All images taken with a Sony A9 and Sony A7iii with 12-24 F4 lens, 24-70 F2.8 lens and 70-200 F2.8 lens.

After photographing over a thousand opening and closing bells at the New York Stock Exchange, its always a pleasure to cover an opening bell ceremony at either market place, NYSE or Nasdaq. They always manage to run a very well oiled machine at Nasdaq in Times Square. The event team and photographer are both calm and efficient and are very welcoming to an additional photographer to photograph the opening bell ceremony

Shooting a conference with Remote Cameras

When companies create this amazing sets with huge LED screens and perfect theater lighting, it’s important to capture the whole scene, but thats not always possible all the time with just one camera, so I hide cameras around the venue, normally a fisheye and a fixed long lens, but also have been playing around with the ew Gopro Hero 7 and it’s lowlight capabilities shooting Raw files.

I was particularly happy with the Hooters stage, as I went out to their large location outside of Atlanta Georgia and photographed a very wide interior for the screen behind them.
