Opportunity Knocks

The Hubs and I were recently asked to cover some political activity here in the Horse Country.  A new friend who is very politically active remembered me mentioning that we have shot a few things and asked if we would be interested.  Seeing as though we like to push the barriers of our comfort zone and try something new we accepted the invitation.

First, we were the "official GOP photographers" for a gathering of a select group of people got to meet Michele Bachmann.  Next, we went to a luncheon where she spoke to a few hundred people.  And lastly, a rally.  We were the only 2 people allowed to photograph the first two events and then the press got to cover the last event.  It was an interesting experience and we hope to be able to do more as the campaigning progresses.  I would also like to mention that she was stunningly beautiful and thanks to her right hand man we got this blurry picture as a memento.
