Detroit, MI – Getty Images hired Moon Kochis to document the Metro Detroit and Southeast Michigan Chapter of Junior Diabetes Research Foundation‘s Promise Ball Gala, a charity fundraiser held at the MGM Grand Casino in downtown Detroit. The event which raises funds and awareness for diabetes research, raised more than $2 million, making it one of the largest of its kind in the nation for JDRF.
