On July 19th I had my first Quinceañera client. I was excited and nervous because I accepted to take it on alone.
Ruby is a very dear cousin’s daughter and I made sure to plan for everything. All my gear was checked and charged, I took a ladder for some of the outdoors shots and I made sure to have cold water and snacks on hand. I learned how to deal with large groups of people that day. I posed them and ordered them around and was a bit more assertive than usual. I was the only official shooter, but my assistants helped me out with extra cameras all over the place and in the end I ended up with over 1800 photographs. Yikes! It was great to have every angle covered, but it was a tremendous amount of work to try to get through. I don’t recommend anyone do this at every event, but if you want insurance, grab some capable assistants and GET THAT SHOT! Also, you have the benefit of having some pictures taken of you in action.
