When Common Sense Media celebrated their 20th anniversary with a media awards gala in San Francisco, it wasn’t just a ceremony — it was a moment of institutional reflection, mission alignment, and high-profile visibility.


Photographing U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy receiving an award on stage was a powerful image. But what matters more is what it represents: trust, credibility, and purpose-driven leadership — values that Nico Hend Photography strives to reflect in every frame.

Legacy moments like these are about more than who’s on stage. They’re about the energy in the room, the meaning behind the recognition, and the way your organization shows up for the world to see.

We work with nonprofits, policy leaders, and mission-aligned brands to document these gatherings with clarity, grace, and deep respect for your work.

Because the visuals you walk away with aren’t just for PR — they’re part of your institutional memory.


Looking for event photography that’s thoughtful, strategic, and never just background? Let’s talk.
