For Event Organisers
The Professional Photography Partner for Your Sporting Event
Organising any sporting event - big or small - is challenging. From planning routes and venues to managing registrations and sponsorships, your plate is more than full. SportPix takes professional event photography completely off your shoulders, leaving you to focus entirely on making the day successful and memorable for your athletes.
Why Partner With SportPix?
Quality Images That Reflect Your Event's True Spirit
Photographs are your best way to showcase your event - today, tomorrow, and into the future. At SportPix, we never settle for average-quality images. Our professional photographers arrive early, scout the best locations, and passionately capture the genuine emotion and excitement of every participant; from the eager smiles at the start line, to the sheer joy at crossing the finish line.
Instant Access & Engagement for Your Athletes
Athletes love seeing and sharing their memories immediately. SportPix uses advanced bib-recognition technology, allowing us to instantly identify participants' race numbers, making images available in real time. Your athletes will have online access to their professional-quality photos literally moments after finishing their race - encouraging instant social-media sharing and engagement.
Exceptional Event Exposure & Promotion
Your event's exposure doesn't end when the race finishes. With hundreds or even thousands of participants sharing your event-branded images on social media, your event gains immediate and ongoing organic exposure. We offer customised photo overlays, specifically tailored to showcase official event details, branding, sponsor logos, or key event messages.

Athlete & event-branded Photo Options
- Standard athlete purchases: Athletes buy individual images, bulk photo packs, or premium printed merchandise directly via our easy-to-use online store.
- Sponsor partnership photos: SportPix can offer your event mutually beneficial commercial partnerships, letting participants access event-branded images free of charge. Sponsors gain broad and immediate exposure through branded images with their logos and messages prominently displayed. (Premium, non-branded images remain available for athletes wishing to purchase them.)
What Does SportPix Cost the Event Organiser?
In most cases, having SportPix photograph your event doesn't cost you a cent—we earn directly from athletes who purchase their photos via our platform. However, certain arrangements, such as event-branded sponsorship packages and free-to-athlete images, involve a custom commercial partnership arrangement.
We’re always transparent and clear about any pricing and costs, so simply contact us to discuss further details - we’ll help find the best solution for your unique event.
Confidence and Trust at Every Stage
We partner thoughtfully and ethically with events across South Africa, from local community races to significant national and international events. Every partnership is built on honesty, transparency, reliability, and ethical business practices—core values you'll see reflected in everything we do.
In addition, SportPix maintains strict privacy and compliance standards around personal images, particularly concerning minors. You can confidently assure your event participants that their privacy and comfort is fully respected.
