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.

Landmark CIO Summit 2016
Landmark CIO Summit 2016 at 10 on the Park in Columbus Circle in New York City. It was a pleasure working for a new client on this interesting tech conference. They kept all the speakers brief and that meant it captured the audience interest more than some conferences. I really enjoy spending the day shooting interesting people talking about topics they clearly love.
