Experience Behind Every Event
Before launching Nico Hend Photography in 2017, I worked with large photography agencies covering corporate events for Fortune 500 companies. Since then, my work has taken me throughout San Francisco and the Bay Area, from Moscone Center and SFMOMA to The Jay, Pier 27, and the Julia Morgan Ballroom.
Coverage That Scales With Your Event
For larger or more complex events, I can build a trusted photography team around the coverage you need while remaining your lead photographer and point of contact.
Every Corporate Event Has Two Stories
The one on the agenda. And the one unfolding between keynote sessions, conversations, introductions, and the moments that give an event its character.
My approach to corporate event photography is observational, with a polished editorial finish. I balance the photographs clients expect with the candid conversations, interactions, connections, and energy of the room they might otherwise miss.
When direction is needed for speakers, award recipients, executives, or groups, it’s efficient and purposeful before returning to the flow of the event.
The result is a gallery that captures both what happened and what it felt like to be there.

Not every photography project fits neatly into a category. Tell me what you’re planning, when and where it’s taking place, and what you need photographed.
What It's Like to Work Together
