Washington, DC

Earlier this year, I volunteered some time to photograph the 2020 MWOY Candidates for the National Capital Area Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. In similar fashion to last year, I planned on bringing a mobile lighting setup to their venue. On this occasion, it was at the KPMG offices in downtown Washington, DC.

Overall this was an easy setup considering I have not been to this location previously. Above all, I want to thank the LLS team for their help in loading in the gear. Following the load in, setting up three flashes in the conference room was easy. While there, I was able to make photos of all the candidates there for the kick off.

2020 MWOY Candidates

The Man and Woman of the Year Candidates are embarking on a philanthropic competition to support blood cancer research. Indeed, I have contributed to their mission by making these headshots. When they have their gala dinner to announce the winner of the competition, they display these portraits throughout the venue.

Nestle – Arlington, VA

Earlier this year, I photographed the 2019 MWOY Candidates for the National Capital Area Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Last year, I was part of the photography team that covered their Grand Finale gala at the Marriott Marquis in DC. Although I am already booked for the date of the gala, I was available for their campaign kickoff.

The beautiful headquarters for Nestle was their venue for their candidates to start their competition. Since I have not been to this building before, I arrived extra early with my gear. I set up in a conference room that was a little smaller, but thankfully had blank walls. Rather than set up a backdrop in the room, I just used one of the walls for the background. Additionally, two flashes created some simple, consistent lighting for everyone that came through. Knowing what a spectacle the Grand Finale gala is like; I am excited to hear how this group will fare in raising money for blood cancer research. I wish I could see them announce the winners!

Leukemia and Lymphoma Society

Earlier this month I photographed the 2018 MWOY Grand Finale for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. By all means, this was the largest event I have ever covered! Thankfully, I did not have the responsibility completely on my own. In this case, I was a member of a team. We split the areas correspondingly to make sure all aspects of the evening were covered.

Prior to attending, I had no experience with any of the events from the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. With attention to their mission of raising money for research into blood cancers, I was inspired by the energy in the room! Moreover the amount of money they raised over the campaign together will do amazing work to find needed cancer treatments.
