"Pellier Noir" style, a unique approach to Event Photography - presented by Paul Rogers

Take a look at how everyone else is doing it and then do exactly the opposite. Perhaps some would argue a rather risky approach but nevertheless that is also exactly what Paul Rogers has done!

In Paul's own words, "Pellier Noir" is the ultimate in High Class Executive Social Event Photography. In 2007 Pellier Event Photography created the Pellier Noir style which is now widely revered throughout the Event Photography world.

Paul has photographed some of the most glamorous and top Charity Balls and Gala Dinners in the UK. Venues include Manchester United, Hilton Park Lane, The Dorchester, The Waldorf Hotel, The Grosvenor House and many more.

Paul has broken away from the bonds of traditional high key "Venture" type Event Photography and has given us something new and unique to think about.

Be sure not to miss Paul's exciting 50 minute presentation on "Noir".

It’s no wonder then that Dave’s extremely popular presentation will also cover some of the secrets toward marketing success and maximizing turnover and sales at school proms and other events in general.
