Let Them Eat Cake!

Birthday celebrations are fun but sometimes lighting situations are a difficult challenges to master. With guests crowded into a too small of a venue and little guests running into every shot was more then a challenge...it was total chaos!

Trying to find a clean shot with decent lighting was difficult. Unfortunately I was totally overwhelmed by all the challenges I encountered.

My lesson from this experience is
Do your homework! Be EXTRA  EXTRA Early! Even though I was early...so were some of the guests. Visit the venue prior to the event & evaluate the environment for best lens choices and do a pre-workup shoot and check list.

All in all it was a great party and our little princess turned ONE! Happy Birthday darling AVA ELISE...
