Are you planning an upscale gala? An important fund raiser or fashion show?
One of the most important elements for large swanky events is the “step and repeat”, and sadly it’s often forgotten.
You can see them in the background of celebrity photos, fashion shows, and awards shows and might commonly refer to them as the photo backdrops. They are a great way to showcase the event name, date, and important high paying sponsors.
The term “step and repeat” originates from the red carpet – when event attendees walk and pose for photographers. These photo backdrops serve many purposes. First, they hide unsightly backgrounds while providing a specified area for photographs to be taken.
If you’ve ever been to an event with a step and repeat, you’ll know how the process goes. For high profile events, they offer a designated space for photographers to gather. Often the lighting in these spaces will be brighter and more appropriate for glamorous photos to be taken. They also often act as a hub for attendees to gather and show off their evening attire.
Step and Repeats provide an opportunity to showcase the highest paying sponsors as well as the name of the event. And while it might seem like a large investment to make at the time, photos last a lifetime.
They are plastered all over social media, and they are guaranteed to be seen for years. It’s a form of advertising that keeps paying for itself over and over again.
