A diplomatic photographer in Geneva works with permanent missions, international organisations and institutions to document official meetings, conferences and protocol ceremonies. Discretion, confidentiality and respect for the programme guide every assignment.

Photography that respects protocol

Required images usually include speeches, flags, document signings, official exchanges, delegations and venue views. The photographer follows seating arrangements, security instructions and any periods during which movement or flash photography is restricted.

PhotographeGenève has covered UNEP conferences, INC5 VIP sequences and meetings for international organisations. Familiarity with Geneva’s institutional venues supports preparation but never replaces the accreditation required for each assignment.

Confidentiality and publication

Publication rules are agreed before the event. Files are supplied only to the designated contact and are not published by PhotographeGenève without written permission. Restricted areas, sensitive participants and embargo periods can all be included in the brief.

A same-day press selection can be prepared when the image count and delivery time are agreed in advance.

Information required before the assignment

Send the programme, priority speaker list, protocol rules, accessible areas and security contact. Also specify the event language, required group photographs and intended communication channels.

When the assignment combines photography and interviews, our video reportage Geneva service can be coordinated through the same production team.

Prices and delivery

A short reception can be covered with the two-hour package at CHF 480 excl. tax. Four and eight-hour packages cost CHF 930 and CHF 1,600. Basic retouching, agreed communication usage rights and seven-day delivery are included.

Express delivery costs CHF 150. Special post-production or an assignment requiring several photographers is quoted from the programme.
