IGPP Conference at Etihad Stadium: A Day of Insight and Innovation

Last year, we had the incredible opportunity to shoot the IGPP (Institute of Government & Public Policy) Conference at the iconic Etihad Stadium in Manchester. The event brought together thought leaders, policymakers, and industry professionals for a day of inspiring discussions, networking, and cutting-edge exhibitions. It was a fantastic blend of knowledge-sharing and innovation, all set against the backdrop of one of the UK’s most famous stadiums.

The conference was packed with insightful keynote speeches, engaging panel discussions, and plenty of opportunities for professionals to connect. Throughout the day, a range of expert speakers took to the stage to discuss critical issues affecting governance, public policy, and industry trends. Their insights sparked meaningful conversations, leaving attendees with valuable takeaways and fresh perspectives on the future of public policy and governance.

As conference photographers in Manchester, our goal is to encapsulate the energy and dynamism of the day. From candid networking moments to impactful speaker presentations, every shot tells a story. The grand setting of the Etihad Stadium added an extra layer of prestige to the images, creating a visually striking contrast between the modern conference setup and the historic venue.

The lighting, the buzz of conversations, and the engaged expressions of attendees all made for compelling imagery. One of the highlights was capturing the passion of the speakers as they delivered thought-provoking talks—each frame telling a story of influence and inspiration.

MONY Group Summer Party at DieCast Manchester

Last summer, we had the incredible opportunity to photograph the MONY Group Summer Party at DieCast Manchester, a vibrant day event packed with live entertainment, unique experiences, and an electric atmosphere. As an event photographer, capturing the essence of a corporate summer party like this is all about energy, storytelling, and those unforgettable candid moments.

A Day Full of Entertainment

The venue was buzzing with excitement as guests enjoyed an amazing lineup of live bands, face painting, and even a rock band performance that had the crowd on their feet. Every corner of the venue had something happening, making it a dream setting for event photography—from dynamic performance shots to candid reactions of guests soaking in the fun.

The Challenges of Summer Event Photography

Shooting an outdoor day party in natural light comes with its own set of challenges. Harsh midday sun, moving performers, and fast-paced action required quick adjustments in exposure, composition, and shutter speed to capture crisp, well-lit shots. Balancing vibrant event aesthetics with natural candid moments ensured the final gallery truly reflected the atmosphere of the day.

Why Corporate Event Photography Matters

Events like these showcase a company’s culture and bring employees together in a fun, relaxed setting. High-quality corporate event photography is essential for capturing these moments—not just for memories, but also for branding, marketing, and social media engagement.

Natural Corporate Headshot Photography in Manchester

In today's business world, having a professional and polished image is crucial. Whether you're creating a personal brand or representing a company, your headshot is often the first impression you make on potential clients, colleagues, and employers. Natural corporate headshots are a popular trend that has been gaining popularity in recent years, and for good reason.

Here at Tangerine Photography, we specialise in capturing natural and authentic headshots that showcase the unique personalities and professionalism of individuals and teams.

Our natural corporate headshots are photographs that capture the essence of who you are as an individual. They convey a sense of approachability, warmth, and authenticity, while also maintaining a level of professionalism. Unlike traditional corporate headshots, which are often stiff and formal, natural headshots aim to capture a more relaxed and natural look, allowing you to showcase your personality and character.

Additionally, natural headshots are more versatile than traditional headshots, allowing you to use them in a variety of contexts. Whether you're creating a personal brand on social media, updating your company's website, or appearing in print or online publications, a natural headshot can be used across a range of mediums.

SHEIN X Klarna – UK Bus Tour 2023

We have had the pleasure of shooting promotional events for our client, Klarna since early 2019. Continuing our relationship, in September, we photographed Klarna’s Mini UK tour, documenting their collaborative PR campaign with the online retail giant, Shein.

 Launching the campaign in London Spitalfields Markets, before moving onto Birmingham’s Bull Ring and finally stopping in Manchester’s Spinningfields, Klarna’s fully immersive, In Pink We Trust double decker bus, offered a chance to win tech and beauty products with their fun, interactive games. These fully interactive games included spin the wheel, and the grabber, and were a huge hit with all the visitors.

As well as the fully interactive games, Klarna also provided visitors with pampering services (manicures and hair styling sessions) in their Glam-Stop.

Throughout this PR campaign, we provided corporate and PR photography, capturing natural and candid interactions of the public with the bus. We delivered highlight images of each location every day on site for instant press and social releases.

Following up last year’s meet up, Hotel Designs took over YOTEL Manchester earlier this month to host their annual meetup. This networking event welcomed the Hotel Designs community including interior designers, architects, hoteliers, and industry suppliers from around the north.

The highlight of the evening was an immersive panel discussion on ‘blurring the boundaries between spaces.’ The panel discussion was split into three sections in the venue, enabling the panellists to physically move around the venue as they discussed the topic.

We were once again commissioned by Hotel Designs to capture the evening as it unfolded, using our renowned candid photography style.

Cowgils North West Homebuilder of the Year Awards at Albert Hall, Manchester

For the second year running, we were back at the stunning Albert Hall in Manchester to capture Cowgil’s Homebuilder of the year awards.  

This awards evening celebrates and acknowledges the achievements of small to medium sized home builders in the North West that help to improve communities and meet our growing need for new homes.

In contrast to the traditional black tie and dinner awards ceremonies we are familiar with, the theme for Cowgil’s Homebuilder of the year awards was a festival. This unique theme with top class entertainment and music throughout the evening, created a more casual and exciting approach to the awards ceremony.

There was also a charitable cause for the event; all proceeds made on the evenings went directly to NSPCC Charity.


To capture the evening, we had two photographers on board for this event. This enabled us to setup our professional lighting studio for the step and repeat photographs against the sponsored backdrop throughout the event, whilst simultaneously capturing details and candid shots throughout the evening.

Victoria’s 30th Birthday Party at Alberts Standish

Birthdays are special occasions that we all look forward to, whether it's our own or someone else's. As the years go by, we realize how important it is to capture these moments and create memories that we can cherish for years to come. That's why birthday party photography is so important. It captures the joy, excitement, and love of the celebration, and allows us to relive those moments even after the party is over.

Last month, we had the pleasure of capturing Victoria’s 30th birthday celebrations at Alberts Standish. Victoria wanted to capture the mood of the party, attended by her closest friends and family.

We captured natural and candid photos throughout the evening. To minimise our disruption to the flow of the party, we only took a handful of posed photos as per Victoria’s request.

Our photos captured the essence of Victoria’s special evening and we created memories that will last a lifetime. For us, each event is about telling a story through images, capturing the emotions and the moments that make a celebration unique and memorable
