The Palm, Tysons, Virginia

Last week, I photographed the reception for Luzia opening in Tysons. Following the construction of the tent by the Galleria for the Cirque du Soleil show, the Tysons Partnership held a reception at the Palm. On this occasion, they could not have picked a more perfect afternoon for an outdoor reception! For one thing, it was not very humid, and the shade from the Palm Restaurant building shielded the crowd from any hard sunlight. Overall, this made for an easy assignment for photos.

Afterwards, the group had access to an early showing of ‘Luzia – A Waking Dream of Mexico’. Being that it was so close to the restaurant, the group just walked over. I look forward to seeing the show while it is in Tysons this summer!

2018 River City Ballroom Dancing

Since this was our second time at Veronica and Lee’s studio, we got setup quickly. Although we did not arrive in time for the Friday party, we arrived early on Saturday. Setup was easy for the lighting. Regardless of the rainy weather, it was a fun day to spend inside.

10th Anniversary

Similar to the Baltimore Dancesport Challenge, this was the 10th running of this competition! Even though we have had to send substitutes some years, we are usually here. Since 2010, their 2nd running, we have been here! Congratulations to the Simply Ballroom studio! At this point they have made a regular dance tradition in Virginia.

2018 Easter Egg Hunt

Tysons Corner Center

Last month, I photographed the 2018 Easter Egg Hunt and Fashion Show at Tysons Corner Center. This time, the Fashion Court was again the venue for the event and was set up very early. Treats for kids to ‘hunt’ for was scattered on the floor, and segmented by age. That is, the younger kids would have a chance in a separate section without being trampled by older kids! When the stanchions were released, the hunt too only a few minutes to complete! Lots of Easter eggs, coloring books, and games were cleared out so quickly.

Spring Fashion Show

After the 2018 Easter Egg Hunt was completed, they cleared the floor, and held a Spring fashion show in front of the glass elevators. Being that this was the first time I had covered a fashion show here, I was excited about the new location! With the Turkish Coffee Lady store in front of Lord and Taylor, this would be the new location for these shows. Setting up the flahes and shooting in this larger open space was a different look, but I think it made the models pop off the screen much more!
