When you’re trusted to deliver flawless livestreams from Capitol Hill, there’s no room for error—and that’s exactly why organizations turn to Nathan Mitchell Photography. Known for capturing and producing some of Washington DC’s most important political, corporate, and non-profit events, owner Nathan brings more than just a camera—he brings solutions.

So when he was asked to livestream New Directions in Tax Policy: Budgetary and Other Challenges of an Increasingly Complex Tax Code at the Kennedy Caucus Room, Nathan knew preparation was everything.

“We had about 100 people in the room and around 100 more watching online. If the internet didn’t hold up, it would’ve impacted the event—and my reputation.”

With no wired ethernet available and vague details about the venue WiFi, Nathan relied on the same approach that’s made him a go-to for DC’s most discerning clients: plan for every scenario.

“I couldn’t get solid info about the network, so I reached out to PopUp WiFi. The livestream operator had used them before and said they were rock solid.”

PopUp WiFi shipped a Slipstream and Workhorse unit, to keep things polished. On the day, while the venue WiFi offered higher speeds, it was PopUp WiFi’s stability that kept the livestream secure.

“We switched between networks a few times. PopUp WiFi gave us exactly what we needed—peace of mind and uptime.”

For a producer like Nathan—whose portfolio includes everything from Senate hearings to corporate galas—reliability isn’t optional.

“If the stream had dropped, I wouldn’t get hired again. The event’s credibility would’ve taken a hit too. PopUp WiFi made sure that didn’t happen. They were easy to deal with, communicated well, and delivered when it counted.”

With a reputation built on professionalism, adaptability, and delivering under pressure, Nathan Mitchell Photography once again ensured that both his client—and his client’s audience—got exactly what they expected: a seamless production, no matter what happened behind the scenes.
