The Gabello Studios Holiday Throw Down 2012

January 11, 2013 by HughE Dillon 2 Comments

As we come to the end of our 2012 Holiday Parties, I’ve saved the best for last, the Gabello Studios shindig. This was one of those parties that the guests will remember forever, trust me I’m halfway to forever and I think I’m an expert on these things. 

On a dark dessert highway cool wind in your, hey what’s up with that car using this ally as a short cut.

Our hosts Mr and Mrs Gabello, or as I like to call them Krista and Chris. I think they both like that Chris/Kris name. Such a great couple, and wonder to their friends. I love the Gabello sense of humor with the decor of the night.

 
Christie Honigman, The Honigman Group and Katie English, Katie English PR (I introduced these two back in July and they are BFF’s now.)
 

 Ian Michael Crumm and Michele Conron (Thanks to the Skai Blue Media peeps who worked behind the scenes yesterday to secure me liquor for the last party celebrating my 5th anniversary on Wed at Replica Creative 33 s 18th Street. 6PM to 8PM. 5 years retrospective of my photos. Come please.)

Looks like Santa’s elves have put a smile on  Reid Rosenthal

There must have been at least 100 people in attendance. Some were chatting upstairs, while the rest of us hung downstairs and danced at the Gabello Studio. For me there was a lot of memories in this room. I was fortunate enough to shoot the behind the scenes of some of Chris’ photo shoots, especially for Where Magazine, or another celebrity shot.

What a view, definitely one that gets the creative juices flowing.
