As an NYC corporate event photographer, I specialize in capturing both the formal and candid moments that define professional gatherings. Recently, I photographed a panel discussion hosted by Foreign Policy during UN Women’s Week in Chelsea, Manhattan. The event brought together leaders and professionals to discuss global issues surrounding gender equality, requiring a balance of polished stage coverage and intimate attendee moments.
My approach to panel discussion photography focuses on several key aspects. I highlight the speakers, capturing each panelist’s expressions and engagement with fellow presenters. I also showcase the audience, documenting reactions that bring authenticity and context to the event. Branding elements, including Foreign Policy’s signage and sponsor logos, are carefully photographed to tell a complete visual story. Finally, candid moments—such as laughter, thoughtful reflections, and connections between attendees—illustrate the event’s impact beyond the formal discussion.

















































To provide comprehensive coverage, I utilized a combination of wide-angle shots to show the venue and attendance, along with close-ups of panelists and attendees. This approach ensures clients receive a visually compelling record of their event that conveys both scale and emotion.
