Eleventh International Couture Collections

September 20 - DC Fashion Week, Embassy of France: I attended and took photographs at the 10th International Couture Collections back in February of this year, and I came back for the 11th collection. Much of the setup of the place was the same as in February and I had a spot in the photographers area again. The lighting inside seemed a bit darker, so it would prove to be more challenging to get good shots. I did what I could. I had my camera stabilized with a tripod and used a vibration reduction (VR) lens and my ISO was punched up high. I set my flash to try and zoom in enough to reach the runway. When the show started, the excitement began and fashion was in the house.
