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!

It is about time I post about my continuing shoots at Tysons Corner Center. Since 2013, they have had me come out to photograph a number of events, and special occasions. These projects have really kept me practicing my skills. Sometimes, the purpose of the images is to get candid photos of exciting events that they have at the mall showing exciting stores or displays, and the customers and staff interacting. Other times, the photos are more architectural or landscape. They show off the new projects that are going on in the Tysons area. The people that I come in to contact are the best and most exciting from this side of the camera.

Fashion Show

There are fashion shows which show off some of the newest styles for the season. I setup a small lighting setup to make sure that the runway models will pop off the page. It is fun to see the crowd reacting to some of the spontaneous moments during the show, and they really help to tell the story of these productions.

In the summer, they produced some amazing concert performances on their outdoor Plaza area. This place has become a destination for many in Fairfax County during summer weekends. It has been a privilege to photograph the artists in meet and greet events before their performances, and who has a job where you get to listen to loud music while working?

I will have more posts on my shoots at Tysons Corner Center as they always have something going on to get people to their space. The marketing team there has also been some of the nicest, most professional group that ensures these happenings all run smoothly. All the stores and vendors involved are sure to get their shine in each of these instances. I do my best to get great images of all the participants, that will encourage them to keep coming back to Tysons Corner Center for future events. Of course, I hope that they ask me back to cover more of those – it has become one of my favorite places to make photos!

Earlier this month I photographed the 2018 Lunar New Year celebration at Tysons Corner Center. Similarly to last year, I knew that there would be a lot of showcases set up around the event, and some fun shows to see. This time, they held it on the ground floor of Fashion Court. Unlike the Concourse where I last photographed this event, the two floors allowed for more people to view the events from above and below.

During the shows, I was able to move on the escalators to both areas. Since the crowd was attracted to all the sound and colors, it was packed soon after everything started. Surrounding the showcase floor, booths about Chinese culture were setup. I saw my friend Victoria Wu making her Mei Mei Fine Teas. Overall, it was a fun display celebrating the Year of the Dog!
