The Difference Between Good and Great

How the room feels to guests is not the same as how light translates in photos.

How planners work with photographers:

Enough light for the photographer to work without flash if desired – because flash changes the mood and not everyone likes the look of direct flash photography.

Kollysphere has had photographers thank us for the lighting conditions because how the room is lit is what photographers care about most.

Backdrop and Photo Wall Creation

The designated picture spot will be where you will get the most images.

Proper placement – not in a dark corner, not blocking traffic flow, not competing with other visual elements.

The Centerpiece of Food Photos

The dessert table are always captured by the photographer.

A planner who thinks about photos ensures that the cake looks beautiful.

What cake and dessert styling includes:
