Event Photography at The Westin Denver International Airport

The Westin Denver International Airport offers more than 36,000 square feet of event space with 24 event rooms and 15 breakout rooms. Its combination of two large ballrooms, smaller meeting rooms and extensive pre-function space allows organizations to host everything from executive meetings to conferences with hundreds of attendees.

The Spruce Ballroom is the hotel's largest event space and can accommodate up to 850 guests for a reception. The Alder Ballroom provides another large option, while numerous smaller rooms can accommodate breakout sessions, workshops and executive meetings.

The Grand Foyer is another distinctive part of the property, with its glass dome and views toward the Colorado Front Range and airport runways.

For photography, this variety allows us to create a gallery that moves beyond photographs of speakers onstage and shows the broader attendee experience throughout the event.

Our photography coverage can include:

• Corporate conferences

• Multi-day events

• Executive meetings

• General sessions

• Keynote speakers

• Panel discussions

• Breakout sessions

• Workshops

• Networking

• Receptions

• Awards and recognition

• Sponsor activities

• Group photographs

• Event décor and branding

• Professional headshots

• Candid attendee interactions

Events We've Photographed at The Westin Denver International Airport

Our experience at The Westin Denver International Airport includes events for Endologix and the Elements E3 Conference. These assignments have given our team firsthand familiarity with photographing professional events at the property.

Endologix

We've photographed an event for Endologix at The Westin Denver International Airport, documenting the speakers, attendees and interactions throughout the program.

For corporate meetings, our Meeting & Seminar Photography is designed to provide useful professional imagery without allowing the photography to become a distraction.

We work unobtrusively during presentations and discussions while looking for strong moments of audience engagement. Between sessions, our approach becomes more candid as we document networking, conversations and interactions between attendees.

The completed gallery provides a combination of formal programming and candid photographs that can be used for internal communications, marketing, social media and future events.

Elements E3 Conference

We've also photographed the Elements E3 Conference at The Westin Denver International Airport.

Our Denver Conference Photography focuses on documenting the complete conference experience rather than simply photographing the formal presentations.

Coverage can begin with registration and opening sessions and continue through speakers, breakout sessions, networking, receptions and other activities throughout the conference.

For multi-day events, we look for variety throughout the schedule so the final gallery communicates the scope of the conference while also highlighting the people and interactions that make the event valuable to attendees.

Telling the Complete Story of Your Conference

Strong conference photography documents much more than the person standing at the front of the room.

Whenever the schedule allows, we begin by photographing the venue, room setup, signage, sponsor branding and other details before attendees arrive.

Once the conference begins, our attention shifts between speakers, presentations, audience engagement, breakout sessions, networking and candid interactions.

We also look for wider environmental photographs that establish the scale of the event and tighter images that focus on individual interactions and reactions.

The completed gallery can provide your organization with photographs for:

• Websites

• Social media

• Public relations

• Internal communications

• Event recaps

• Sponsor recognition

• Sales and marketing

• Recruiting and company culture

• Promotion of future conferences

Conferences at The Westin Denver International Airport

The Westin's location makes it particularly well suited to conferences bringing together attendees from multiple cities.

Because the hotel is directly connected to Denver International Airport, attendees can walk from Jeppesen Terminal to the property without arranging additional transportation into downtown Denver.

Once onsite, the combination of large ballrooms and numerous breakout rooms allows organizations to keep general sessions, smaller programming, networking and accommodations within the same property.

Our Denver Conference Photography can include:

• Registration

• Opening sessions

• Keynote speakers

• General sessions

• Panel discussions

• Breakout sessions

• Workshops

• Networking

• Sponsor activities

• Receptions

• Awards

• Candid attendee interactions

Before the conference, we review your complete schedule and identify the speakers, sessions and activities that are most important to your organization.

General Sessions and Keynote Speakers

General sessions often provide some of the most important photographs from a conference.

Our coverage combines tighter photographs of individual speakers with wider environmental images that show the stage, audience, presentation screens and overall scale of the room.

We also look beyond the stage.

Audience reactions, questions and engagement help demonstrate that attendees are actively participating rather than simply sitting in a ballroom.

Coverage can include keynote speakers, executive presentations, panel discussions, moderators, audience questions, presentation screens, company branding and candid reactions.

Breakout Sessions and Workshops

With 15 breakout rooms, The Westin Denver International Airport can accommodate conferences with multiple sessions happening simultaneously.

During breakout sessions, our photography focuses on interaction and engagement.

