DALLAS EVENT PHOTOGRAPHER
Hi, I’m Daniel Motta, your personal event photographer in Dallas, adding a touch of sparkle to conferences, meet-ups, and special occasions.
I love to capture the magic of your new big occasion so you remember it forever. I help you relive every moment, whether laughter or applause, making you look back and ask in years to come, “Did that really happen?”
I specialize in multiple event types, from galas to trade shows. I can even shoot your awards dinners but not weddings–that’s a whole different thing.
For years, clients have enjoyed my Dallas event photography work. I am passionate about telling your story and blending professionalism with a laid-back vibe.
So, let’s look at what I do in detail.
Why HIRE A PROFESSIONAL EVENT PHOTOGRAPHER?
That’s a high-IQ question; I'm glad you asked.
As a business, organization, or event manager, you know events are fleeting and are over as soon as they start. Because of this, you need someone on site, there and then, who can capture the magic of the moment.
As an experienced Dallas event photographer, I help businesses, nonprofits, and brands capture their events for:
- Social media campaigns
- Websites and press releases
- Internal documentation
- Marketing and PR assets
- Stakeholder reports
Ultimately, I capture the moments that make your events special. My eyes are everywhere.
Daniel is professional, expert, and very easy to work with. I’m luckily I stumbled upon him as I can’t imagine other photographers are as thorough and knowledgeable as he is. If you’re reading this, stop your search now and book a time with Daniel.
EVENT TYPES I SPECIALIZE IN
I can photograph just about any event you want to throw at me (well, except weddings). I have a lot of experience in Dallas, helping you make the occasion special.
AWARD CEREMONIES & GALAS
For example, I can photograph galas and fundraisers. I capture the glitz and the speeches while creating warm and fuzzy memories of the night.
Award dinners also fall into this category. I capture the proud smiles of your team and the cheers from the crowd as they accept their nominations.
Conferences, Seminars & Keynotes
Conferences and seminars are also part of my wheelhouse. I photograph keynotes, networking, and panels, documenting it in a narrative that explains what really happened on the day.
Trade Shows & Product Launches
I can help with other events, too, like trade shows and expos, corporate events, team holidays, product launches, and charity drives. Whether you are unveiling something new, having fun as a group, or selling to the public, I’m there to freeze moments in time. Formal or laid-back, big or small, I can help.
Corporate Meetings, Team Retreats & Training Days
From candid team bonding moments to formal speaker photos, I make your internal events feel just as important as your public ones.

Using a high-end Nippon DS40 dye-sublimation printer paired with Darkroom software, I can capture and print stunning 5x7 photos live at your event.

How Event Photography With Me Works
Here’s the deal: I’m a bit different from the average event photographer in Dallas. I don’t just show up and mash the buttons on my DSLR. Instead, I take a thoughtful approach.
We start by discussing your event, who’s coming, and the shots you need. This conversation lets me build my plan, helping me understand what you want.
Next, I prepare. Sometimes, I will check the venue ahead of the big day, planning my angles of attack and ensuring the lighting is sufficient.
Then, on the day I shoot. I get there early with your management team, ready to roll. During proceedings, I’m like a ninja, blurring into the background so you can get on with business.
I can shoot “action shots” as they happen or arrange more formal group photos–you decide.
Finally, after the event, I polish your photos, editing them to perfection while keeping their meaning. I ensure they are crisp and clean, removing the guy in the background who always seems to be blinking.
Why Work With Me?
Hopefully, by now, you have a clearer picture of why working with me makes sense. But if not, this next section should convince you 100%.
I start with my appearance. I’m always professionally dressed, in keeping with the tone of your event. I avoid the boho or unkempt look of many photographers, allowing me to fit into scenes but also blend into the background, putting the focus squarely on you.
Many clients comment on how professional I look, whether it’s a black tie event, a business dinner, or something in between. Simply tell me the nature of the occasion.
