Anyone from the Events & Hospitality industry here? How are things looking for the coming months

Hey everyone,

I wanted to hear from people working in the events, hospitality, weddings, entertainment, and related industries in Dubai/UAE.

For the last 6 months or so, work has been extremely slow for me, especially when it comes to events. I’m curious to know if others in the industry are experiencing the same thing or if things are starting to pick up.

How are things looking from your side for the next few months? Are you seeing more enquiries/bookings coming in, or is it still pretty quiet?

Also, what are you guys planning to do if things continue like this? Are you switching to other types of work, exploring different industries, moving to another market, or just waiting for things to pick up?

Would really appreciate hearing honest experiences from people in the industry. I’m sure I’m not the only one trying to figure out what the next few months are going to look like.

Looking for a couple for a fun in-home portrait session

​

Hey everyone!

I'm a photographer with 10+ years of experience shooting weddings and portraits. I recently moved to Dubai, and I'm looking to build more local work and create some fresh portfolio content.

I'm looking for a fun, easy-going couple who'd be interested in an in-home lifestyle portrait session. Think cozy moments like making coffee together, cooking, reading, playing games, dancing in the living room, or just hanging out naturally—nothing too posed.

The session will be relaxed, around 1–2 hours, and you'll receive professionally edited high-resolution photos at no cost.

If you've always wanted some natural photos together and don't mind me using a few for my portfolio/social media, I'd love to hear from you!

Feel free to DM me, and I can share my portfolio

Freelance Photographer

Hey everyone,

Like many others, I'm just trying to find enough freelance work to manage my expenses and build my network in Dubai.

I'm happy to take on pretty much any photography work, including:

Birthday parties

Small events

Corporate events

Club & nightlife

Real estate / Airbnb

Portraits

Couple Shoots

If you know someone looking for a photographer, or if you have any leads, I'd be really grateful. Even sharing this with someone who might need a photographer would mean a lot.

Thanks for reading! Feel free to DM me anytime.
