Idle Hands Media offers photography, videography, social media management and ad management for Calgary hospitality, recreation and tourism businesses, plus wedding and event coverage. Prices depend on the project, so every quote is custom.
Photography
Food, rooms, teams and guests, shot in natural light so your place looks like itself.
A shoot usually covers the space, the menu or product, the people who run it, and guests enjoying it. You get a full gallery edited for your website, menus, listings and press.
What's included
- A planning call and shot list built around how you'll use the photos
- On-location shooting at your restaurant, venue, tour or property
- An edited gallery delivered online, sized for web and print

Videography
Brand films, short reels and event recaps that show what a visit feels like.
Video works best when it's planned around where it will run. We shoot and edit for your website, Instagram and TikTok, ads and screens in your space.
What's included
- A concept and storyboard for each piece, then filming on location
- Edited cuts for each platform you post on

- Monthly adjustments and a short report in plain numbers

Weddings and events
Wedding and event photography
Your wedding is one day, and the photos and film are what you keep from it. Each wedding and event we take on gets its own plan, built with you well before the day.
Before the day, we meet to talk through the plan, the people who matter most and the moments you don't want missed. On the day, we stay out of your guests' way. Afterwards you get an edited gallery and, if you add video, a highlight film you'll want to watch again.
- Weddings, elopements and engagement sessions
- Private parties, milestones and corporate events
- Photo, video, or both from one team
Starting prices on request. Inquire for a custom quote.
