Malcolm Gladwell speaks at the Essex House

I am a huge fan of Malcolm Gladwell, I've listened to most of his podcasts and read a few books. He's just an incredible journalist and really delves into the topic and looks at the world from a different angle. I loved photographing him speaking the Essex House today. I would love to be the photographer at any conference that he speaks at. Checkout his podcast Revisionist History.

NYSE Photographer for Sunlands IPO

in

Today I was the photographer for the Sunlands IPO at the New York Stock Exchange. It has been a few years since I was back on the trading floor, and it was good to photograph another IPO on the iconic NYSE floor. I spent nearly 5 years working as the in house photographer at the NYSE and it was a great place to meet a lot of the amazing clients I work with now. It was really great to be back though and would love to cover more IPO's for future clients who go public. I've also photographed a few IPO's at Nasdaq in Times Square.

Remote Camera Setup at Conferences and Events

I photograph a lot of amazing conferences and meetings for so many different brands across the country and always try to setup a remote camera or additional wireless camera to act as another photographer from a fixed angel. The remote camera setup allows me to move around more for different and often more creative angels, while I can still guarantee that we have straight images of the stage and speaker setup. I'm often hired by the people who designed and created the stage so I have to document their work as well as photograph the meeting or conference in progress. Often hiding a remote camera can help create an image that wouldn't be possible from a standard photographers perspective, and I like to mount cameras on monopods to reach different angles.

Remote Camera Photography

If you need a conference, meeting, party or gala photographed and you think a remote camera would be a nice addition, please don't hesitate to reach out and email me here. I'm always happy to make new contacts and work with new clients. I'm also available for headshots, portraits and lifestyle shoots. I have a great team who can help produce some amazing content.
