In the midst of the summer wedding rush I got to take a breather with a charity event, the 2010 Annual Butterfly Ball.  Living in LA, seeing people in entertainment is quite common--I gave Harrison Ford his soda at In-n-Out, and I blended a smoothie for Diane Keaton and her daughter at Jamba Juice.  But seeing Hollywood gather together for the Ball was something new for me.  So was meeting Nick Lachey and Ben Stiller and running after Chris Tucker (I had to run to catch up to him as he is much taller than me), as he rushed to the event.  Seth MacFarlane was his usual self, making fun of everyone, and after wikipedia-ing Glee, (I don't really watch TV but I am a fan of Family Guy) I met much of the cast at the Ball.   WireImage took care of most of the celebrity red carpet stuff and I was, for the most part, in charge of photographing all of the sponsors of the event.  In addition to Chrysalis providing me with a shadow who identified all of the celebrities for me and ran through my shot list with me, the bartenders were really helpful too.  They're usually helpful with the drinks, but this time they were also gracious enough to pour drinks with the label showing while I photographed away.
