As you may have heard, Choke Cherry has recently moved out of state (like, just last week!); because of this we've had no way to set up test shots in advance this year and so we don't have a way to let you preview the scene. But you've known us for the past 12 years of doing this fundraiser and you know that we provide AMAZING scenes. This year will be no different! We have a green backdrop with lighted birch trees and a light brown wood floor. It's going to be amazing and we know you trust us to bring you the best even without seeing test shots, but we wanted to mention this so you could keep this in mind when booking.
