It was really a highlight to see David Kwong speak last night at the Essex House Hotel. He's a magician and a creator of crosswords for publications like the New York Times.

Stone Barns just had a new litter of Red Wattle Piglets and it was perfectly timed for my scheduled shoot with Maggie in the Apiary. All images shot with a pair of Canon 5D Mark IV's, one with a 100mm F2.8 macro and the other has the amazing lighting setup you see below with a Canon 24-105mm F4 lens.

It was really great to be back working as a photographer at NYSE for a few days. If the opportunity arose I would be happy to photograph more IPO's on the iconic trading floor of the New York Stock Exchange or the amazing tech studio of Nasdaq. They both provide some really amazing photo opportunities for newly listed companies and being the photographer for a business on such an important milestone is always a pleasure. Since working as the full time photographer at the New York Stock Exchange I've covered many large meetings and events across the globe, but it was still nice to land a few photography jobs close to home in such a familiar setting. If you have an opening bell or closing bell that you'd like photographed and want to have worldwide usage for your pictures, then hiring an outside photographer is your best option. You can see the full gallery for this event here.

I couldn't be happier to provide content for such an amazing museum.
Nothing better than spending the afternoon in a new restaurant photographing their food. We photographed a lot more dishes than originally planned, it was an onslaught of seafood, surf and turf and the most amazing looking roast pork with crispy skin or crackling. I love working as a food photographer and would love to create more content like this for other restaurants in New York City or the Hudson Valley.
