Mike & Matthew were so great to work with!! They did a wonderful job with our 4 kiddos (8 and under) - putting them at ease and drawing out some great smiles especially from our two oldest who sometimes give the dreaded forced smile (not a single forced smile in the whole bunch!). They are incredibly friendly and communicative. We are so pleased with the pictures that they took and had such a great time with them!read more

Absolutely a pleasure to work with! We used Mike and Matthew for a corporate reception event and on the trade show floor for their photo experience expertise. It came at the recommendation of one of my coworkers who had used them at another company, and I was maybe a little skeptical about how cool a photo booth could be. Working with Mike to figure out the backgrounds and props was very easy, and both of them were so engaging on-site that there was no way people were not participating! Will definitely integrate them into future events, highly recommended!read more

Look no further than US Event Photos for amazing convention or event photographs, connected technology and personable service with conventioneers. Our company has used them for many events all over the globe. The conventioneers love the photography staff. The client loves the results and delivery technology. I love that I can let them do their jobs with next to no management. If you are judging on only price, really consider what these guys offer for the price. Trust me, it's not worth it trying to take on any one of their offerings on your own when you can get it done painlessly with US Event photos.read more

Matthew and Mike are INCREDIBLE to work with -- they are some of the nicest people I've met. We've booked them for our trade show event to engage people within our booth by using a green screen to put them on the cover of the magazine. Matthew was energetic, friendly and a terrific brand ambassador throughout the entirety of our event. I would absolutely recommend them for any event-based photography sessions.read more

We've been using US Event Photos for our conventions for many years and are always pleased with the experience. We often have unique special events - from ski jumpers to concerts to 80's parties - and Mike always figures out a way to capture the fun in his photos. He's flexible and will always find a way to capture the shot you need (even if it's a group photo of 1000 people holding a sign shot from the stage during a presentation.) I especially love how quickly we get our photos as Mike uploads them to a shared Dropbox throughout the event. This has been extremely helpful for our Convention newspapers that get created during the event and delivered to our attendees. Our attendees love seeing their photos from the day before in their morning paper!read more
