This year I decided to sell myself at Vlad’s Slave Auction. The service I was offering was to be a photographer and shoot whatever the highest bidder wanted me to. I was purchased by Clan Blue Feather for $150. My assignment was shooting their annual Blue Feather Ball. Instead of just showing up and shooting the event I thought it would be more interesting to actually follow someone throughout the event. To that end I photographed Neil getting ready and then followed him to the ball.

It was a fun event with lots of good food, drink and conversation not to mention a lot of very nice people. I enjoyed shooting this event, especially some of the wonderfully colorful garb!

If someone would like to “purchase” me for an event or group (or just to follow you around) next Pennsic, I will be on the auction block again!

**** I thought I would also let people know that the man who I followed to the ball, Neil, is a victim of Hurricane Katrina. He is alive and well but lost all of his possessions, including all his Pennsic gear. If you would like to assist with donations of any spare gear please contact him directly. ****
