Narrative: I was hired to take photos of the event by Andrea Kruszka. I was there for about 5 hours. The first hour I was there I took pictures of the showroom. I used my 24-70 2.8 lens and my lash when I needed to. After that, the contestants pitched their ideas Sharktank style to a group of judges. I used my 24-70 2.8 and 70-200 2.8 lenses for this.
