WINTER PARTY SEASON!
The Summer party season is but a distant memory. Everyone was outside, the sun was shining (my God was it shining!) and the bar would have been serving cocktails, glasses of a half decent Provencal Rosé and Aperol Spritzes. The dress code would have been a mixture of white linen, shorts and maybe a Panama hat. But it's Winter now (or Autumn if you want to be pedantic) and Winter parties cook a little bit more different. The dress code will probably be black tie, unless it's Halloween in which case, anything goes. The chaps will probably be drinking Guinness or a nice IPA and the girls will be exploring a nice Pino Grigio or a cheeky New Zealand Sauvignon.
I think I prefer a Winter party, its cold outside but the dance floor is red hot and you're transported to a different place if only for a few hours. This is where party photography becomes a little bit more intimate. It perhaps tells more of a story, about you and your friends. That's what I do. Capture your story so when you wake up the next morning with a fuzzy head that tells you that you had great time with great people, but you don't quite have the full details. Until, an email lands in your inbox, with a link to a gallery filled with images that remind you that crikey yes, we had a great time! And why was so and so wearing that Panama hat and shorts in Winter, the loony?!
If you're having a Winter bash and think you'll need someone discreet to take care of the pictures, then I'm your guy. Drop me a line and tell me about your night.
