Swiss Moments is an event photographer in Zurich and across Switzerland for corporate events, conferences, galas, product launches and team events. We work quietly in the background, capture people and atmosphere in a natural reportage style and deliver an edited gallery your marketing, press and HR teams can use straight away. Photo, video and an AI photo & video booth come from one team.

Events for small teams, large corporate gatherings, Christmas parties, international conferences, concerts and brand activations – there are countless moments worth keeping. We have photographed events for more than ten years and over 500 events, and we still enjoy the same thing: people relaxing, meeting, learning something new and forgetting their daily duties for a few hours. On this page you see what an event photographer in Zurich does for you, how we work, what you receive – and a selection of our event photography portfolio.

What does an event photographer in Zurich photograph?

We cover the whole event – from the empty, perfectly set room to the last guests on the dance floor. Most of our work is for companies, event agencies and advertising agencies in Zurich, Geneva, Basel, Bern and across Switzerland:

  • Corporate events – anniversaries, summer parties, Christmas parties, team events
  • Conferences, forums and trade fairs – speakers, panels, networking, booths
  • Galas and award nights – arrivals, stage moments, winners
  • Product launches and brand activations – for press and social media
  • Concerts and festivals – stage, crowd and atmosphere
  • Sports and team-building events – action and teamwork

Corporate event photography – what you get

Event photos are content your company uses for months: on the website, on LinkedIn and Instagram, in press releases, newsletters, annual reports and internal communication. That is why we photograph with your use in mind – speakers and key people, guests and real emotions, branding and partners, and wide shots of the whole venue.

After the event you receive an edited selection of high-resolution photos in an online gallery – colour-corrected, consistent and ready to use. If you need a few photos during the event for social media, tell us in the brief and we plan for it. Our event photography shot list helps you prepare the brief in ten minutes.

How we work on the day

A good event photographer is someone the guests hardly notice. We move quietly, use available light where it looks best and add flash only where it helps.

  1. Brief: programme, key people, sponsors, must-have shots and how you will use the photos.
  2. Before guests arrive: venue, decoration, branding and set-up details.
  3. During the event: speakers, guests, networking, emotions, awards and entertainment.
  4. After the event: careful selection and editing, delivered as an online gallery.

Press walls, photo walls and individual event solutions

A professional event photographer can do more than walk around the venue. A press wall or branded photo wall with proper studio light turns every arrival into a polished portrait of guests, sponsors and VIPs – ideal for press, partners and social media. Light makes the difference here, so we bring our own. On request we add instant prints, so guests take a printed photo home the same evening.

Want something guests will talk about? Combine the press wall with our AI Photo & Video Booth.

Why hire a professional event photographer?

  • Low light is the norm at events. Dark halls, coloured stage light and candles need experience and the right gear – phone photos rarely survive it.
  • Nobody on your team has to work behind the camera. Your colleagues host, network and enjoy the event.
  • Consistent, brand-ready images. One look across all photos, edited for your website, social media and press.
  • The moments you only get once. Speeches, awards and reactions don’t repeat – an event photographer is in the right place before they happen.

Event video: highlight films, speaker clips and reels

Many clients book photo and video together – one team, one brief, one consistent look. We film highlight films, speaker and panel recordings, interviews and vertical reels your social media team can post the same week. See all formats and films on our event videographer in Zurich page.

AI Photo & Video Booth: the highlight for your guests

Our AI Photo & Video Booth turns each guest into a personalised scene in your brand world – as astronauts, superheroes or in a custom theme with your logo. Guests receive the result on their phone within moments, also as a printed photo. With the AI video booth the same idea becomes a short clip guests love to share.

It works perfectly next to the event photographer: the booth creates shareable content for every guest, while we capture the real atmosphere. Read how it worked at three European congresses.
