15th Offcenter Folk Art Festival 2017 Albuquerque New Mexico

15th Offcenter Folk Art Festival 2017 Albuquerque New Mexico

In my brief time living in Albuquerque, New Mexico I have already learned that Robinson Park between the downtown and old town areas of the city is a very active location for events.  The 15th Annual Offcenter Folk Art Festival was my second event there in the past few months.  It was a lively and colorful event great for candid photos like the one above.

Octoberfest 2017 Eurocars Albuquerque New Mexico

Octoberfest 2017 Eurocars Albuquerque New Mexico

I woke up this morning and found out there was a car show going on just a few minutes down the road from me at the Albuquerque International Support Airport.  It even had free admissions so I packed up my Nikon D750 with Tamron 15-30mm lens attached and headed down Gibson Blvd SE.  This show was the Eurocars version, so of course only European cars were featured, which is fine with me!  Sadly though, no Aston Martins.

FUSE Makerspace Grand Opening in Albuquerque New Mexico with Mayor Berry

FUSE Makerspace Grand Opening in Albuquerque New Mexico with Mayor Berry

I have experienced since 2009 something I did not know about being a photographer, that I would get into very cool events I would not normally attend as a civilian.  This is certainly true when being hired by clients for exclusive events, but equally true for attending networking events, ribbon cuttings and grand openings like this one in Albuquerque, New Mexico for FUSE Makerspace which was attended by the mayor even!

Kona Ice at Sprint Promotional Event

Kona Ice at Sprint Promotional Event

I was hired by Modern Promos out of Minnesota to photograph an event here in Albuquerque, New Mexico.  Sprint was offering customers a free Kona Ice frozen treat.  I arrived in the middle of the afternoon desert heat and sun to meet Franky in the Kona Ice truck wondering if anyone would show up on such a Friday afternoon?  After a slow start, some people did start to come and some were very excited as you can see above!

Remax Rio Rancho Ribbon Cutting

Remax Rio Rancho Ribbon Cutting

The Remax ribbon cutting event in Rio Rancho was the first event I attended as an official member of the ABQWest Chamber of Commerce and the first to photograph with my awesome new Tamron 15-30mm f/2.8 VC lens!  I needed that ultra-wide lens to get everyone in frame in that tight space (had not much room to back up myself).  Then it's just timing the ribbon cutting just right!

Naples Motorfest 2016 Florida Exotic Car Event

Naples Motorfest 2016 Florida Exotic Car Event

Since coming to SW Florida, I have not had a chance to attend a supercar event in over a year.  There are not as many here as there were in Tampa Bay.  Fortunately, Naples Motorfest 2016 was on a Saturday morning I had free and Dona of Luxe Fashion Group once again allowed me to attend and photograph the exotic cars on display.  This allowed me to see for the first time the Lamborghini Aventador SV (above) in a standout blue color with SV graphics on the rear quarterpanel.  This car had tremendous presence and was drawing the most attention of any supercar there by far.
