Mphasis Client Summit Event at the Manhattan Classic Car Club

Last month, I had the incredible opportunity to photograph a one-of-a-kind tech conference hosted at the Classic Car Club Manhattan at Pier 76, sponsored by Mphasis, the official digital partner of the Moneygram Hass Formula 1 racing team. The speakers at this client summit explored how artificial intelligence and cutting-edge technology are revolutionizing the sport. From AI-driven race strategies to data analytics that optimize car performance by fractions of a second, the discussions highlighted Formula 1’s role as a leader in technological innovation.

The venue itself added to the event’s prestige, with its sleek automotive showroom and waterfront views creating the perfect backdrop. Attendees enjoyed catering, an open bar, and a step-and-repeat station where I photographed guests alongside race car drivers. Capturing these moments—whether it was candid networking or posed shots with the drivers—was exciting. If you’re planning an event that blends innovation, luxury, and excitement, let’s work together to create images that tell your story and leave a lasting impression.

Here are some of my favorite images from this shoot (click/tap to view full size and un-cropped):
