About
GANDES Digital Media is a boutique studio based in New York's Hudson Valley, working with restaurants, hotels, and consumer brands on photography, social content, and marketing — with PR support when a project calls for it.
Genesis Palmero started her career in the U.S., then spent two years living and working across Europe and Southeast Asia before landing in Sydney, Australia, where she spent two years building relationships with hospitality and lifestyle brands. She's since moved back to the U.S. and is now based in the Hudson Valley, taking on new clients across the country while still supporting a handful of longtime partners in Sydney.
Over the past eight years, her work has helped restaurants book out during their busiest weeks, gotten new venues fully reserved within weeks of opening, and given brands a photo and video library they actually use — on social, on their site, in campaigns.
Past and current clients include 25hours Hotels, Conrad, Hilton, Legends Tavern & Grille, Pasture of Kirribilli, and Pasture of Balmoral, among others..
