New York Stock Exchange Video for Zeta Global IPO

in , ,

Here is a short video that shows some of the moments during an IPO at the New York Stock Exchange. I’ve been working on my video production and editing skills. The company hired me to shoot stills only, but with a crafty GoPro mount I could capture some of the moments on video. If you ever need a photographer of videographer for your IPO, opening bell or closing bell, please let me know. I’ve photographed about 1000 opening and closing bells over the years and probably a few hundred initial public offerings at the NYSE and at Nasdaq.

Bluestone Lane Hudson Yards Cafe Photography

Bluestone Lane opens a new cafe in Hudson Yards, just a stones throw away from the Vessel and an incredible shopping center. Well worth the visit for a flat white and avocado smash.

Iona Graduation Photographer

in ,

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.

Today the 9/11 Memorial marks the 19th anniversary of the end of the rescue and recovery period at Ground Zero. At 9:30 a.m. they held a special commemorative moment on the 9/11 Memorial Glade to honor all the rescue, recovery and relief workers and those who are sick or have died from 9/11-related illnesses.

NYRP Sherman Creek Video

in ,

Working as a photographer has been my main source of income for the past 15 years, but recently I’ve really focused on making moving images, or videos and I’m so happy that NYRP have asked for more content like this. Setting up a Sony A9 in Sherman Creek with a lavalier microphone and a small DJI Mini 2 drone is really all I need to shoot this content. If you need a quick short for social media or to promote you’re brand I’d love to work on it.

Working on more Video Projects

in ,

I’ve been shooting videos for clients for a couple of years, but often I’m handing over the editing or not being completely involved in all aspects of production. This is my first full shoot and edit solo and I’m pretty happy with the result. Theres definitely more work to be done and more learning always, but thats the joy of learning new skills. With my drone footage and a couple of well placed mics, I think it all came together pretty well.
