This weekend, Unique Photo hosted a workshop sponsored by our friends at Olympus on location at the 30th Annual Quick Chek NJ Festival of Ballooning, which is one of the most photographed events on the East Coast. The "celebration in the sky" included live music, plenty of photo ops, and of course breathtaking visuals of hot air balloons from around the world! Registrants who participated in our VIP "Behind the Line" workshop learned how to photograph hot air balloons during launch and from the air during their balloon ride! Head Instructor Michael Downey showed VIP participants different techniques and offered insight on shots to look for throughout the festival. Below are some photos taken by our very own Sergio Zayas and Dan Schenker, and be on the lookout for our Festival of Ballooning Video Recap!
