Brand Activations, Nonprofit Events & Corporate Conferences

Corporate event photographer based in NYC & Kingston NY. I document brand activations, nonprofit conferences, fashion week events, and executive gatherings with a focus on storytelling, strategy, and fast-turnaround content for marketing teams.

I’ve spent over fifteen years documenting rooms where something real is happening

I photograph at the intersection of energy and intention: global beverage brands, policy conferences, nonprofit summits, cultural institutions.

I've shot brand activations for Veuve Clicquot, Vans, El Jimador Tequila, Rekorderlig, and Diplomático, served as official photographer for Afterpay at New York Fashion Week, and covered advocacy gatherings like the International Drug Policy Reform Conference with the Drug Policy Alliance.

In New York, I've photographed high-profile book launches, including Takashi Murakami's Battle Royale! with Nobuo Tsuji, and Diane von Furstenberg in conversation with Alain Elkann.

As official photographer for Okayplayer at The Roots Picnic, I shot backstage portraits and live performances inside one of hip hop's most respected institutions. Backstage has its own rhythm. It takes trust, instinct, and timing: knowing when to step forward and when to disappear.

I've also worked with Chief, photographing high-profile women CEOs and founders through editorial headshots and interview coverage. These sessions call for discretion, efficiency, and an understanding of presence, capturing leadership so it reads as intelligent, composed, human.

Over the past decade I've photographed artists and cultural figures including Alicia Keys, Anderson .Paak, Kendrick Lamar, Nas, Nicki Minaj, Solange, Wu-Tang Clan, D'Angelo, DMX, Ghostface Killah, Questlove, Lil Uzi Vert, Takashi Murakami, and Will & Jada Smith.

Across Australia and the US, I work with marketing teams, production agencies, publishers, nonprofits, and cultural organizations to make imagery that's alive, strategic, and immediately usable, for press, sponsors, social, and whatever comes next.

My eye is both documentary and brand-aware: the keynote moment and the quiet exchange backstage, the handshake before the announcement, the breath before an artist steps on stage, the reaction when the message lands.

I provide:

• Corporate event photography

• Conference coverage

• Nonprofit and advocacy documentation

• Brand activation photography

• Fashion week and cultural event coverage

• Executive and speaker portraits

• Event recap and sizzle videos

• Fast-turnaround content for social and press

I understand how events move. Tight timelines. Lighting that shifts by the minute. Stakeholders who need content yesterday. I work calmly, efficiently, and with an eye toward both storytelling and strategy.

Based in the Hudson Valley & Jersey City. Available nationwide.
