Editorial Credentials That Set Event Coverage Apart
Most corporate event photographers come from a wedding or portrait background. Josh’s training is different, he’s a working editorial photojournalist whose event coverage runs alongside news photography that’s distributed through Agence France-Presse (AFP) and Getty Images, with bylines in TIME, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, and the San Francisco Chronicle.
That editorial discipline, moving fast and unobtrusively, finding the moment that matters, working under pressure, is what he brings to corporate event coverage. The result is event photography that feels editorial, not staged.
Recent Large-Scale Event Work
Recent large corporate event coverage includes a 950-person aerial group photo at Union Square and executive portrait work with Google CEO Sundar Pichai and AWS CEO Matt Garman. From CES and AWS re:Invent to all-hands meetings and fundraising galas, Josh has photographed events at every scale.
