Last night I photographed another great event put on by
EF Education! If you have not heard of EF, let me tell you, they are the company to work for! Not only is everyone young and cool, but they throw the greatest parties.
This event however, was not for office employees. EF has it's own
Au Pair division called Cultural Care which matches families with Au Pairs from lots of different countries. Red Hot Salsa night was for the Au Pairs... and over 300 showed!
Best part of the night? $4,000 was raised for charity!
Favorite!
Punch anyone?
EF Au Pairs!
This guy was the DJ, and the dance instructor! I'm not sure if this girl was a professional too, but they were AMAZING to watch! I thought this photo was funny because they look so tangled up with one another! Remind anyone of Dirty Dancing?
Go
HERE to check out his Salsa website!
Friends.
Stephanie, Mia & I!
Our big group shot!
Thanks again to my favorite graphic design girls!

Today I attended a Dress for Success benefit luncheon at the Fairmont Copley Plaza.
Dress for Success is an amazing charity that provides women with the clothes they need to help them get the job of their dreams. Todays luncheon, which was attended by 500 people, raised 260 thousand dollars, and was attended by many of Boston's most familiar faces.
Dress for Success Chair member Carol Fulp, board of director Richard Condon, and Co-Founder Enith Levine.
Happy faces as they arrive.
Boston Globe photographer Bill Brett. I've admired this mans work for years and I finally got to say hi.

There were some high stakes at the table...
And cool shades.

Then we headed outside for the tree lighting. The kids stayed warm with hot chocolate and marshmallows :)

Everyone had a hand in on the tree lighting!
