The USS Port Royal

Assisting one of the most well-known photographers on the island has so many benefits, including getting to participate in shooting big events like the Christmas party for the USS Port Royal. The sailors in this crew were deployed at sea last Christmas, so they wanted to celebrate together at home this year with family and friends. Located in a ballroom of the Hale Koa Hotel in Waikiki sailors of all ages and rank ate, laughed, celebrated, and won some pretty awesome raffle prizes, including iPads, Macbook Pros, big screen tv's and more! It was a challenging new experience for me to weave throughout the room capturing guests at such a large event but I was so thankful to Bob the Camera Man for trusting me with the task!
