Cycling and Bike Race Photography

Cycling and Bike Race Photography Services

Participant Images

Participant images are a gold standard for events to offer to their racers. Participant images are thousands of images created with the participant in mind. Participant images can either be provided directly to clients or tagged and hosted on our site for simple, quick and efficient distribution to bike race participants.

Cycling events usually involve placing a photographer at the finish line, and 1 or 2 out on the course in various scenic areas. Depending on the density of your race, we may double up photographers at each location to ensure we photograph more participants.

Promotional Images

Promotional photography provides you all the super high resolution, unique shots of your event for marketing and promoting your event. Usually, depending on the length of your event, we provide between 100 and 200 high resolution, unique shots, showcasing a mixture of action, scenery, branding, and any shot request you might have. After the event, each image is given considerable individual attention in post-processing to get them as close to perfect as possible, and completely turned around within 24 hours of your event, but often on the same day.

Regardless if you are a stand alone bike race, or your bike race is part of a duathlon or triathlon, our promotional photographers have significant experience creating beautiful action and scenery shots of your race. We know the shots cyclist like and the shots that market well. You can expect a mix of detail shots, action shots, branding shots, and scenery shots showcasing the environment of your event.

Post Processing and Marketing Solutions

Unlike many photography companies, John Kelly Photos will apply post-processing, filtering, and touch ups to every single participant image. These touch ups correspond to a significantly greater download rate of photos after events, maximizing the value of our photography services.

As a marketing incentive to help our clients secure photo sponsors or increase the value of the service for our clients, our bib tagging and image distribution application can be branded and customized to each event's page. These customizations can include 1, 2 or no watermarks on the image that are dynamically placed on the image only when a participant views the image, meaning you can instantly change the watermarks or sell watermark sponsorships even after the event images are published. Additionally, users can be prompted with a one time, non-invasive, call-to-action feature, such as liking a Facebook page, or signing up for a next event. All of our image tagging and distribution application pages can be individualized to your specific event's needs both functionally and in appearance.
