I seem to spend a lot of time in Times Square chasing billboards for photographs. It’s normally best to know the schedule and the exact location before heading out to Times Square to photograph a billboard. There are so many large ads playing everywhere in Times Square that it takes a lot of patience to capture images of the adverts.

It’s always good to hire a photographer to cover a large scale project like this in the middle of Times Square on the Nasdaq Billboard. I took photography and video through the day for this company who were making an impressive announcement on the Nasdaq Marketsite Jumbotron.

It’s always great to photograph the closing bell at both the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq in New York City, Unfortunately so many of those opportunities have become virtual. Thankfully I was hired by a marketing PR firm to document the exterior facade of the Nasdaq as a company rings the closing bell virtually. Its such an awesome thing to be in Times Square photographing an event again. To book me for closing bell photography at either Nasdaq or the New York Stock Exchange please email me.

I was commissioned by Axalta to document the "Unconditional Surrender" statue by Seward Johnson that's in Times Square this weekend. They just found out that the paint used by the artist was made by them.
