Argente Photographie Events

aloft

2009-01-04T16:19:00.002-08:00

Last week we photographed the aloft hotel grand opening party. What a blast, there were so many favorites I had from this event it was hard to narrow it down. Thanks to Amy who asked us to photograph it! Very cool place, you can stay there with you pet (who I think gets their own bed!) Or you can just go hang out at the bar and drink one of their cool drinks (that someday I hope to have once baby is here).

the DJ (I will find his biz card and get his name right) with our photos behind him (except the second from the left)

funny guys from Meet MPLS (maybe Liz can get me both their names)

Brat Pack Radio - an awesome 80's cover band

PUSS'nBOOTS GoGo Dancers

at the end of the night, it got windy and the screen the 80's videos were playing on blew down allowing The Police to be larger than life on the side of the hotel.

B2B Group Event - Appropriately on the subject of blogging

2008-03-21T11:47:00.000-07:00

Sue Ginsberg of GrowthLynx asked me to photograph her B2B Group's event

held at SALO on Wednesday.

The B2B group is a Business to Business Networking

group through the MPLS Chamber of Commerce.

I wish I could have listened more as I photographed, the speaker Steve Borsch was very interesting. The topic was "Your Stake in the Ground: The Ins and Outs of Effective Blog Marketing". I picked up a few blog sites and tools to use. One thing I remember he said is that he doesn't mind spelling errors. :)
There were many more nice photos of many of the people in attendance, these are mostly people I know and have worked with on projects or committees.

2007 NE Parade

2007-06-25T11:42:00.000-07:00

These are just a few from the many many images I shot during the festivities and parade in NE Mpls. Everyone there was very excited for this local parade. It was a blast to be involved with, but it was kinda wierd when I found myself directly infront of my sponsorship banner during the parade. "Hey that's me!"

It looks as if I may be on the public access airing of the parade...probably a few times.

Some chamber folks hanging out and working the parade.

One of my favoite shots from the moving golf cart with the fish eye lense. Don't worry, I wasn't driving!

Before we left for Vegas I had photographed the Bridal Fair's, at Rosedale Mall, Fashion Show. Here are some of my favs.

2007 Welcom Home Twins Luncheon

2007-04-06T16:19:00.001-07:00

Upon return from Vegas we started the next day with the Welcome Home Twins Lucheon. I was so confused when the alarm was going off that morning, 1st I didn't know where I was then I thought I had to go to school (?! that has been a few years!!), then I finally remembered TWINS! So great to shoot it again for the MPLS Chamber. I made rounds to the tables with the "Big Names" although I missed Cuddy's table and somehow I ran into Mike Redmann while trying to photograph Jeff Cirilo (maybe he ran into me...who knows). Chris was there too, he got the shot of Joe Nathan's table, we should have asked him if he needed some baby photos!
The Twins are on a roll and hope they keep it up, they really seem like some down to earth guys. Happy to have Baseball season started and hoping the TWINS have another great season!

Held at the City Center Marriot DT MPLS

Johan kindly hands over an autographed baseball.

I always think of Joe when I am at Jimmy John's or Diavanni's, he should get some cash or free food for getting that in the national media!

Justin laughs as he answers the question about last year's undershirt

Not quite sure what Cuddy is puzzled about, a magic trick that even has him stumped?

Torii won the centerpeice...

but Bartlett seems suspicious, even though it is clear Torii is holding the winning number.

Cole's Baptism

2007-01-25T09:42:00.000-08:00

This took place at Lord of Life Luthern in Maple Grove. Cole didn't cry but his big brother did when he stuck his hand in the baptismal pool while I was taking photos. Guess it wasn't quite what Drew was expecting.
The baptism is currently available on pictage.

I wanted to take more during the church service, Cole had just been fed and looked really cute and happy, but Chris told me to stop and pay attention to the service.

Intermedia Arts Marriage to S.A.S.E.

Next door to our studio space is Intermedia Arts.
We photographed their event on June 8th. It was their marriage to S.A.S.E (spoken word & performance artists/poets).
Really neat event - very inspiring.
