TNX 2016 - In other words, Teiki and Xavier…Birthday Party….To the MAX! Not only are Teiki and Xavier best friends (and business partners) but they also have the same birthday! For the year of 2016, their theme was “Ginger Apocalypse”. Teiki has a head full of ginger hair, so to commemorate his 30th, they crafted a lore-filled story where the apocalypse occurred, and the only people to survive (thanks to their ginger genetics) were 50 of Teiki and Xavier’s closest friends.
Traveling by way of a fun filled party bus, we hit up Treasure Island, Twin Peaks, the Embarcadero, and a secret location where the survivors could refuel and leave their mark on a wall for spray painting. There was even a prize for the best dressed. This is by far the most elaborate party I have ever photographed! It was a little more than my Canon eos 60D could handle at the time in some parts, but it was super successful when you consider I was photographing drunk folks trying to stand and dance in a low lit party bus on it’s way up and down winding San Francisco hills. Party hard!
