Iona Graduation Photographer
It’s hard to say what my favorite thing to shoot is, but I do know this, I love having an assignment that has no preconceived parameters. “Just capture the emotion” is about all of the direction I got from Iona. So the ability to walk around and just shoot for fun, and get the feel of an event is always the best. I didn’t expect to see so many decorated graduation caps, but I loved capturing them in photos.

Los Angeles HD Conference
It's always great to spend some time in Los Angeles especially when I'm hired to photograph a huge motorcycle gathering and conference for such an iconic brand. A huge thanks to the Proscenium team who create these incredible stages and backdrops for these images.

Guggenheim Museum
Definitely one of my favorite new clients this year is the Guggenheim Museum, I can't show any of the content I produce for them, but I always love photographing some exterior images of this incredible Frank Lloyd Wright building,

Long Lens at the Waldorf Astoria
It's not always the most creative position as your really unable to move around, but there's still something fun about shooting the stage with a 400mm lens. I haven't shot for Getty Images in nearly a year, but this paid assignment landed on a day that i had no other work. They also brought this well used Canon 400mm F2.8 for me to use.

It's always an honor to work for the museum and the annual dinner is definitely a highlight. Before the evening began, they had this amazing drone flying over the room to document the space. It felt like the future of photography was upon us as this digital camera was flown around the room. Jon Bon Jovi's performance was incredible as he opened and closed the evening.
