Four balls. Two parades. 9,698 images. Portraits, publicity images, newspapers images, proof albums, coffee table books, etc., etc., etc.
Even though it’s only the Sunday before Mardi Gras, the activity is over for us. Now comes the rest of the editing, retouching and album design.
Mardi Gras starts early for us; we started shooting in December. But it never really feels like Mardi Gras until we go to Greenbriar and celebrate with Ms. Frances. This year marks her 107th Mardi Gras.
This year was also the first year we photographed Slidellians. We had a great time at the ball, and we think they’ll really like the images we got. The Chief of Police in a powdered wig was the highlight of the ball.
Happy Mardi Gras, everyone. We’ll be here on Tuesday, working on all these images.
You do a great job!
