Corporate Event Photography at The Edge: Dinner & Casino Night at Peak

,

As a New York City corporate event photographer, I recently had the privilege of capturing a spectacular evening at Peak, the private event space atop The Edge at Hudson Yards. The dinner & casino night was a beautiful blend of elegance, energy, and connection — all framed by sweeping views 101 floors above the Manhattan skyline.

My focus throughout the night was on storytelling through both formal moments and candid interactions: the speeches celebrating the company’s achievements; intimate networking conversations by the floor-to-ceiling windows; dramatic rooftop views against the city lights. When guests later moved into the casino portion — blackjack, poker, roulette — I looked for creative vantage points to capture laughter, suspense, and the joy of the evening’s entertainment.

Combining group shots, detail work, and atmospheric cityscape moments is central to my style. Whether it’s reflections on glass, ambient lighting, or bold architecture, I aim to deliver images that feel both polished and authentic. If you want a Manhattan corporate event photographer who makes every moment count, I’d love to bring this level of care to your next event.

Behind the Scenes at the 2025 US Open | NYC Corporate Event Photographer

,

As a New York City corporate event photographer, few assignments bring together prestige and energy quite like capturing exclusive moments at the US Open. I recently covered events hosted by IBM, including an intimate conversation featuring legends Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova—two icons whose legacy continues to inspire both sports and innovation.

Their conversation wasn’t just about matches past, but about leadership, rivalry, and what’s next for the sport. I focused on capturing both formal moments—the poised stage presence and audience engagement—and those in-between, authentic interactions behind the scenes: a quiet laugh, a thoughtful gaze, or the connection between speakers and listeners.

Corporate Photography at Global Events
Photographing corporate events like this goes far beyond staged moments and group shots. It’s about capturing:

  • Authentic connections between speakers and audience

  • Brand storytelling through event design, logos, and atmosphere

  • Candid behind-the-scenes moments that matter as much as the main stage

My style marries polished group and detail shots with a storytelling approach. Whether it’s dramatic lighting, reflective surfaces, or the tension of an iconic moment, these images become more than photos—they become visual narratives that reflect brand, culture, leadership, and purpose. For businesses using these images in marketing, media, or internal branding, the difference lies in authenticity and quality.

Documenting Global Dialogue: Foreign Policy Magazine’s NCDs Event at Apella NYC

, ,

As a seasoned NYC event photographer, I specialize in documenting high-profile events that shape global discourse. Recently, I had the privilege of photographing Foreign Policy Magazine's event at Apella NYC, focusing on non-communicable diseases (NCDs).

Held at Apella by Alexandria, renowned for its intimate setting and stunning views of the East River, the event brought together leaders from around the world for an impactful evening of dialogue, strategy, and collaboration.

Capturing such a significant event required a keen eye for detail and a deep understanding of the subject matter. My approach combined candid moments with formal shots, ensuring that the essence of the discussions and the atmosphere of the venue were preserved.

Professional event photography plays a crucial role in documenting influence and extending reach across media platforms. High-quality visuals help reinforce authority and preserve the story of meaningful global engagement.
