Any time I get a call from Erin Halley Productions, I know I’m in for an amazing assignment. This past November, I got the call to photography the International Crisis Group’s annual award ceremony, and this year the event would be featuring both former-President Bill Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. The security was tight and I was going to be the only photographer allowed to roam the floor. These are the types of high-stress, over-the-top gigs I love to shoot when I’m not working weddings. Oddly enough this was also the third time I was photographing Bill Clinton in the space of three years, which is absolutely crazy and awesome. Erin Halley put on a stunning production at Chelsea Piers featuring a music performance by Sara McLaughlin and a wonderful array of speeches and awards presentations MC’d by the one and only Wolf Blitzer. A big thank you to Alexander Meseguer for second shooting and capturing some amazing candid photos.
