Conference at the Palace Hotel in New York City
It's always a pleasure to be the photographer at a conference in The Palace Hotel in New York City on Madison Ave. The Hotel does such a nice job with the setup and audio and lighting. It's really an easy place to photograph.
Images shot with a Canon 5D Mark IV, the new Canon 16-35mm F2.8 iii and Sony A9 with the incredible Sony 70-200mm F2.8 Lens.

New Years Eve in Times Square
I'm still trying to process everything that happened last night. It was really all so amazing a little bit like a dream, being right in the middle of Times Square for the whole evening in way below freezing temperatures with one of my favorite celebrities, Steve Harvey and covering the celebrity wedding of Maria Menounos. Here are a few quick selected photos from the evening.

Minnie Mouse gets a makeover
Back when I photographed a lot more press events, I used to go to the empire state building and cover the lighting ceremony. I never really thought the Minnie Mouse photos were ever going to run and then Minnie gets a makeover! On the left is my photo from Getty Images.

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.

Prudential New York Conference - If you haven't gone to the top of One World Trade to see the Observatory, I would highly recommend it. There's an incredible 360 gallery and a lot of fantastic photo opportunities, especially when the sun is setting her New Jersey. Prudential hold their annual conference in New York City and this year they were at the Conrad Hotel in Battery Park, New York.
