Your event isn’t just a gathering — it’s a reflection of your mission in motion.

Whether you’re hosting a leadership summit, advocacy event, fundraiser, or community convening, you deserve photography that captures the heart of the experience, not just who stood at the podium.

We create nonprofit event photography that helps you:

  • Show the real impact of your work

  • Communicate value to funders and stakeholders

  • Build trust with your community

  • Share meaningful moments across reports, social media, and marketing

Because when your story is told well, your event continues working for you long after the day is over.

Looking for motion as well? We also offer nonprofit event videography in Los Angeles for organizations who want highlight films, testimonials, and storytelling content alongside photography.

We also provide broader Los Angeles event photography and videography for conferences, summits, and brand-led events.

Hi, I’m Bernadette.

Founder & Creative Director of Solhaus Media.

I’ve spent years documenting work rooted in impact, advocacy, and lived experience. I make sure my team and I bring that same care to every event we cover.

WE WEREN’T JUST LOOKING FOR SOMEONE TO CLICK A BUTTON.

For our Survivor Made screening tour, we needed more than just photos — we needed someone who could capture the heart of the event, and translate it into content people would actually feel.

From same-day photo galleries, to recap videos to quick-turn Vox Pops, the Solhaus Media team not only delivered, they made the whole process feel effortless.

They created a space where people opened up. They felt comfortable sharing their real stories.

Solhaus didn’t feel like just another vendor — they showed up like a partner who cared just as much about the outcome as we did.
