Red Bat Photography is very proud to be the official photographer for Santa Cruz NEXT, a local organization whose mission includes “actively promoting access to and development of economic, social and cultural opportunities” and “connecting Santa Cruz’s next generation of residents to the community at large” (I got those phrases from their newly revamped website).

Recently (well, actually, two months ago, but time has a different meaning during WEDDING SEASON), this organization had a lil’ shindig at the Del Mar Theater. People gathered to chat, network, enjoy great deals on delicious beer and kombucha cocktails, and watch the premier of FOOD, Inc. The Red Bats were there to shoot the participants. Here are a few photos from that evening. You can visit the Santa Cruz NEXT site to read their post about it and see more photos.
