hour evening that ran through cocktails on the wrap-around balcony, a seated dinner under ring chandeliers, leadership remarks, a 30-year cake cutting, a roaming magician working the room, and a packed dance floor.

What we cover

The kinds of corporate moments we routinely shoot.

01 / Holiday

Holiday Parties

Year-end celebrations at restaurants, hotels, country clubs, and private venues. Cocktail-hour candids, seated-dinner coverage, recognition, and the dance floor — packaged for the next-day recap email and the year-end retrospective.

02 / Milestone

Milestone Celebrations

Anniversaries, IPOs, fund closes, building openings, and team offsites. Coverage built around the leadership moments and team-wide reactions that drive the company story for years afterward.

03 / Mixers & Galas

Mixers, Galas & Networking

Client appreciation events, partner mixers, and annual galas. Discreet coverage that captures the room without ever interrupting the conversation — for use across LinkedIn, internal comms, and next year's event marketing.

Frequently Asked

Corporate event questions.

How far in advance should we book a corporate event photographer?

For Q4 holiday parties, booking by early September is the sweet spot — the calendar fills quickly from October onward. For year-round milestone celebrations and galas, 8–12 weeks of lead time is ideal, but we routinely accept shorter notice when the calendar allows.

Do you cover speeches, awards, and recognition moments?

Yes — recognition moments, leadership remarks, anniversary cake cuttings, award handoffs, and toast captures are core to every corporate event package. Coverage is built to land the moments your internal comms team will use across newsletters, intranet, LinkedIn, and the next investor deck.

Can you provide same-day social content during the event?

Yes — same-day social is available as an add-on. A roving editor offloads cards every 60–90 minutes and pushes a small batch of polished selects to your social manager during the event itself, so the team can post in real time without compromising final-gallery quality.

Do you bring lighting for venues that are dim or backlit?

Always. Every corporate event package includes off-camera lighting, modifiers, and the flexibility to adapt to the venue mid-event — bright ballrooms, candlelit dinners, harbor-view rooms at sunset, and dance floors all get handled with the same calm setup.
