TIFF Red Carpet Looks

One of my favourite months is September. Fall is coming but the weather is still good, pumpkin spice lattes are in season again at Starbucks, and its home to the Toronto International Film Festival. I've been going to the festival now for years to spot celebrities, and catch one (or two) of the movies premiering. I love TIFF for obvious reasons; the world’s biggest stars are in my home city, and Toronto becomes the talk of the world for a bit.

Armani Films of City Frames

This past weekend I went to the Toronto International Film Festival like I have been for the past five years. I saw a couple a movies and some celebrities like I had the years before. The only difference this year was that I actually got to go to a party that they were all at. On September 6th I had the pleasure of being at the Giorgio Armani Films of City Frames party at the CN Tower. How did I get to go you may ask? Well I was hired by a family friend photographer - George Pimentel to edit photographs taken at the party. The majority of the photos I was responsible for editing were the atmosphere and party photos while the other editor was responsible for party and red carpet photos. One of the coolest parts of being present at this party was not only that I was at at a TIFF party hosted by a big fashion house and rubbing elbows with celebrities such as Jessica Chastain, Denzel Washington, and Chloe Grace Moretz while I wasn't in the editing room (360 restaurant),  but I had never in all my 17 years been into the CN Tower! It was amazing being up there for so long having the entire place to myself (for a bit) while watching the sunset from 1 500 up in the air. This weekend was a weekend I will never forget and am so thankful for having the opportunity to have had it.
