Event Photography Can Bring Fun and Challenges
Thank you for listening to episode 40 of The Photo Flunky Show about our recent experience with event photography.
We were invited by our friends and fellow photographers Kevin and Sarah Graham of DSW Foto to attend the Orlando Taste of the Nation as working media.
Lee and I wanted to cover the event for one of our other web sites, Orlando Local. One of us could work as the event photographer for our team and the other was technically a guest.
Of course, we worked as a team. I shot with my Nikon D800 DSLR while Lee worked the room with her iPhone.
There's more to this show than just photography, but also some discussion of how we were able to interact with the chefs and staff at the event. Our choice of camera had a distinct impact on how those interactions developed.
Event photography is about telling a story. We cover our plan to get our photos, network with local businesses, and also share more than just photos of food.
