Be Inspired with Imperial

Been a busy time the last quarter of the month and not had much time to report back with what’s been going on. Alternative was once again involved with the autumn conference for the European business area of the group and held the event as last year at the Hilton Heathrow T5.

The conference was at a fast moving pace wanting to include as much detail and information as possible in the one day event. We started at prompt half past nine and went virtually straight through until six that evening only stopping for short coffee refreshments and a swift lunch break.

During the conference there was a schedule of eighteen presenters that I had to capture on the stage. That’s quite a lot of camera clicks using a mono pod so I was able to move around as quietly as possible. Also using quiet shutter on my D4! I was working for my usual client but was supplying images on the day to a new employee of the group who was handling the marketing area of the conference. This I made more easy for him to handle because I downloaded and sorted the images into the categories as and when it all happened.

As in Imperial fashion the event would not be complete without the evening function of a grand spread of various foods of the world, all in one place, so whatever your fancy it would be there, and to complete the evening there was a celebration with awards held by the CEO Alison Cooper.

Hilton T5 Conference

Alternative Images has recently been working at the Hilton Hotel T5 Heathrow for a corporate company who invited guests from overseas for the two day event. This hotel is well situated for the delegates to attend being within easy reach of the airport. Though the conference meeting was a fully packed schedule, as always the host company made some light hearted activities within the day using a set of jenga to bring some breaks to the business that was being discussed.

Who would make it fall first? After most of the delegates had their turn. It stood all day!

The evening was a fun affair with plenty of drinking and eating. The food on offer was a selection of different buffet areas where you could go and try from Indian to Italian dishes at leisure. There was a competition throughout the event and in the later part of the evening an awards ceremony took place that was a relaxed affair, good job it was due to the merriment by that stage!

UKHO Commercial Conference 2014, London

Alternative Images corporate photography was asked to cover the 2014 conference at the Millennium Gloucester Hotel, Kensington again this year for The United Kingdom Hydrographic Office. The conference was about the ever increasing database of digital information to be used alongside the traditional use of paper maps in navigating ships around the world and the many ports they have to visit.

The conference was attended by approximately ninety people who have a great interest in the information discussed by UKHO during the day. Alternative Images covered all the morning presenters’ shots and organised before the afternoon session a group photograph on stage of the attendees where they will each receive a print copy.

Together, the ADMIRALTY Vector Chart Service and ADMIRALTY Raster Chart Service give you easy access to the world’s widest suite of digital charts. Ideal for both planning and navigation, they can help simplify operational tasks and improve situational awareness.

AVCS provides the widest official digital chart coverage available, allowing ships to navigate to 4,000 of the busiest ports in the world. When this coverage is used alongside ARCS, bridge crews can quickly identify additional information – such as dredged depths and berth names – that can help to improve efficiency and safety on the bridge. This combination of wide coverage, familiarity and ease of use gives you the most trusted digital chart service for ships trading internationally.

Peter Austin of Alternative Images Photography has worked with this client over many years being an established business in conference photography and video production.
