1: Don't snog your boss
2: If you snog the boss, don't go home with them
3: If you go home with them, DO NOT let them wake up next to you - get out first.
4: If they wake up next to you - NOW is the time to suggest a payrise!

Oh you mean taking photographs?

erm....well.....the above is my total experience of Xmas parties.

not done one myself but i would reckon

If your selling on the night, wait till there half canned, you might make more sales as they might be more ready to put hand in pocket.

Hmmmmm Keep an eye on your gear....
Don't let them touch it...

Be friendly but melt into the background...

Be ready to DELETE images there and then....

Hi,

What kind of party exactly, kids, adults, office?

Who organised it and was there any brief?

Stage manage most of it and find a good background to take the first pictures of people arriving. If party dress ok, if formal wear then they will want some good pictures of their gear/outfits.

Have a look at the venue and see if their is a suitable place with enough light and decent backdrop at the entrance if they want that covered.

Other than that join in, have a ball, and s*d the pictures!

hic hic :dizzy:

agree with George and you really need a dyesub printer to offer prints on the night otherwise getting orders becomes a nightmare. I think Calumet hire them.
