We make a lot of photo folders for annual golf events. Those events are awesome for vendors because they are a recurring event: book them once, and you can book them every year. Are you booking these events?
If you’re an event photographer or photo booth owner, you already work hard enough. Here are some tips and ideas for how to break into the golf event market—and easily book those annual events.
These are the golf event clients you should look for
Golf tournaments aren’t just for the pros: park districts, country clubs, schools, alumni associations, business groups, industry associations, and more.
Find their event schedule; if there is a golf event listed, reach out to see if they are interested in booking your photo booth.

What kind of photos do you take at golf events?
The event planners might have specific ideas on what kind of golf tournament pictures are best, but here are some of the standard photos taken at golf events:
- Foursome photos. This is the most popular golf event photo. Take a picture of each team at the first hole, before the tournament begins. Some event planners might want photos taken at select sponsor holes.
- Golfer portraits. For a memorable keepsake or gift, take a formal, posed portrait on the course.
- Action shots. Capture them on the backswing or in the sandpit for some shots with great movement.
- After-party pictures. Many tournaments host dinner, drinks, or an award ceremony after the event. Take group photos or set up a location to take group photos (like a photo booth).
