Photographing The Best Speakers in the World: National Speakers Association

Early in 2023 I was introduced to the National Speakers Association by one of their board members Joe Mull, who I met and photographed earlier in the year at a conference in Atlanta.

The association was looking for a photographer for their largest conference of the year, Influence in Orlando, Florida.

The conference was 3 days in duration, would have 2 different award ceremonies, would have lifetime achievement awards handed out, keynotes from some of the biggest names on the planet and all kinds of speakers from around the world.

In addition, NSA wanted to offer individual portrait sessions during the conference for attendees that were interested.

So not only did we cover the 3 days of event photography, we also photographed over 50 individuals on site and helped craft new portrait collections for those interested.

For all of this, we had to take our game to the next level.

The best speakers in the world were on stage and included: Dr. Delatorro McNeal II, Victor Antonio, Jon Gordon, Judson Laipply (from Evolution of Dance fame), Tim Gard and Sylvie di Giusto.

An award ceremony for speakers earning their professional designation that less than 800 people in the world have.

Lifetime achievement awards were given to legendary speakers in front of peers from around the world.

Attendees that were interested in individual portraits for their business and marketing needs could schedule a time with our team during the conference.

We crafted collections that would speak to their marketing and target audience.
