Same-day edit

Your event, edited
before the room is empty.

During the event: a highlights gallery for press and social, while people are still talking about it.

Before guests leave: a finished reel, on the big screen or in your inbox.

Within 24 to 48 hours: the full edited gallery and the long-form film.

We have delivered more than 700 same-day edits. The deadline is part of the brief, so we plan the crew around it. (We are also fine at parking.)

Two minutes of our greatest hits.

Seventeen years of events in the time it takes to make a coffee. Worth watching with the sound on.

Who we work with.

Four kinds of client book us most. Same crew and the same standard, whichever door you came in through.

White-label

Event agencies

Your client, your brand, our crew. We shoot under your name, deliver to your timeline and stay out of the client relationship. Producers come back because nothing needs chasing.

Conferences & summits

Corporate events

Conferences, town halls, gala dinners and award nights. The stage, the speakers and the room, with photos ready for press while the event is still running.

We have used MelRish for our showroom events for many years and have always been super happy with their work. A very professional company, highly recommended. Special thank you to Miguel for capturing perfect shots as always.

Unstoppable Social Media Takeover: Dubai Muscle & Active Show 2025

Behind the scenes of our social media coverage at Dubai Muscle Show and Dubai Active 2025.

The questions you were about to ask.

Event coverage starts from AED 1,500 for a short single-photographer brief. Full-day multi-camera photo and video with a same-day edit sits higher. The real driver is scope: event length, crew size, deliverables, and whether you need video alongside photography. We send a tailored quote within one working day.

A finished highlight film, edited on site while your event is still running, ready to play on screen or share before guests leave. We have delivered more than 700 of them, for conferences, launches, races and award nights.

Yes. We shoot under your brand, follow your client brief and deliver to you, not your client. No MelRish logos on site, no business cards handed out. Plenty of our best work carries someone else’s name.

Highlights gallery during the event for press and social. Same-day video edit on request. Full edited gallery within 24 to 48 hours.

Yes. We cover multi-day shows at DWTC, Expo City and ADNEC for organisers and exhibitors, with daily galleries and a reel at the end of each day. Dubai Muscle Show has booked us three years in a row.

Yes. Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ras Al Khaimah and the rest of the UAE regularly, and we travel with clients across the Middle East and beyond.

Among others: Mercedes, Nestlé, KPMG, UN Women, Uber, ACWA Power, Arabian Adventures, Gulf Dunes and Zoom. Events include the Special Olympics World Games Abu Dhabi 2019, the ICA Congress Abu Dhabi 2023, the World Policy Conference, LIDE, Dubai Run and Dubai Ride for four years running, and Dubai Muscle Show for three. We were also one of the first members of The Events Group (TEG), and event agencies across the region use us white-label.
