It is great news that the Labour movement returns its yearly gathering to the city. The Labour Conference is one of the largest political gatherings in Europe, with last years Conference having over 17,000 attendees. So a great boost to the hospitality sector for the city and reinforces its role as a leading conference and event host destination in the UK.
I have been a photographer member of the NUJ - The National Union of Journalists - since 2010 and hold a current UK Press Card. I am based in Wavertree, central Liverpool and work across Merseyside and the North West of England. Ideally placed for jobs and commissions at the forthcoming Labour Party Annual Conference 2024 in Liverpool taking place between Sunday 22 and Wednesday 25 September 2024.
The Annual Conference venues are the ACC Liverpool, Exhibition Centre Liverpool (ECL) and the Pullman Hotel.
In addition to the main programme, there is a large and varied fringe program of meetings , taking place in venues around the city, covering topics on all policy areas. Fringe events take place throughout the day, and run late into the evening following main hall closing. I've worked in most venues across the city, so if you are organising something, I am more than happy to help with local knowledge and advice. And obviously come and take some fire photographs of your event !
I hold comprehensive professional photographers indemnity & public liability insurance. So we are both covered if a visitor trips on my camera bag, or some other accident !
And of course, I have loads of experience working with trade unions, including the RMT, Unison and Unite, as well as with the TUC on a visit to Liverpool to the Landrover / Jaguar plant.
Also I have worked with Royal visits to Merseyside and at the G7 Summit in Liverpool in December 2021.
I am listed on the NUJ Freelance Directory as a North West freelance photographer. More details here - http://www.freelancedirectory.org/user.php?user=7091. So obviously if you have something coming up at Conference or beyond, that needs a card carrying, experienced professional photographer, get in touch.
It is usually a busy time for me, I have had a lot of inquires and already a few firm bookings, so hurry and drop me a message and lets talk.

A series of pictures in and around Wavertree Sports Park. A little personal project from earlier in the year.
Hit the ground running in September with absolutely loads of Liverpool photography commissions and super busy with events related to the Labour Party Conference 2024
In this post I outline 3 reasons why you should hire a professional conference photographer in Liverpool and why that should be me.
"Just wanted to drop you a line to say thank-you so much for the brilliant job you did for us in Bootle barracks the other week - we hit the Echo and also the Plymouth Daily (where we have an interest in veterans services) so we were dead chuffed. Excellent Public Relations / Press style photography."
