Each year, the Triangle chapter of the Nationa Association for Catering and Events hosts an awards gala to celebrate the hard work of catering and event professionals from all over the state of NC
This year, the gala was over-the-top gorgeous as usual, with creative contributions by Some of the best in the business. Theresa Jatcko brought together a stellar team to create an unforgettable experience for those in attendance. Fresh Affairs transformed the ballroom with its floral design. Capitol Production Group made the space look, feel, and sound like a top-level production with their staging, theatrical lighting, and sound, and let's not forget that huge LED wall behind the stage. It was phenomenal!
All that, and our team had the privilege of creating photos of it all.
The most fun part for James was hanging out backstage on our portrait set where he photographed each winner with their crystal award.
