Manassas VA

We'll be meeting on December 12 around 12:30 p.m. at Sudley Manor House in Manassas, VA. There are approximately 75 residents of the assisted living home, and December 12 also happens to be their open house holiday party (which runs 1 30 to 3 30 that day) so the portraits will most likely be family portraits, with some individuals. Estimates suggest about 20 of the 75 residents will have family members present.

Feel free to reply here or email me directly if you have any questions.

After meeting with them, we should have enough room for a minimum of 2 stations, maybe a 3rd, with room to print and keep people moving through.

Thank you!

All my behind the scenes photos are actually Jenny's photos (didn't take anything but test shots and actual subject shots), and I know that Bruce copied them all before we left. I put lots of them on my FaceBook page (here I am!: http://www.facebook.com/sdawncasey) and I also wrote up a short post about what the day was like on my blog: http://caseymultimedia.com/blog/help-portrait-manassas-121209

I sent an email to Bruce asking for an approximate number of people photographed since he has the laptop with all the images :-) There's also the option for everyone to upload their "behind the scenes" images, so if you want to, here's the info:

Behind-the-scenes Video & Picts
If you're ready to submit your behind the scenes videos and pictures, and group picts, please upload them to our FTP server:
ftp.help-portrait.com
user: video
pw: helpportrait
Folder Format: City-State-Country

*Please don't forget that you are not allowed to publicly post direct pictures of your subjects. We need to respect their privacy.

I looked for some of you on Facebook and the names may have had several results and no picture, so feel free to look me up if you like. I added those I could find :-)

Love the pictures! I too was so surprised how smoothly things went and how special the pictures turned out. It certainly put the spirit of Christmas in my heart.

Hey Guys and Gals,

It was wonderful meeting all of you today! Robert, thank you for organizing this event and for bringing it all together.

I have posted the group photos as well as other candids that I shot during the day at: http://www.billgercken.com/export/help-portrait/

Most of these are the originals and are at the full resolution so they are big... The group photos are near the end of the list. I also created a zip file that contains all of the photos if you want to grab them.

I hope that you all have happy holidays!

Kind Regards,
-bill

YOU ALL ARE AWESOME!

Just had to get that out there. Everyone was a huge help and I can't see how today would have turned out any better. I was nervous this morning, not sure how everything would go. Even in an ideal world, it wouldn't have been as good as it was, and everyone deserves a huge pat on the back.

We knocked one out of the park today, and we did it together as a team. :-)

I'll look for you all on Facebook, feel free to look me up as well (you won't find anyone else with my name on there ! ;-)

If you have any shots you would like to e-mail me (Bill, please send the group shots!), my e-mail is robert@rekphoto.com

Thanks again, hope everyone has a happy and safe holiday!
