Featured Photos from Savannah's GATSBY GALA

Take a few moments to check out these beautiful Featured Photos from the sold out 2022 GATSBY GALA by JaWImagesPhoto.com on June 4th, 2022!

It’s always an honor for Markster Con to work with Ghost Coast Distillery in Savannah. Photographer Jazzmin Wilson and her talented lens was a big hit at the event with attendees, all told she shot almost 300 images during the event and was able to work with everyone who was interested.

Everyone looked fabulous and the jazz band sounded amazing. We can’t wait to bring the GATSBY GALA back to Savannah with Saturday, March 25th, 2023 as the (tentative) return date!
