Photographing New Fashion Trends Live at Runway Shows

Photographing New Fashion Trends Live at Runway Shows

At big fashion events like the New York Fashion Week, you usually see the photographers and videographers representing several press and media groups, all cramped in the booth facing the runways. Most have accessory bags stuffed with cameras, tripods, flash, etc. with them, and the work seems very stressful to the casual observer.

But some of these photographers still take the time to wear new fashion trends and look composed in the middle of what appears to be utter chaos. Katy Winn of Getty Images and The AP is one such photographer, who is regularly sighted at jobs in her six-inch platform heels and trendy outfits. She says that she does it out of respect for the fashionistas at the shows. Winn always carries two cameras to the shows, and each one weighs 10 pounds. This is in addition to her bag weighed down with photo equipment, but since everything she carries is a necessity so she just has learned to adapt to the weight.
