Photographing a fashion show

I was very happy to photograph a fashion show at Christian Ciriano’s Westport store. The show was produced to raise money for Pink aid which raises money for families battling breast cancer. I met a few photographers their who were shooting for various media companies, they were very fun to talk to. And a big surprise for me was Whoopi Goldberg and Rosie Perez were in the audience. I sat next to Rosie at a premier of a Dustin Hoffman’s film, but she did not remember me.

I caught Whoopi’s eye. (with Rosie Perez).

DJ April Larken was amazing! She kept the party running.

I love the beginning of a shoot, people greeting each other is so much fun.

The ‘grab” shots are always my favorites.

Whats a party without these ladies? ( Sholeh Janati ).

50th Westport Fine Arts Festival

I photographed the 50th anniversary Westport Fine Arts Festival and what a great turnout it was. I enjoy shooting candids but I also like to fly my drone to show how many people were at the festival. Westport’s Miggs Burroughs was there and he was working with Jana Iriejo on an installation piece about Blue Whales and how they are becoming extinct.

Dogs were allowed but watch-out, the pavement is very very hot.

The mural was to stay until the rain washes it away……

Have you seen this guy around? He is everywhere!

So many great works of art.

Great crowds too!
