Before the dance.....

A recent winner of one of my contests had me shoot pics of her son and his date to a high school dance. When I got to the area we had planned to shoot at we were greeted with a mob of teens and their parents shooting pictures with their point and shoots. I had planned on using a single strobe off camera with a beauty dish but it was so crowded I had to go to plan B. I really hadnt thought of a plan B so I just stuck a 550ex on my 5D and grabbed a couple lenses and off we went. My favorite pic from the session was a shot I snapped in between poses using my 200mm 2.8.Probably the best shot of the day...Hope you enjoy the set!
