Photographer Emil Ravelo captured the second half of the evening at our first photography art show "SUSPEND REVISITED" held at Mauro's Cafe on Wednesday (Aug 20) presented by The Nameless Brand with Justin Bobby. (View photos from the evening by Christy J Kim.) Ravelo captured another dimension to "SUSPEND REVISITED," with guests enjoying dinner amongst friends and creative colleagues. French pastry chef Basile Bouhadida invited friends to celebrate his birthday as well at the event (and his chocolate mousse cake desert was amazing to end the evening!). After dinner, around midnight, we invited our special guest performer Blaison Maven to perform for restaurant patrons – with photography from myself, Kayla Reefer, and Jonathan Tate on display in the background.
