I finally got to do some professional work!! I went to the Box Turtle Fashion Show this weekend in Little Rock, AR. I had been attending the Project Runway Watch Parties with my mother-in-law and she happened to casually mention to one of the designers on the show that I was really good with photography. The designer was Korto Momolu. Korto told me that she did not have an official photographer and if I wanted, that she would love for me to take pictures of her show!! Needless to say, I immediately asked my boss if I could take off for this chance. She let me off and I got my camera ready for this new adventure. I asked Darla (mother-in-law) to go with me so she could share in this occasion. Her husband (Jerry) also went with us. Well, we got there very early and waited to see if we could talk to Korto. She never came out from wherever she and her models were hiding, so it was an all-for-one battle on the horrible seating arrangement. I and my family ended up sitting on the ground, facing the stage at a slight angle. It was a hassle for to shoot my pictures because there were some very excited children in front of me, the lighting was absolutly horrible, and some adults were mad because I kept sitting up to get my pictures. Darla set them straight though lol. Even with all those conditions, I managed to get some really good photos. These photos are from other designers that went before Korto's show.
