Parties and events: IRESS end-of-year company Christmas party

by Matt Hrkac | Dec 8, 2024 | Events, Parties

We were hired by IRESS Limited, a Melbourne based ASX:200 listed technology company (though it has operations across the world) that provides software for the financial services industry, to photograph its end-of-year, James Bond themed, company Christmas Party.

We sussed the company's socials and online presence and it's employees have quite a history of getting up to some fun shenanigans that even the management joins in on: from the Melbourne Cup and even past end of year work break ups. Generally not the typical after work get together and drinks with workmates. In short, this is a company that tends to up the 'fun factor' with its workplace social gatherings.

The event was hosted at the ALTO Event Space, in the Melbourne CBD - a warehouse style venue, featuring high sealings, wide open windows for natural light (though when we were there, it was a rather driery and grey Melbourne early summer late afternoon/early evening), concrete floors and a large outdoor terrace. From a photographer's perspective, it worked well.

Have an event coming up? We provide event photography services in Melbourne and beyond.

For the editing, we went with warm, soft tones, which was an excellent match with the lighting and the golden hues throughout the venue.

A brave man, dressing up in full winter gear on a warm, humid, late summer afternoon. We've got to admire his commitment!

It's an election year! We were recently hired to shoot a series of team headshots for Greens candidates Emilie Flynn, for the seat of Geelong; and Jesse Holden, for the seat of Polwarth.

These images are to be used for flyers as well as for media.

With the Victorian State Election coming up coming up in November this year, we're making our services available to any community oriented candidate whose values align with our own. These services can include candidate headshots at a location in your electorate, photography and/or video coverage of campaign launches or filming of campaign related content. Get in contact to enquire further.

Note: we reserve the right to decline working with any candidate who we see is harmful or otherwise is antithesis to our values.
