White clothing, carefully arranged tables, flowers, and the Washington, DC setting give this Dîner en Blanc gallery a clear visual identity. I photographed the gathering by looking at those details alongside the people who brought the evening to life.
A setting and the people within it
A wide photograph can introduce the gathering. A portrait can show someone's style and expression. Details of a table or arrangement help explain the care that went into the event. Together, those images create a fuller story than any one frame could tell alone.
My fashion and portrait work informs the way I see an event like this. I look for light, shape, and composition, while staying ready for the interactions happening in front of me.
Room to feel comfortable on camera
When I make a portrait at an event, I want the direction to feel clear and easy to follow. People can try an idea, enjoy the moment, and let me take care of the photograph. That comfortable exchange helps a portrait feel connected to the person.
Photography for your next gathering
Before an event, tell me what you are bringing people together for and where the photographs will be used. We can plan coverage for the setting, important guests, group portraits, and the details your team wants to remember.
Discuss event photography in Washington, DC, the DMV, or your destination.
