Corporate Event Photography at The Edge: Dinner & Casino Night at Peak

,

As a New York City corporate event photographer, I recently had the privilege of capturing a spectacular evening at Peak, the private event space atop The Edge at Hudson Yards. The dinner & casino night was a beautiful blend of elegance, energy, and connection — all framed by sweeping views 101 floors above the Manhattan skyline.

My focus throughout the night was on storytelling through both formal moments and candid interactions: the speeches celebrating the company’s achievements; intimate networking conversations by the floor-to-ceiling windows; dramatic rooftop views against the city lights. When guests later moved into the casino portion — blackjack, poker, roulette — I looked for creative vantage points to capture laughter, suspense, and the joy of the evening’s entertainment.

Combining group shots, detail work, and atmospheric cityscape moments is central to my style. Whether it’s reflections on glass, ambient lighting, or bold architecture, I aim to deliver images that feel both polished and authentic. If you want a Manhattan corporate event photographer who makes every moment count, I’d love to bring this level of care to your next event.

Behind the Scenes at the 2025 US Open | NYC Corporate Event Photographer

,

As a New York City corporate event photographer, few assignments bring together prestige and energy quite like capturing exclusive moments at the US Open. I recently covered events hosted by IBM, including an intimate conversation featuring legends Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova—two icons whose legacy continues to inspire both sports and innovation.

Their conversation wasn’t just about matches past, but about leadership, rivalry, and what’s next for the sport. I focused on capturing both formal moments—the poised stage presence and audience engagement—and those in-between, authentic interactions behind the scenes: a quiet laugh, a thoughtful gaze, or the connection between speakers and listeners.

Corporate Photography at Global Events
Photographing corporate events like this goes far beyond staged moments and group shots. It’s about capturing:

  • Authentic connections between speakers and audience

  • Brand storytelling through event design, logos, and atmosphere

  • Candid behind-the-scenes moments that matter as much as the main stage

My style marries polished group and detail shots with a storytelling approach. Whether it’s dramatic lighting, reflective surfaces, or the tension of an iconic moment, these images become more than photos—they become visual narratives that reflect brand, culture, leadership, and purpose. For businesses using these images in marketing, media, or internal branding, the difference lies in authenticity and quality.

This setting allowed for a seamless blend of candid moments and editorial-style photography, capturing both the ambiance and the interactions of the guests.

Photographing the Annual Hispanic Star Gala at Cipriani Wall Street | NYC Event Photography

The Hispanic Star Gala, presented by We Are All Human, is a premier event celebrating the achievements and contributions of the Hispanic community. Held at the iconic Cipriani Wall Street in New York City, this gala brings together leaders, influencers, and advocates for an unforgettable evening.

In December 2024, I had the privilege of capturing this prestigious event for the second consecutive year. Unlike the previous year, where a team of three photographers was deployed, this time I was entrusted with the responsibility of documenting the entire event solo. The challenge was to encapsulate the dynamic atmosphere, the elegance, and the intimate moments that define the Hispanic Star Gala.

Key Moments Captured:

  • Speeches and Award Presentations: These moments were among the most intimate and inspiring of the night. Capturing the emotion of the speakers and honorees was essential, as these individuals are often leaders and role models within the Hispanic community.

  • Guest Interactions and Networking: The gala isn't just about speeches and awards; it's also about connection and collaboration. Documenting candid moments where guests engage with one another showcases the spirit of the event.

  • Performances and Entertainment: Entertainment played a key role in the evening's festivities. Photographing the performers—whether musicians, dancers, or speakers—added an extra layer of dynamism to the photos.

  • Group Shots and Crowds: The gala brought together a diverse range of individuals. Capturing group shots of attendees in various settings, such as seated at tables, networking, or enjoying performances, added context and told a fuller story.

Utilizing two cameras, I was able to seamlessly transition between capturing close-up shots that highlighted the emotion and expressions of the guests and wide-angle shots that showcased the grandeur and scale of the event. This approach ensured a comprehensive visual narrative that encapsulated the essence of the evening.
