I wasn&#8217;t really sure what the turnout would be like given the big concert going on a few blocks away in Forsyth Park, but there was a great crowd. Someone had to race off and buy another case of champagne &#8212; always a good sign.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not sure who all the people are in these shots, but I&#8217;d be happy to make some updates for anyone who wants his or her name out there.<\/p>\n<p>The first shot is Mangue Banzima, who runs the great blog <a href=\"http:\/\/www.quistyle.com\/blog\/\" target=\"_blank\">Qui Style in Savannah<\/a>, photos from which have been featured <a href=\"http:\/\/www.quistyle.com\/blog\/press\" target=\"_blank\">a number of times in the New York Times<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>Further down, there&#8217;s a shot of my friends Kevin and Danielle Rose. Danielle was there with some of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.d3metal.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">her line of jewelry<\/a> and she made the cool glasses in several of the shots. Kevin&#8217;s a musician, architect, charter fishing boat captain, and owner of <a href=\"http:\/\/elevatedbasement.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Elevated Basement Studio<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Most of the models in these shots are with <a href=\"http:\/\/web.mac.com\/dsord\/Rise_Models\/RISE.html\" target=\"_blank\">RISE Model Management<\/a> here in Savannah, another of Doug Ordway&#8217;s ventures. <\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a photo that includes opera diva Anitra Warren, who performed a couple of arias before the runway show, and Nicodemus Hammil. <\/p>\n<p>Toward the end of the night, we got a visit from the ecstatic and so-black-as-to-be-unphotographable dog of Blake and Peter Mavrogeorgis. RISE model <a href=\"http:\/\/risemodels.com\/models\/out-of-town-models\/out-of-town-men\/micah-t\/\" target=\"_blank\">Micah Thompson<\/a> is in a couple of those shots too. (I wonder what it would be like to go through life looking like that.)<\/p>\n<p>There was lots of incandescent light and I was as usual shooting without flash, but I decided not to reduce the yellow in any of these shots. I think fashion photography generally tends to be too stark anyway. I would have gotten sharper images with my 50mm lens, but that would have brought me too tight for most of the show.<\/p>\n<p>Click for supersized versions. <\/p>\n<!-- AIPAO5qV4VjV -->\r\n<!-- Cincopa WordPress plugin wp1.161: \/\/www.cincopa.com\/media-platform\/wordpress-plugin.aspx -->\r\n<div id=\"cp_widget_AIPAO5qV4VjV_4067cc1bd908fa995532706c8dbe4f26\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cincopa.com\/media-platform\/runtime\/loading.gif?w=594\" style=\"border:0;\" alt=\"Cincopa WordPress plugin\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/div>\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n\/* PLEASE CHANGE DEFAULT EXCERPT HANDLING TO CLEAN OR FULL (go to your Wordpress Dashboard\/Settings\/Cincopa Options ... *\/\r\n\/\/ cp_load_widget(\"AIPAO5qV4VjV\", \"cp_widget_AIPAO5qV4VjV_4067cc1bd908fa995532706c8dbe4f26\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.billdawers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/DSC_0165.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"3083\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/www.billdawers.com\/2012\/06\/02\/seam-fashion-show-at-savannahs-elegant-brockington-hall\/dsc_0165\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.billdawers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/DSC_0165-e1338654199788.jpg?fit=670%2C928\" data-orig-size=\"670,928\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"DSC_0165\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.billdawers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/DSC_0165-e1338654199788.jpg?fit=216%2C300\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.billdawers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/DSC_0165-e1338654199788.jpg?fit=594%2C823\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.billdawers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/DSC_0165-e1338654199788.jpg?resize=335%2C464\" alt=\"\" title=\"DSC_0165\" width=\"335\" height=\"464\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3083\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"e26b170012445c56d240655bdd03f7bf\" data-index=\"2\" style=\"float: none;
