Dunn Loring Fire Station

Last week, I photographed the ending event for the Tysons Partnership 2018 Shoes4Kids donation drive. Similarly to last year’s event, members and guests arrived at the garage of the Dunn Loring fire station. Even though they did not have as many of the shoes on display this time, they still had plenty of donations from the Tysons community.

2018 Shoes4Kids Donation Drive

Speakers from the Foundation for Fairfax County Public Schools talked about the need for shoes in at-risk families in our county. In reality these donations help to contribute to the success for these students by meeting a basic need. For this reason, it is an important initiative by the Partnership to bring awareness to this issue. Although we are in an affluent County overall, this is a vital resource for some in our community. It is heartening to see the contributions that so many put into making this a success!

Dunn Loring Fire Station 13

Last month, I photographed another event for the Tysons Partnership. On this occasion, they gathered all the shoe donations for their 2017 Shoes4Kids lunch at the Dunn Loring fire station. Since this was my first time at this fire station, I was surprised at the venue! As can be seen in the photos, we were right in the middle of their fire engine garage. It was an impressive space with enormous garage doors to accommodate their vehicles. For photos, this was a perfect setup!

If you have to photograph an event indoors, the large open doors provided all the lighting I needed. In short, this created an open shade lighting scenario. With the dark ceiling overhead, the large openings let strong but diffuse light bounce around the space. Faces, objects, and anything else inside is nicely rendered without much effort! Hopefully all of my future Tysons Partnership events will be as easy to cover.
