I am so honored to say that I photographed The Susan G.Komen for the Cure Central Indiana Affiliate's 10th Annual Pink Tie Ball on
Saturday! It was an absolutely amazing
and extremely moving event at the Scottish Rite Cathedral and I was privileged to
be a part of it all, especially as they celebrated their tenth anniversary. The emcees, Scott Swan and Anne Marie Tiernon, emmy
award-winning journalists from WTHR, did an amazing job. They
definitely are fun, professional and passionate for this amazing cause! Well-deserved
awards were delivered to amazing people.
Dr. Kim Wagler Ziner received the Individual Lifetime Achievement Award and
Zeta Tau Alpha’s accepted the Corporate 2013 Lifetime Achievement Award. Peter Dunn (better known as Pete the Planner,
featured regularly on WIBC and other endeavors) shared an extremely impactful
video from a stage 4 breast cancer survivor and encouraged guests to share
their support. Karen Saturday, wife to Jeff
Saturday, spoke from her heart when she shared her tremendously emotional
stories with her personal experiences and those around her that have been
impacted by breast cancer.
The Komen Central Indiana Affiliate launched their new
awareness campaign at the event called the “Pink Tie Guys.” The initiative
involved ten notable men with Indy TIES (and by Ties, they mean connections),
supporting the Komen Mission to save lives and end breast cancer forever by
empowering people, ensuring quality care for all and energizing science to find
a cure. Pink ties were handed out to the
Pink Tie Guys that were able to be there:
Mr. Vince Early, Mr. Gene Huddleson, Mr. Tom Miltner, Mr. Bob Moeder,
John Papageorge, Scott Swan, Amadou Yattassaye and Jeff Saturday. After receiving his Pink Tie, Jeff Saturday tossed the coin with
the help of Pete the Planner, Anne and Scott, while many of the guests played a
super fun “heads or tails” game with the hopes of winning the gorgeous earrings
provided by Distinctive Diamonds. Then
the Komen tradition continued when Breast Cancer Survivors were first onto the
dance floor with the very special song, “I Will Survive” as they danced and
then paraded up near the stage as they were handed white roses and a special swag
bag.
I was extremely honored and loved working around so many amazing
vendor friends . . . Thomas Caterers of Distinction (2013 Diamond Sponsor), Detail+Design(2013 Ruby Sponsor), Scottish Rite Cathedral, Evans AudioVisual, Jim Cerone Wedding Entertainment Director, A Classic Party Rental, Happy Snaps Photo Booth, and the event’s awesome
Pink Tie Ball committee (among many others that I am sure I forgetting!) What an amazing event to be a part of and I
loved every minute! Thank you to the Komen Central Indiana Affiliate for allowing me to photograph the 2013 Pink Tie Ball. There was lots of money was raised for their amazing cause, everyone
had a blast and each one of us definitely left inspired to find a cure! Here are just a few photography highlights
from this spectacular event . . .
