Conferences & National Sales Meetings
Keynotes, general sessions, breakouts and awards nights. Big rooms, high stakes, zero missed moments.
Incentive Trips & President's Club
Your top performers earned it. We make sure the trip looks as good as it felt, so next year's winners want to qualify.
Galas & Awards Nights
The big night deserves more than a few stage shots. Every winner, every toast, every dressed-up table.
Event Décor & Design
Planners, designers and DMCs: your best work deserves portfolio images, shot before the guests walk in.
VIP & Private Events
Executive-level, discreet and NDA-signed. You get the moments without anyone noticing the camera.
Headshots & Personal Branding
An on-site studio for your people. Leadership, sales teams and personal brands, lit right and retouched clean.
Sports & Entertainment
Youth to pro. Game day, media day, courtside celebrities and the stage. Fast, clean and ready for social.
Live art, video (2027) and family sessions
Body paint with featured artist Luca Paganico, event video launching in 2027, and relaxed golden-hour family photos.

You'll see me working the room, and you'll never see me in the way.
Pittsburgh born, Vegas based. Before photography, Tom was a Paul Mitchell platform artist, working stages around the world. That's where he learned to read a room, move fast and make people look their best.
Since then he has photographed conferences, incentive trips, pro sports and the people who make them happen, from Vegas ballrooms to Rome, Paris and Nevis.
One call covers the whole program
For big programs, BTP brings second photographers and an on-site editor from a Las Vegas crew Tom works with regularly. No flying in a team, no travel costs for local shows.
Organized by session
Online gallery with full-resolution downloads in 5 business days, sorted by day and session. Rush and same-day selects available.
Photos on their phones, during the event
With SpotMyPhotos, guests scan a selfie and get their own photos in a branded gallery while the event is still going.
Photographing the big Vegas rooms
Caesars Forum
Caesars Forum is built for big single-brand meetings. Its pillarless ballrooms give photographers something rare in Vegas: clean, unobstructed sightlines from the back of the room to the stage.
The Venetian Expo & Venetian Resort
The Venetian Expo is one of the largest meeting complexes on the Strip, and the resort around it gives you some of the most recognizable backdrops in Las Vegas without leaving the property.
Mandalay Bay Convention Center
Mandalay Bay pairs one of the largest convention centers in Las Vegas with some of its most photogenic special-event spaces, from a beach to an aquarium ballroom.
MGM Grand Conference Center
MGM Grand's conference center hosts a steady stream of national sales meetings and corporate programs, and its newer expansion gives photographers something Vegas ballrooms usually lack: daylight.
Resorts World Las Vegas
Resorts World is one of the newest resort builds on the Strip, and it photographs like it: modern finishes, big LED surfaces and a theatre built for real production.
Fontainebleau Las Vegas
Fontainebleau opened in December 2023 as the newest luxury convention build in Las Vegas. Its clean, bright design and signature bowtie motif give events a ready-made branded backdrop.
