GRAB A CUP OF COFFEE & RELAX
THE STORIES
I was that kid who stared at adults for wayyy too long. I was just studying. Curious about their behavior & the why behind their mannerisms. Searching for a feeling. By staring, I became pretty decent at reading a scene & anticipating moments before they’d happen. Cheers to over a decade of conference photography…Here’s to chasing more of these moments in 2024. 🖤
Read MoreThe event, The Role of LGBTQ+ Talent in Shaping the Future of Business, brought Goldman Sachs, Out Leadership and other industry thought leaders together to discuss what we are doing within our organizations. This event focused on how attracting, retaining, and promoting LGBTQ+ talent impacts our own organizations, as well as all of our external relationships.

Read MoreConference photography is an excellent way to remember specific moments at the event, but conference recap videography is the best way to showcase the intentionality and really share the spirit of the event itself. Imagine seeing your emotions and in-the-moment reactions to awards and keynote speakers played on the big screen, in-person. Those are the core memories your team and attendees take with them after the conference ends, and what most clients in the past have said was the most rewarding part of the experience.
Read MoreListen, when I say I was excited for this event, I mean I was entirely unable to focus on anything else the week leading up to it. I worked in the Service industry for many years as a server and bartender, so this was my own special kind of nerd out. I was always fascinated by the marketing science behind many of the menu, décor, and music decisions, but I never imagined there were entire events dedicated to the details. It makes sense that there are organizations that honor industry leaders in various categories, but it’s not something I was ever privy to even as a manager. Turns out, I was just the wrong kind of manager!
Read MoreMost of you are aware of my love for storytelling. The purpose of me photographing Nike Women’s Marathon was to capture reactions. To deliver images that had emotion. This is the first year that Nike was implementing jumbotrons into the marathons in the United States. These jumbotrons would be synced with the timing mats that each runner would cross over along their race. The timing mat would register their RFID chip in their bib and trigger the jumbtron to display a personalize encouraging message. Can you imagine after having no energy and feeling like you want to give up…you’re at mile 21 and your name pops up?
Read MoreThis wedding event is a photographer’s dream. Everywhere you turn there is a magical scene from a movie. Massive wedding cakes and wedding ring shaped ice sculptures to elegant wedding gowns and decorations. I for one am a big fan of intimate elopements and micro weddings but this event always makes me appreciate the planning that goes into orchestrating such an elaborate event and what it takes to pull off a seamless event. Check out my time photographing the Special Event in 2016 as well.
Read MoreI know that I personally took for granted the way someone’s face lights up when they smile and how hard it was to capture emotion and heart felt moments with only eyes showing and distance being kept. We had to pivot countless times but still being there when we could to document the lows and the highs of 2020 was important to us. Seeing New York City looking like a ghost town was something I will never forget.