We document speakers, but we also look for questions, discussions, collaborative activities and audience reactions that show attendees participating in the program.

When several important sessions happen at the same time, we can provide multiple photographers and coordinate coverage around your priorities.

Networking and Receptions

Some of the most valuable photographs from a conference happen between the formal sessions.

Our Denver Event Photography captures genuine conversations, introductions and interactions while also creating posed photographs of executives, speakers, sponsors and important groups when appropriate.

These photographs help communicate the relationships and community surrounding an event.

They can also be particularly effective for promoting future conferences because they show prospective attendees what the experience feels like beyond the educational programming.

Fly-In Corporate Meetings

The Westin Denver International Airport has an unusual advantage for organizations bringing executives, employees or clients together from multiple locations.

Attendees can fly into Denver and walk directly from the airport terminal to the hotel, reducing the transportation logistics associated with meetings at downtown or mountain venues.

That makes the property particularly practical for executive meetings, sales meetings, training programs and other gatherings where attendees may only be in Denver for a short period.

Our Meeting & Seminar Photography can be tailored to these smaller events, with photography concentrated around the most important portions of the schedule.

Event Branding and Sponsor Coverage

Conferences frequently involve sponsors and partners that require specific photography coverage.

Before the event, we can work with your team to identify priority sponsors, branded installations and other requirements.

Coverage can include:

• Sponsor signage

• Branded stages

• Registration areas

• Sponsor booths

• Product displays

• Attendee interactions

• Sponsor representatives

• Branded giveaways

• Presentation screens

• Environmental photographs showing sponsor presence

These photographs provide useful content for sponsor reporting, marketing and future partnership development.

Awards and Recognition

Corporate conferences frequently incorporate awards and employee recognition into the program.

Our Awards Ceremony Photography can document award recipients, presentations, handshakes, reactions, executive speeches and audience responses.

Before the program begins, we review the awards schedule so we're prepared for the sequence of presentations and know where the important moments are likely to happen.

When appropriate, we can also create posed photographs of recipients immediately after they leave the stage.

Professional Headshots at The Westin Denver International Airport

A Professional Headshot Station can provide an additional benefit for attendees at conferences and corporate meetings.

Our station can include:

• Professional studio lighting

• Guided posing

• Instant image review

• Individual online selection galleries

• One professionally retouched image per participant

• Delivery within five business days after selection

The station can operate during registration, conference breaks, networking periods or scheduled appointment times.

For larger conferences, a dedicated headshot team can operate independently while our event photographers continue documenting the rest of the program.

Event Video Production at The Westin Denver International Airport

Elevate can also provide Event Video Production alongside photography for conferences and corporate events at The Westin Denver International Airport.

Our photography and video teams work from the same schedule and priorities, allowing your organization to coordinate both services through one experienced team.

Video coverage can include:

• Event highlight films

• Keynote presentations

• Executive interviews

• Panel discussions

• Attendee testimonials

• Sponsor content

• Awards

• Social media video

For conferences bringing executives, clients or industry leaders together from around the country, the event can also provide an efficient opportunity to record interviews and thought-leadership content while everyone is already in one location.

Planning Photography at The Westin Denver International Airport

Good conference photography begins with understanding your schedule and priorities.

Before the event, we identify:

• Priority speakers and executives

• General sessions

• Panel discussions

• Breakout sessions

• Workshops

• Group photographs

• Networking opportunities

• Sponsor requirements

• Awards and recognition

• Headshot schedules

• Event details and branding

• Video requirements

• Sneak Peek priorities

For conferences with extensive breakout programming, we also review where each session is taking place so our photographers can move efficiently between rooms.

How Many Photographers Does Your Event Need?

One photographer may be sufficient for a smaller corporate meeting or single-track conference.

Two or more photographers often provide better coverage when:

• Multiple breakout sessions happen simultaneously

• General sessions and other activities overlap

• Executive or VIP activities occur separately

• Extensive sponsor coverage is required

• A headshot station is operating

• Several event spaces are being used

• Photography and video coverage overlap

• Expedited image delivery is required

We review your complete schedule before recommending a team so you receive appropriate coverage without unnecessary staffing.

Fast Event Photography Delivery

Standard event photography coverage includes high-resolution edited photographs, professional color and exposure correction, a downloadable online gallery and usage rights for your organization.

Up to 20 Sneak Peek images per day delivered within 24 hours of each day's event are included. Increased quantities and expedited turnaround options are also available.

Our standard final-gallery turnaround is five business days.
