AN EVENING WITH WOMEN 2010

This past Saturday I photographed An Evening With Women for the L.A. Gay & Lesbian Center. I had the best view in the house - front of the stage - for live performances from Heart, Pink, Linda Perry, Sarah Silverman, and Gina Gershon, plus an appearance by Renee Zellweger. I photographed the entire evening with my dreamy and tack sharp Nikon 85mm f/1.4 lens.

Pink being a badass - making the most of her props - the Vespa, a wine glass, and cigarette smoke. My favorite photo from the night.

I love Pink's new natural look - she's so beautiful and talented.

Hostess Gina Gershon. She performed two songs, What's New Pussycat and Is That All There Is?

I think this is a move leftover from the Goddess routine in Showgirls

Sarah Silverman - possibly the funniest Jewess on the planet.

Gina recalling another Showgirls scene (remember Cristal wanting a manicure from Nomi before deciding she's too old for the "whorey look"
