Pictures Pro is taking onsite photography and printing to an entirely new level
Are you looking for an on-site event photography company that will not only product professional photographs, but print professional lab quality prints right away?
PicturesPro has the equipment and expertise to not only take photo’s at your desired location, but produce prints immediately onsite. Events that PicturesPro have covered a large variety of events including corporate functions and conventions, golf tournaments, sport teams, graduations, team photos, Matric farewells, Pantomimes, Concerts, Comedy shows, Miss South Africa, Santa events over Christmas and more. Additional services include the supply of props suitable for all occasions. Like traditional photography, PicturePro also undertakes normal studio set-ups with lights and backdrops. One of the strengths of PicturesPro is our ability to setup a green screen studio either indoors or outdoors if needed. This allows us to personalise your background image to suit your requirement and the occasion. We can imprint information onto photos such as themes, company logos, names and dates. This is done at no extra charge except if intensive designing is required.
Capturing great memories are perfect for long lasting marketing and branding purposes
PicturesPro offers a new and market leading solution which is not only innovative, but offers a long lasting cost-effective marketing tool. Your pictures will serve to build your brand and a constant reminder to your clients or staff just the same as travel postcards, brochures, invitations and fliers by printing your business logo and telephone number onto the photo. The difference is that our photo’s are not thrown away and remain in sight as a constant reminder of a great memory.
Why PicturesPro?
PicturesPro takes traditional event photography to a whole new level in the world of instant gratification. Why wait days or even weeks to develop, sort, print and enlarge. By the time you get the prints it’s too late to discover that you were captured with your eyes closed or something else was amiss when the photograph was taken. The beauty of digital imaging is that we don’t print a photo that you are not entirely happy with; another plus is that you can take your photos home with you right away. PicturesPro professional photographers take several digital photos and where possible shows them to the client where they immediately select those they would like, deleting the rest. If the client is not happy we start the process again until we capture the desired photo, only then do these images go for print on the size print of your choice available at the event. You only select those you want; and we print them there and then. Smile, Click, Print, its that simple! The whole process takes place at the event. A5 or A4 prints are available in immediately, in the style you require and as many as your require
Who are we?
PicturesPro is an innovative and dynamic business specialising in onsite photography, onsite printing and more so green screen studio work. Owners James and Delme are both experienced photographers having won many international and local awards, published two books and personally photographed many disciples including studio work, stock photography, food, extreme sports and many more. Over the past few years we have embraced technology and invested in state of the art equipment, software and hardware to remain at the cutting edge of producing onsite images, the printing thereof and in volume. Our ultimate goal is to provide our clients with a fast reliable quality service that allows the customer to choose the photographs he or she wants, and to provide the prints there and then. Although technological development yielded SLR cameras for high-resolution imaging, the plan to print photos on-site initially posed a problem. We employ the latest printers from Mitsubishi which yield a photo quality that surpasses that of you normal print lab. The print size offered is larger than that of the lab and during the printer’s final pass, it lays down a clear laminate, which protects your pictures from fingerprints, moisture and fading. Our prints are guaranteed to outlast conventional photographic prints; they are impermeable to water, smudge and scratch proof.
In the past consumers were obliged to wait for days or even weeks for photographs of important events such as sporting events, reunions, business conventions and other occasions. At PicturesPro the waiting period is dramatically shortened; we bring the darkroom to the event. Our complete solution contains all the digital imaging and printing equipment needed to capture and deliver images on-site. We drive the unit to functions, sport events, school plays, trade shows, music festivals, and other events to provide on-site delivery of products to attendees.
Capturing those candid moments
Here one would categorise events like professional and amateur sporting events, motor sport events, cycling, fun runs and large events like motorbike rallies, beer and music festivals and the like. What we do here is simple; one or more PicturesPro photographers photograph everything and everybody. These images are available on laptops in categories for the client to view and order. Members of the public select photos they like, which are then printed on demand. If required, these images may be uploaded to a digital download service to be viewed at a later stage and ordered online.
We accept Visa / MasterCard credit card payments for photo sales at any event.
Something for Formal events
Photographing formal events and corporate functions may require that a studio with lights and backdrops be set up. Several photos are taken of the same subject to provide the customer with a selection to choose from. The images, which are printed on the spot, may be personalised with a corporate logo or name of theme and date of event. We offer web posting of your Event Photographs, which allows attendees to view and order additional prints online. We have three portable studio’s, one of which is a green screen and the other is a printed backdrop measuring 4 meters wide which we could print a background of your choosing.
Digital Downloads and Social Media Images
A simple and cost effective way to buy photos of smaller get-togethers like school or university sport events; or school socials, is to have us take the photo’s and upload them on a platform we use for digital download at a later stage. Images would be available in four different sizes and qualities from files suitable for social media to printing an A2 print or bigger. PicturesPro photographers cover the event and put the images up online where they can be viewed and ordered.
Onsite Printing
Images that are printed on demand at events are printed on Mitsubishi printers to ensure consistent high quality. The sizes available from our printers are A5 and A4. Additional print sizes or printing on different substrates available on request.
