Sony Brits Aftershow Party 2011

Highlight: Free bar, free food, the only photographer allowed into the party and a celeb packed room to photograph.

Lowlight: The season's colour is black and the inside of Groucho's is black with the occasional mirror - Flash photo hell.
Fill in: Outrageous platforms are in and for someone who can barely stand a pair of comfy trainers on her feet, having to wear a pair of two inch heeled boots for the evening just so I'm not shooting up everyone's nose is pure agony.

So it's a free full bar, endless canapes and an evening with award winning artists and big wigs from the music machine that is The Brits. Unfortunately for me, after shooting all the arrivals outside with the paps and the cheering crowds, then finding all the celebs again inside, getting shots for the sponsors, shots for the organisers and then more shots of everyone else for fear of offending someone I should have shot but didn't shoot first time round there is only time to down a couple of cocktails and a left over mozzarello cheese ball before having to head off home to process the images ready for morning.

For editorial enquiries please contact Hayley Madden or Sony Music UK.

Tech Spec: Nikon D3 - ISO 400, Aperture F5.6 (for optimum sharpness)). WB - Flash (especially important as against white background). Speedlight used but I would like to get a side mount for the flash someday to avoid horrible shadow when turning camera on side. As it was I shot everythign landscape and cropped.. Shutter 1/250 . I over exposed by one stop to compensate for white background.
