I’ve typically divided each post by era, but I’m doing something different with this one, since I’ve got so many photos from before the show and during the show. We’ll have our intro (Taylor-gating in the parking lots beforehand), a verse for every era, a chorus (Eras Tour vibes in general), and an outro (the parking lot celebrations during the show). Thank you for letting me be a part of your best day.

P.S. If you see yourself and would like your photo, please email me at estorie@outlook.com (specify which image is you!). If you’d like to hire me, please email me, too. Lastly, if you’d like to support a local artist, my venmo is @estorie. If everyone sent me even $20, I could pay my bills for the next month! Thank you!

the intro (Taylor-gating)
“You play stupid games, you win stupid prizes.” Thsi group of gals was THE most fun. They had games with prizes, a cocktail menu, Taylor’s cookie recipe, and banners. 10/10 Eras Tour parking lot setup.
An interlude: Karaoke
Some folks set up a karaoke station by one of the gates and when I say I am obsessed! It was such a pure moment, girlies singing, other folks walking by and dancing and singing along. The joy it brought was tangible, beautiful, singable.

These two took off running shortly after I took this photo; we watched them, curious, and saw them run up the hill and into the venue—our whole section internally cheering for their success!
long live.
