Shooting Bollywood Tonight at the India Center

Catrina and I are privileged to be shooting the Bollywood fund-raiser event for the Charleston YWCA at the India Center in South Charleston tonight.  If you saw the Oscar-winning movie Slumdog Millionaire a few years ago, you'll probably recall the dance scene at the end which is a great example of Bollywood: elaborate clothing and beautiful dancing.  We'll be posting pictures from the event over the next few weeks.

Creative Catrina (as I call her), the master of creative details, decided she had to have some henna work done for tonight's event and, of course, did it herself.  When it comes to artistry, Catrina is a natural.  Flower arrangements, make-up, table arrangements, and even henna tattoos.  She can do it all.  That's why she focuses on the detail shots at wedding events.  It's not uncommon for her to help brides get ready, and I've seen her come to the rescue of many brides with last minute emergencies.  For example, one bride didn't want to use her actual bouquet for the bouquet toss, so Catrina whipped up a second bouquet for that using table flowers.  The bride thought it looked as good as her original bouquet.  Catrina brings her creative expertise to every wedding we do, and it shows in the quality of her images.  It might even show up in a few other places where you least expect it.
