I was commissioned by Snook Events to capture a spectacular Christmas party they’d planned and produced in The Tanks in Tate Modern for a corporate client.
I got there in time to see the iconic venue completely transformed with dramatic lighting that brought the bars, dining areas, serving stations, and a full stage and DJ booth to life. And once guests had all arrived down the sweeping spiral staircase they were treated to a close-up magician, roaming saxophonist, neon dancers, an acrobatic performance suspended from the ceiling, plus DJ Dan from Euphonica and the incredible Aston Band keeping the dancefloor packed from start to finish.
The brief: to showcase all the details that go into a spectacular Snook Events party, from venue setup all the way through to the party in full swing. I’m looking for wide shots showing the transformation of the space, details of the bespoke cocktails and bars, the range of entertainments and catering, and what it looks and feels like when the guests arrive and the party kicks off.
The shoot & delivery: five hours from setup until midway through the party. Shot on two cameras and a range of lenses, and delivery in full within 2 business days, licensed for unlimited PR use so that Snook Events can showcase their work on their website, social media, national press, etc.
