The Work That Happens Away From the Desk
Away Days, Workshops & ERG Events
Not everything important happens in the office. Some of the most significant moments in a company’s calendar take place in a hired venue on the outskirts of somewhere, with bad coffee and a surprisingly good facilitator, where a team actually figures out how to work together properly. Those moments are worth documenting.
Away days and corporate workshops occupy an interesting space photographically. The brief is usually twofold — capture the event for internal records and leadership reporting, and produce images that communicate company culture outward. Both require the same thing: a photographer who can move through a room without disrupting what’s happening in it, and who understands that the best frames are usually the ones caught between the scheduled agenda items.
The wide establishing shot of a room in session. The small group working something out at a flip chart. The moment after a presentation when the room is reacting honestly. The lunch break, which is frequently where the actual work gets done. These are the images that tell a true story about how a company functions when it’s trying to be its best version of itself.
Employee Resource Groups deserve particular attention here. ERG events — whether that’s a panel discussion, a celebration, a awareness day, or a community gathering — are increasingly central to how progressive organisations demonstrate their values in practice rather than just in policy. Photography that captures these moments with care, authenticity, and genuine respect for what the group represents is a different brief to a standard corporate shoot. It requires some sensitivity, a bit of preparation, and a photographer who understands what’s actually at stake in the room.
Done well, ERG photography produces images that mean something to the people in them. That carry weight internally as evidence of a culture that takes inclusion seriously. And that communicate externally to candidates, clients, and partners that this is an organisation that shows up for its people in concrete ways rather than aspirational ones.
Away days are an investment. The photography should reflect that — something to show the board, share with the team, and put in the next culture deck with genuine pride rather than mild embarrassment.
