George Stelluto conducts first Peoria Symphony Orchestra concert

I had the privileged this evening of photographing the Peoria Symphony Orchestra as they opened their season with a new conductor, George Stelluto. The orchestra’s public relations guy was extremely helpful, getting me back stage before the performance to get a shot of the maestro as he was preparing to walk out for his first performance with the orchestra (first and third photos). I absolutely love it when I get this kind of access, and it makes for better photos about 98 percent of the time.
