Proposal for:

EST Studios: Red Carpet & Movie Premiere

Dear Shuyi,

It's our absolute pleasure to have the opportunity to partner with you and the EST Studios team to capture your upcoming red carpet and movie premiere on March 25, 2025. 

Daria Taylor Photography delivers high-quality, strategic visual assets. We take a different approach than most - to put it lightly, we don't "point and shoot." 

We understand that every event has the potential to achieve your strategic event goals: whether that's to highlight your most recent project, or create impactful marketing materials for future events. By combining years of creative agency experience, technical precision, and intentional collaboration with your goals top of mind, your images and video will work FOR you long after the last guest leaves.

Based on our original conversation and SOW, We've put together the following proposal to outline our objectives together and to ensure that you receive an ROI on your digital services. We look forward to collaborating with you and your team to create a full-service experience for all attendees and participating parties.

This Proposal EXPIRES IN

Why DOES this PROPOSAL expire?

Due to the high volume of inquiries we receive, we cannot guarantee dates until your booking proposal is complete.  

Please note that while your pricing is guaranteed for the duration of your live link, your date is not reserved until booking has been completed, and is subject to fill even before your link expires.

OUTLINING our OBJECTIVES TOGETHER

Let our Images Do the Selling for You

Use our event photos across your various marketing channels—social media, website, newsletters, LinkedIn, etc.—to boost engagement with your brand/organization. Relevant, high quality, eye-catching images drive more interactions online. And online interactions=SALES.

Showcase your branding and culture/products in a fun environment, leading viewers to associate your brand with good vibes. 

Create Real Connections Through Real Moments

Overly posed, staged photos are so 2006. Consumers are savvier than ever, and they’re looking for authenticity to cut through the noise. Trust us to capture event imagery that showcases the real moments of joy, connection, and learning that unfold throughout your event–moments you can feel. Let our photos transport your client/donor/sponsor/audience back to your event, and make sure they mark their calendars for next year. 

Build Goodwill

Show Off Your Wins. High-quality images of successful events shout, “We know what we’re doing!” and build trust with potential clients.

Bonus points: sharing elevated professional event photos with your partners and attendees delivers something tangible they can remember you by, and is a next-level gesture that keeps them coming back for more.

More organic shares=more interactions=more sales=more money in your pocket.


Give Your Brand a Facelift

Stay current! Consumers today are savvier than ever and are drawn to brands that stay relevant. Stunning photos give your brand a polished, professional, and current look that impresses clients and partners right out of the gate. Photos are the first impression clients/partners/donors have of your brand–make it a good one. 

Fuel Lead Generation/Build your Pipeline

Keep the Energy High. Share event photos in follow-ups or newsletters to keep the excitement alive and drive more leads.

Whether your event happened yesterday or 2 years ago, let’s keep your photos working for you long after your last guest leaves. 


Develop Loyal Relationships with Sponsors

Highlight your sponsors in action and in branding, giving them the exposure they crave, making them want to partner with you again and again. Offering sponsors high-quality images as part of their participation benefits increases the value of your relationship with them.

Show your Team (Literally, in Photos) your Appreciation

Highlighting employees in action boosts morale and shows them how much you value their hard work. Photos of team-bonding moments remind everyone why they love working together, building a stronger community.

Celebrate the diversity of your team and use this as an opportunity to bring diverse perspectives, thoughts, and experiences together. We’ll capture it with skin tone accuracy in mind to make sure everyone feels seen and looks like their best self. 


Create Real-Time Social Proof

Capitalize on the FOMO Factor: Sharing event photos online makes others wish they were there, boosting your brand’s appeal and drawing in new attendees for future events.

A picture is worth a thousand words—use powerful images as visual testimonials that speak volumes about your event’s success. What do you want your photos to say?

Plan for Future Wins

Our images can be taken out of the context of this specific event to act as evergreen image assets for you to pepper in throughout the year. Whether it’s internal decks, fundraising presentations, or social media posts, we’re keeping your annual gameplan top of mind.

 By utilizing your images in multiple ways and in multiple places, you can make your investment work FOR you-over and over again. 



                  — Let’s make it count.

We understand the amount of time and care that goes into planning your event.

Unlike “churn and burn” studios, we do not provide a one-size-fits-all approach. 

DTP offers value as a strategic event partner who will work with you to ensure that the investment you put in comes aaaall the way back (and then some)

Images run through AI software for speed (and sloppiness).

DTP understands that you’re entrusting a human (not a bot) to carefully cull through every raw image file captured to ensure nothing is missed.


Image-culling

Outsourced to AI, or online editing factories overseas for fast and cheap batch edits. 

Imagine receiving a gallery of batch edited images where everyone has the exact same skin tone. DEI, anyone?

DTP understands that you’re investing in hand edited, retouched, consistent image quality with care taken to preserve the full spectrum of skin tones in the human race. 

Additionally, we remove exit signs and other distracting elements that draw attention away from your vision & branding.

The most “impactful” event recap images in your inbox within 24 hours of the close of event for real-time social media sharing and thank you emails to event partners & guests. 

Attention spans move fast–we move faster.

Image Previews
