Have Fun while being "Challenged" in a Social Event

Engaging yourself in a social event may always be considered challenging particularly, where most of the visiting people are aiming to take memories of the event through photographs. There are a lot of events worth covering: common events are weddings, birthdays, reunions and many similar more. But, all that I mentioned were family or friends event which is quite far from the kind of social event I am referring to... I am referring to an event such as a promotional convention or exhibit... something like a CAR SHOW event.
These kind of event will give you a lot of chance to push yourself to have the most satisfying photos you can get "no matter what it takes". Although these kind of event was mostly in favor of the male guests, there are still a lot of things well-prepared to be photographed. The challenge mostly comes in only if you try to take photographs of the GIRLS or what they called them as the race queens. Taking their photograph means you need to endure and "fight" your way to the front of many eager and enthusiastic photo takers in commotion wherever a race queen is at sight, and you must patiently wait for your subject model to pose the way you wish they should be. If you're lucky enough, the race queens may think of you as a professional and you might find yourself being favored by them by facing you always while doing a couple of different poses. It might put you on pressure, though, to not let all these "favors" they given you to be put in vain. You may think that, almost 90 percent of the poses they make must be well photographed. Well, don't think like that... It will be almost impossible to be that accurate on photo-shooting... Even a professional photographer takes hundreds of photo but keeps only five to ten of the best ones. So, for me, for these kind of event, just prepare and bring your reliable gear, shoot away and enjoy.
