Opening Bell Photographer

NYSE IPO Photographer for Beachbody on Wall Street

I always enjoy covering the opening bell photography at the New York Stock Exchange. It’s a fin morning to photograph an IPO or newly listed company hoping public. There’s always a few key photos to capture on the bell podium and group photos in front of the facade of the NYSE, but then theres plenty of fun to photos to take too. If you have an IPO coming up at the New York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq, please do not hesitate to book me. Often the photography taken in house is owned exclusively by Nasdaq or NYSE, so bringing your own photographer can give you more freedom of usage.

New York Stock Exchange Video for Zeta Global IPO

Here is a short video that shows some of the moments during an IPO at the New York Stock Exchange. I’ve been working on my video production and editing skills. The company hired me to shoot stills only, but with a crafty GoPro mount I could capture some of the moments on video. If you ever need a photographer of videographer for your IPO, opening bell or closing bell, please let me know. I’ve photographed about 1000 opening and closing bells over the years and probably a few hundred initial public offerings at the NYSE and at Nasdaq.

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

Greentree Hospitality Group IPO at the New York Stock Exchange

Greentree Hospitality Group IPO at the New York Stock Exchange on March 27, 2018 on Wall Street in New York City. It was great to be back at NYSE on the trading floor to photograph another IPO for my Investor Relations client Christensen IR. Greentree Hospitality group were another amazing Chinese company who went public on the New York Stock Exchange today. I'd love to cover more IPO's for future clients who might want additional photographs than the standard photographer provides and have them delivered immediately.
