Screens, demos and stage moments
LED walls, dashboards and live demos are the heart of a technology stand, and they are the hardest thing to photograph well: screens band, flicker and blow out unless shutter speed and white balance are matched to the panel. We shoot every screen clean before the doors open and again in use with visitors, and we cover keynotes, signings and delegation visits with two angles where organiser rules allow. Executive and engineer interviews are recorded at the stand with a lavalier microphone and subtitled in English and Arabic.
Before the doors open. We are on your stand as soon as badges allow: the empty architecture, graphics and product displays while everything is still clean, then team portraits before the first visitors arrive.
During show hours. Visitors, demonstrations, meetings and the atmosphere in the hall, always from the edge of the stand. Interviews are placed in a quiet slot, typically early afternoon, with our own light and lavalier microphones.
The same evening. Editing starts on site during the day. First selects reach you before the hall closes, the finished photo set and the recap film before the day is over, so your team posts on LinkedIn while Dubai FinTech Summit is still running.
For a 2-day show we agree a plan per day: full coverage on the opening day, when the stand is freshest and VIP visits are most likely, then shorter blocks on the following days for new visitors, new product angles and the vertical clips.

Working at Madinat Jumeirah Conference & Events Centre
Madinat Jumeirah's conference and events centre sits inside the resort between Jumeirah Beach and the Burj Al Arab, with a large arena hall, a ballroom and a run of meeting rooms opening onto waterways and terraces. It is a hotel venue, not an exhibition hall: stage lighting, carpeted floors, evening receptions and a lot of daylight in the pre-function areas. Summits and conference-led shows here are photographed like corporate events, with the stages, the networking spaces and the resort backdrops.
Access is by car along Jumeirah Beach Road or Al Sufouh Road; the crew parks at the resort and moves between halls on foot. Our studio is about thirty-five minutes away.
Booking from abroad
Most exhibitors at Dubai FinTech Summit book from abroad, and the process runs remotely: send hall and stand number by email or WhatsApp, you receive a fixed quote within 24 hours and confirm in writing. Payment is 50 percent on booking and 50 percent on the show day, by bank transfer. The quote is fixed, so what you confirm is what you pay.
Dubai FinTech Summit is one of the busier weeks of the UAE show season, so ask four to six weeks ahead if you want a specific day and time. Later requests usually work as well, because the crew is already in the city; during the show week WhatsApp is the fastest way to reach us.

Dubai FinTech Summit: questions exhibitors ask
When is Dubai FinTech Summit 2026 and where is it held?
Dubai FinTech Summit 2026 runs 2 – 3 November 2026 at Madinat Jumeirah Conference & Events Centre in Dubai. 4th edition; moved from its usual May slot to November 2026.
Where is LUMIQ based?
In Dubai Silicon Oasis, a short drive from Madinat Jumeirah Conference & Events Centre, so the crew is on your stand before the doors open on every show day.
How fast do we get the photos and the film?
The same day. Editing starts on site during show hours; first selects reach you before the hall closes and the finished set with the recap film before the day is over. Keynote and signing photos can be delivered within the hour on request.
Can we book photo and video together?
Yes, and it is the most common booking: an experienced crew covers both, so you receive a full photo set and a recap film from a single booking, with one look across everything.
Do we need a shot list or briefing?
No. Send your goals in one short call or message, plus hall and stand number. With more than 20 years of production experience we know what a fintech & financial services stand needs; you approve the plan and focus on your visitors.
Are interviews subtitled?
Yes. On-stand interviews are delivered with subtitles in English and Arabic as standard, plus a clean version without subtitles for your own edits.
Can you cover several days of Dubai FinTech Summit?
Yes. For multi-day shows we typically cover the opening day in full and the following days in shorter blocks, so you get fresh content every day at a lower total than repeating full days.
Do you also film conferences and evening events around the show?
Yes. Keynotes, awards dinners, launch receptions and hospitality evenings at the hotels next to the venue are covered by the same crew on the same booking. See our event video page.
