Deutsch Photography
Deutsch Photography
New York
Want event photos that pop? That make you want to see more? That tell a story? That's what we do. We LOVE a good story. Capturing that? There's no bigger thrill. Founded in 2006, Deutsch Photography is located in the heart of New York City. We believe every event has a story: a triumph, a celebration of a journey, a mission, a love story. We photograph events from conventions to red carpet galas, industry events to company offsites, weddings, bar/bat mitzvahs and more. What doesn't vary is our editorial, story-driven approach. Part documentarian, part detective, we capture what makes each event unique -- compelling characters, engaging narrative, the plot, and the setting itself. NYC is one of the busiest, most competitive markets in the world. Our business thrives because we are professional and thorough, and work closely with planners to ensure you and your clients get the images (plus some!) that you want. What types of events do you plan and produce? We'd love to work with you.
