Hollydazzle 2010 | Newport News Event Photography

When I was asked, "Can you climb onto the roof of the Marriott?" firecrackers were going off in my head. Firecrackers of EXCITEMENT! Best seat in the house to take photos?! Sign me up. Stat.

Hollydazzle is seriously Hampton Roads' best kept holiday secret. Here on the Southside a lot of people don't even know about it, and I sadly acknowledge I was one of them until I was contacted by Newport News Parks and Rec to be the photographer.

Like a good little photographer, I did my research to make sure I knew what was getting myself into. And holy moly! What an event! And it's only gotten grander and better with each year. Movies, crafts, games, performers, food, and fireworks.

This is truly a tradition one has to make a tradition.

I may be biased, but the fireworks are really the crowning jewel of the event. Spectacular light and a really cool soundtrack... just stunning. It TOTALLY beats 4th of July. Then again... any event not in 90 degree weather is tops. ;)

I was so humbled I was hired to do this because really, the whole thing couldn't have been better. Great people, great event, and some great experiences.
