Ladies VIP Dinner at MM La Fleur, Upper East Side
I recently had the pleasure of capturing an exclusive VIP dinner at M.M.LaFleur's newly opened Upper East Side store on Madison Avenue. The intimate gathering included 20 influential women who are friends of the brand and personal friends of the co-founders.
My shot list included capturing the candid interactions during the cocktail hour, the beautifully decorated dinner table before everyone sat down, and the moment everyone was invited to take their seats. I also captured shots of the Founder & CEO Sarah leading a toast and conversations over the food. In addition, there was a jacket station set up where the Co-Founder Miyako personally styled interested attendees.
It was an honor to capture such an intimate and exclusive event. The M.M.LaFleur brand is known for its unique and stylish clothing options for women, and this event truly embodied the brand's ethos. The attendees were all accomplished women who were passionate about fashion and style, and it was an amazing experience to capture their energy and enthusiasm.
Here are some of my favorite images from this session (click/tap to view full size and un-cropped):
