Brighton Photography / Event at The Royal Pavilion

Monday, April 19th, 2010

On Saturday evening, Amy and I photographed a gala dinner at the Royal Pavilion for a group of cross-dressers and their wives. The Pavilion was built by the Prince Regent as a party house by the sea but this must have been one of the most unusual parties in its salacious history. The dress code was strictly Regency or Victorian and the standard was incredible. The whole of the Pavilion gardens stopped to watch the ladies arrive before they took their guided tour of the building. We set up some studio lights in the magnificent Music Room and took formal portraits of all the guests in their finery. The red drawing room was set up for the dinner with some great fake candles and gorgeous flowers all supplied by our friends Pollen. It was very elegant, very fun and very Regency. I’m pretty sure the Prince was somewhere in the building having a great time!
