Event Photos - Toronto International Film Festival Mongrel Media Party

On September 12th & 13th I had the opportunity to shoot photos for the Mongrel Media Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) party held at Campbell House. The event featured the actors and actresses from many of Mongrel Media's films, notable Deepta Mehta's Beeba Boys and Pan Nalin's Angry Indian Goddesses.

I put my Sony A7ii with the 35mm Carl Zeiss lens to the test in mostly low light conditions. I did not use a flash to keep a more street and less formal feel.  Some photos from the event below.
