What's more fun than getting paid to photograph an outdoor fashion show? Not getting paid to photograph an outdoor fashion show.

Let me explain.

Active Pear granted me permission to shoot at a fashion industry mixer at Rosenthal Winery in Malibu, California. I didn't charge for my work because the organizers had already hired enough photographers for the event. This meant that I didn't have to worry about getting coverage of everyone walking the runway and, as a result, I took chances I wouldn't ordinarily take, especially in lighting conditions that weren't ideal. In short, it was very freeing and great fun.

Featured above is an outfit by ace fashion designer Eric Glennie, modeled by Emily Eddins, who also looked like she was having a lot of fun. Emily is represented by Runway Diamonds.
