Barns of Wolf Trap

Lessons Learned was the newest TEDxTysons salon event. Prior to the night of the event, I visited the space with other volunteers. Since I had never been to the Barns of Wolf Trap before, this was a good move. As a venue, this was a particularly appropriate site for their talks. Not only do they have a fully-equipped stage, but they have a food and reception area just outside the auditorium.

Speakers – Lessons Learned – TEDxTysons

When the show started, it was immediately apparent that this was stage ready for productions. Stage lighting and perfect acoustics elevated the TEDx experience for the audience. In contrast to the other venues that were in corporate locations, this felt like a production in a cinema. The presenters talked about learning from mistakes, overcoming failures, and enduring loss. In general, the speakers really engaged through authentic stories, inspiring outcomes, and a little humor! Check the TEDxTysons site for the videos that will be released soon.

Tysons Chamber

Last month, I photographed the Tysons Chamber 2017 Breakfast Near Tiffanys event. On this occasion the Woman’s Leadership Committee held this networking meeting at Chef Geoff’s in Tysons. Being that it is next to the Tiffany’s location, the title was perfect!

Although this is a new event from other’s that the Chamber produces, it had a nice friendly feeling. The room was packed, so I tried to work as quiet as I could all things considered. Due to the full tables, and scant room to move, I did not stay there for the speakers. Besides being a distraction, I did not want my shutter to take away from the presentation.

In addition to the business presentations, breakfast, and networking, this was about shopping! Chef Geoff’s is located adjacent to the beautiful Tiffany’s jewelry store. Many of the attendees took advantage of their early opening to continue the event there.

McLean Hilton, Tysons, VA

This week I covered ‘Key Trends and Transformation Projects in Tysons’ at the McLean Hilton. In light of their overarching presence in the area, I was excited for the opportunity to work with them. This event had a distinguished panel of speakers. For this reason, the event was well attended, and the ballroom packed for the presentations.

The Hilton McLean is of course a familiar venue for me to photograph. Similarly, I was familiar with many faces that attended the meeting. It was helpful since I was anxious to be photographing for a new client. While everyone was there to network and meet stakeholders in Tysons, this was a very friendly crowd.

Thanks to Meghan Trossen, Director of Programs and Partnerships, who hired me for this assignment! Although she had a lot of responsibilities during the event, she was especially helpful to make sure I had what I needed. We met at a TEDxTysons barbecue, and I suppose she liked my work for their events. Hopefully, we can work on even more projects in the future. The Tysons Partnership is making Tysons into the next great city, and I want to photograph the changes!
