Behind the Scenes with Table Art’s Event Photography Team
When it comes to bespoke event styling, what happens behind the scenes is just as exciting as the final reveal. At Table Art, we don’t just design show-stopping centrepieces—we capture the magic that unfolds around them. This blog is a spotlight on the talented trio who document our events in their full glory. Whether it’s snapping glowing centrepieces or filming the hustle of set-up, our photographers and videographers play a vital role in shaping the Table Art story.
From international venues to local award shows, these team members—TJ, Gary, and Andy—bring their unique lens to each occasion. Read on to meet the crew that makes our visual storytelling unforgettable.
The Tech Guru with a Cinematic Eye
Our very own tech genius, Andy, is the guy with all the gear and all the know-how. From gimbals and 360° cameras to GoPros, Andy ensures no angle goes uncaptured.
What he’s best known for is his stop-motion magic. He’ll shoot hours of footage and condense it into seconds, allowing clients to see the entire setup process and the breathtaking reveal. He’s often the last man on site, giving him the chance to capture that perfect pre-guest moment—everything ready, no clutter, just style.
Favourite Shot: This year, it’s the Silverstone event. Andy documented our new branded cylinder lanterns in the iconic venue’s daylight. Normally a challenge, but not for him—it was a technical and artistic win.
Fun Fact: Andy has a unique pre-event ritual:
He screams in the van to get hyped up.
Don’t panic—it’s not a cry for help, just part of the routine!
The Boss, the GOAT, the Visionary
Gary, our MD, is the originator of the Table Art visual mission. He understood early on the power of event photography—not just for clients, but as an invaluable sales and marketing tool.
A master of angles and backdrops, Gary is known for transforming everyday settings into spectacular scenes. He often takes on our international bookings, and has been spotted pulling over mid-journey to photograph a centrepiece in front of an epic landscape. That’s dedication.
What sets Gary apart is his intuitive design sense. He sees the light, the layout, and the mood—and captures it with precision. Our team WhatsApp group is constantly buzzing with his live feedback:
“Get that in red will you?”
“Ask the AV guy to turn down the lights a bit.”
Because for Gary, it’s all about making the picture picture perfect.
Favourite Shot: The What Uni? Student Choice Awards 2025 at The Brewery London. A showcase of Table Art’s styling at its finest, blending table centres, lighting, and décor in harmony.
Fun Fact: Gary is a huge fan of trash TV and true crime documentaries. Long van journeys? That’s when you’ll catch him binging “MAFS” or the grittiest docuseries Netflix has to offer.
Gen Z Energy, Reels, and Relentless Content
As the newest and youngest member of our team, TJ is already making waves. Bringing that unmistakable Gen Z magic, there’s nothing this guy doesn’t capture—especially on his phone. If you’ve caught one of our behind-the-scenes Instagram Reels recently, chances are TJ is behind it.
From the moment the vans unload to the final coffee during pack-down, TJ’s lens is constantly rolling. The social media team love him, not just because he delivers endless content, but because he delivers quality content. His attention to detail and creative eye add energy and personality to our visual library.
Favourite Event: The EN Awards, where TJ captured the dazzling Neon Rings and the debut of our Maestro Robots—a double wow!
Fun Fact: TJ loves to dance. So if you see someone shaking his hips while pushing a flight case, that’s our TJ—joyful, fun, and always in motion.
Photography isn’t an afterthought at Table Art
It’s a core part of our creative strategy. Each shot serves a purpose:
Showcasing new designs
