Guests of award winning hedge fund giant Ayaltis AG from Switzerland and the foremost international collector of Chinese contemporary art, Mr Uli Sigg, enjoyed an intimate VIP dinner at Mandarin Oriental.  I was commissioned as the exclusive photographer for this prestigious event.

The evening began with a cocktail reception and ended with the signature dessert of Chef Uwe’s Michelin starred kitchen.  As guests mingled, a sultry harp player brought in specially for the event provided a beautiful musical experience.  Furthermore, there was a frenzy when Mr Sigg entered the room with a video team from europe, but all guests had a chance to meet and greet the iconic collector by the end of the night.
