Rockettes
December 11th, 2009
I’m shooting a lot of events right now – it’s the season for holiday parties, charity auctions, etc – and in truth it’s been the full range of experiences. Some are great, with good people, good causes, and interesting things to photograph, while others as you might expect are just a bunch of party pics, and some are just plain different (ask me some time about the holiday party for the pawn shop chain). Yesterday morning was another one of those days, a morning breakfast event for 300 people at the convention center. Well, as it turned out, a really fun event to shoot – not only was the crowd good (they were hotel and tourism people so everyone was gracious for the cameras) but the entertainment for the morning included the real deal Radio City Rockettes, in town from New York for the next couple of weeks and performing at the Paramount. How many times in your life will you get a chance to shoot the Rockettes in Santa outfits? Probably one. This was kinda cool.
