Arrow "E" is for Entrepreneur

We had a luncheon yesterday showcasing a new program through our center. I took some pictures at the event, and a few before all the guests arrived. I loved the red/white/black decor. Just thought I'd share a few. Always interested in your thoughts and comments. Thanks for looking!

E Spotlight
Took this using the book light gift given to attending guests.

The Setting 4
The roses they had on the serving tables were beautiful.

Studio Doors-Tripped Out
This is actually a heavily processed version of this; taken through the glass doors looking into the atrium where the tables were decorated for lunch.

The Setting 2
Trying to find the best angle on the table settings. This one is probably my favorite.

Have a great day!

What a lovely piece of work aimee. Love the lighting in the first one. Gorgeous roses in the second. Great work with the third one. ( I saw the original) Love the way you coloured it up and yes, it was a great angle for the place setting. Hope the luncheon went well. Thanks for sharing with us.

Jake.

Thanks, Kimi! I was really happy with the way the first one turned out; I think they are going to use it on their website.

Hayward, thank you so much. You're right, I've been lurking much more than I've been participating lately, only because my time has been somewhat limited. I'm trying to get back in the game, and get those creative juices flowing again. Thanks again for your comments...I'll try not to be a stranger.

Thank for your kind words, Jake; and for checking out the original of the third one. The luncheon did go well, thanks. I feel very fortunate that despite the fact that my job is very business-oriented, everyone I work with is supportive of my love for photography. Well, that, and I let them use the ones they like to promote our office.

Hi Aimee. I tried to view your photos through the eyes of an attendee. What I saw was professional from A to Z. And I think anyone attending your event would say that your photos do a good job of distilling the experience to a few images. Very nicely done!

Vinam and Lindy, I just wanted to say thank you so much for your kind words.

I really liked the black and red, as well, Vin; great colors to photograph and I'd be willing to bet an excellent choice for a Harley as well!

And, Lindy, thank you so much! I had a few people at work tell me they looked professional. I was pretty proud of that. Though, coming from you is an even bigger compliment. Thank you.
