Our first job upon coming back was a really fun one too, so we wanted to share. One of our first clients, and a very good friend, Pat Kilburg, came in to get some headshots. The shots came out great and we're all very pleased with the outcome. But another fun part of the job was learning about what she needed the shots for.
So it turns out that Pat is involved in a program for artists throughout the United States called "ART in Embassies". The program's mission is to take original works of art from artists in the states, and to display it in one of about 180 American diplomatic residences worldwide. They take the program very seriously, and take extreme care with every piece of artwork that they place in a residence, which is always really cool to hear about. They've got residences in so many places in the world, some that we've never even heard of!
Our job was to provide Pat with a headshot that the organization needs, and we also got to photograph her beautiful tapestry/fabric art that will soon be hanging in an embassy residence in another country for 2.5-3 years! We got to hear all about the process, and the way everything works and are proud to have had some part in the process with Pat.
Congratulations, Pat, on this awesome opportunity!! You can see more of Pat's work in various mediums at her website HERE.
