What we do

What we get hired for.

01 · Corporate Events

We work the whole room.

A call before the date, a shot list built off your run-of-show, and someone on the podium while someone else is on the room. Speakers, sponsors, the details you paid for, and the moments between them nobody scheduled.

  • Travel included
  • New-hire matching

03 · Film & Recap

A recap worth sending twice.

Shot on the same run-of-show as the photography, by the same team, then cut to length in the edit. Sized for the feed, the newsletter, and next year’s ticket page, not a ten minute edit nobody finishes.

  • Recap films
  • Interviews
  • Donor appeals
  • Sponsor reels

Quoted per project. Delivery timeline agreed up front with your comms team.

Film

The recap they actually share.

Shot on the same run-of-show as the stills, by the same team, so the film and the photographs tell one story.

Who you’re hiring

I’m the one holding the camera.

I’m David Hill, owner and lead creative at Soul Solid Visuals.

16+Years behind the camera
1,000+Events photographed

I picked up a camera as a teenager and never really put it down. What started as a way to make the picture in my head into something I could hold turned into the work I have built a company around.

That same instinct is now pointed at a different kind of room: galas, summits, civic mornings, and the days a whole team gets photographed before nine. When you hire Soul Solid Visuals, you get me on the floor, not a subcontractor sent in my place.

Someone spent a year planning that night. It happens once, and then it’s over, and what’s left is what we shot. That’s the part I take seriously.

Never a one-camera night.

Larger events run with a second shooter and someone on film, so nothing important happens behind us while we’re looking the other way. You still get one point of contact and one consistent look, not two crews working around each other.

Questions

Common
questions.

Still unanswered? Write to us. We reply within one business day.

What does event coverage cost?
Every event is quoted individually, because a two-hour ribbon cutting and a four-hundred-guest gala with a video crew are not the same job. Tell us the date, the venue, the run-of-show and what you need the images for, and we will send a scoped quote, usually within one business day.
How far in advance should we book?
Earlier is better, particularly for the autumn and spring gala seasons when dates go quickly. That said, we do take late bookings when the calendar allows. If your date is close, it is still worth asking.
How quickly do we get the photographs?
The full edited gallery arrives within five business days. If your communications team needs a handful of images sooner, tell us up front and we will agree a rush timeline in the quote.
Can you do photo and video at the same event?
Yes, and it is usually the better answer. One team covering both means the stills and the film tell the same story, and there is one point of contact on the night rather than two crews working around each other.
Do we own the images?
You receive full usage rights for your organization: website, social, press, annual report, donor decks and internal communications.
Do you travel outside Boston?
Yes. Greater Boston is home, and we regularly work across Massachusetts and New England. Travel beyond the Greater Boston area is quoted separately.
