When I am looking for a local photographer with a quick turnaround, I usually use this company called Snappr! They ask a few qualifying questions about what you're looking for and then provide profiles for local photographers who are available on that day and time. And then you're able to look through them and decide who you want to reach out to. It's a great service when you don't have any existing relationships/recos in the area!

Where to Find Budget-Friendly Event Venues in Boston and SF?

We could use some help from this amazing community -- we are trying to source venues in Boston and SF for June and our client has little to no money. We've looked at Loft on Two in Boston - and similar locations in SF (but they are just too pricey).

1 1/2 day program

150 people in SF and 75 people in BOS

Need main presentation room + 2 small breakout rooms + space to serve lunch

If the venue has built in AV, that is a plus b/c our AV budget is super small too.

Any ideas you may have is much appreciated.
