Mark Campbell Productions — Frequently Asked Questions

Question 1

How quickly will we receive photos after our event?

Accepted Answer

Your full edited gallery is delivered within one week of your event date — every frame, print-ready and download-ready. For clients who need content faster, MCP offers a same-day conference photography highlight add-on: social-ready hero shots delivered while your event is still running, before your attendees leave the building. Available for Chicago and Milwaukee events and national conferences.

Question 2

What types of corporate events do you photograph?

Accepted Answer

MCP covers the full spectrum: conferences, trade shows, product launches, award ceremonies, galas, annual meetings, town halls, fundraisers, brand activations, and executive retreats throughout Chicago, Milwaukee, and nationally. On-site headshot stations, general session recording, and same-day social media content packages are also available.

Question 3

Can we get photography and video from the same team?

Accepted Answer

Yes. MCP's integrated Chicago and Milwaukee corporate videographer and photography team operates under one brief, one creative direction, and one point of contact. You get consistent visual style across every deliverable — stills, highlight reels, brand films, and social cuts — without managing two separate vendors.

Question 4

Can we get same-day edited photos for social media during our event?

Accepted Answer

Yes. MCP's real-time delivery workflow delivers social-ready hero shots while the event is still running — culled and polished by our on-site editor and delivered to your phone, Slack, or email before speakers leave the stage. Available for Chicago, Milwaukee, and national events.

Question 5

Do you set up on-site headshot stations at conferences?

Accepted Answer

Yes. MCP's on-site headshot lounge is one of the most popular conference add-ons. Since every executive is already in one place, we set up professional lighting and capture portraits for the entire team — no separate shoot, no rescheduling. We have photographed 250+ executive headshots in a single two-day Chicago conference, with instant delivery available.

Question 6

What is included in a conference photography package?

Accepted Answer

MCP's Conference Platinum package — our most comprehensive offering for Chicago and Milwaukee conferences — includes full photojournalistic event coverage, produced executive interviews, on-site headshots, general session video recording, a 1-2 minute website video, social cuts in 15, 30, and 60 second formats, and same-day image delivery. Custom packages are available for any event size or scope.

Question 7

Do you cover corporate events outside Chicago and Milwaukee?

Accepted Answer

Yes. While Chicago and Milwaukee are MCP's primary markets, we travel nationally for conferences, trade shows, and corporate events. We have covered events across the country for clients including Oracle, Microsoft, and Vanguard.

Question 8

Are you insured to work at large-scale venues in Chicago and Milwaukee?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Mark Campbell Productions carries full commercial general liability insurance. A Certificate of Insurance naming your venue or organization as an additional insured is available upon request — a standard requirement at major venues including McCormick Place, Navy Pier, and hotel properties throughout Chicago and Milwaukee.

Question 9

How do speakers and attendees receive their photos?

Accepted Answer

All images are delivered via a private, password-protected online gallery — shareable by link and downloadable in high resolution. For larger conferences, separate collections are created for speakers, sponsors, and breakout sessions. For headshot stations, attendees receive individual portraits via email or text immediately after their session. Full print rights included for all corporate and marketing use.
