Professional event photography for B2B companies that want more than just a few snapshots.

Intro — Why a dedicated 2026 page?

Because 2026 isn't a normal year.
After a couple of years of caution, Vienna companies are planning big again. Conferences, product launches, anniversaries, employee events - calendars are filling fast. And if you want to be visible in 2026, you need images that work throughout the year.

This page covers everything you need to know about professional event photography in Vienna for 2026: pricing, process, booking, availability. No hidden costs. No "price on request" games.

Why 2026 companies choose Seirer Photography

Transparent pricing instead of "on request"

You see prices before contacting me. No hidden hourly rates, no retroactive surcharges. B2B relationships start with honesty — not with a sales pitch.

What clients say about past event shoots

Michael did an excellent job covering a recent corporate event for us in Vienna. Professional throughout, responsive to our needs, and the final images captured exactly the atmosphere we wanted to convey.
— Ben Lovell, Legalease Ltd.

Fast delivery, not fast-and-sloppy

48 hours to final gallery. Not 48 hours of "done"-rendered raw files, but curated, fully edited images you can use immediately for marketing.

Michael consistently delivers exceptional photos — often same-day. For an international tech company running events in Vienna, that speed plus quality combination is genuinely rare.
— Marcel Zehner, CTO, itnetX

Frequently asked questions about 2026 event photography

How early should I book?

For 2026, I recommend booking 8-12 weeks in advance. Popular dates (April-June, September, October) are often reserved 4+ months ahead. Short-notice inquiries (under 2 weeks) are possible but not guaranteed.

Are the images tax-deductible?

Yes — event photography for companies is fully deductible as marketing and documentation expense in Austria. You receive an invoice with itemized VAT for your accounting.

What usage rights do I get?

Unlimited time and geographic usage for all company purposes: website, social media, print, presentations, internal communications. The images become a permanent part of your brand library.

The only restriction: no resale of the images (no selling to third parties).

Do you also shoot outside Vienna?

Yes — across Austria and internationally. Travel and accommodation are transparently billed based on actual cost (and communicated upfront).

Can you also produce video?

No, but I work with video partners in Vienna whom I can refer. Parallel production at the same event is straightforward.

What about GDPR and consent forms?

I strictly follow GDPR. For events with public character (keynotes, large conferences), standard rules apply. For internal events, we discuss during briefing what consent forms are needed.
