Mud Runs and OCR Event Photography Services

Mud Runs and Obstacle Course Racing events require a little bit more out of your photographers than your standard 5k. Our photographers have experience with some of the largest OCR events and mud runs in the country.



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 mud runs ocr participants.

Mud runs and OCR events have some of the highest rate of photo downloads of any of the events we service. Not only do participants download many more photos, but they are shared more frequently and a single image with your events' watermark on it can be seen by thousands of potential new racers. Because of this, the participant images are almost as important to marketing as promotional images. We recommend at least 1 photographer at your events' pinnacle obstacle, one or two at an obstacle that is easy to photograph and that can maximize the number of participants we capture, and 1 at the finish line taking posed shots with medals. Posed shots at OCR events are in much more demand than any other type of event.



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 to 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.

Mud runs and OCR provide some of the best promotional images. Our promotional photographers will try to emphasize any proprietary obstacles to your event, capture as much branding as possible, create photos showcasing teamwork and positive interaction, and everything else that makes your event looks great! It is very likely during a mud run our promotional photographer will be the muddiest person there.

Bib tagging

We can quickly process, edit and tag all your event images after the event. Our tagging application has unique search features to maximize results for each participant. We allow participants to tag each other in photos our team could not find tags, significantly increasing the number of tags we capture each event. We handle the logistics of keeping out spam tags, and the participants enjoy their great images in greater numbers. Participants can search for their and their friends' bib number, filter images by location or time, and choose to only view images without tags to help narrow images when no results are found. Additionally, our team will help all participants dig through the gallery to find images of themselves they could not if they have any trouble.



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.
