From keynote speeches and panel discussions to networking sessions and exhibitions, decoy specialises in capturing the highlights that define your conference. Based in the North West as an experienced conference photographer in Manchester, we work with businesses, organisations, and institutions across the UK to deliver photography that brings your event to life.

Rated 5 stars on Google based on over 100+ reviews
Consistently professional with excellent results.
We chose Decoy Media to cover a one-week conference and exhibition event and were very pleased with the results. The photographer, Alex, was very professional, very easy to work with, and delivered exactly what was required.
High-quality photography and outstanding service.
Decoy Media delivered clear, high-quality coverage of the Epilepsy Research Institute Conference in Manchester last week. The professional and well-composed shots captured the event really well. Alex was a pleasure to work with and we will definitely look to use Decoy Media for future events.
Fantastic experience — efficient and easy to work with.
We had a fantastic experience with Alex at Decoy Media when he helped us with photography at a recent conference. He was incredibly proactive and really understood the brief well. With what was an incredibly hectic time for the team, he even suggested a team photo which we would have forgotten to think about were it not for him. The end results are fantastic!
