The event, held at a private studio, was the most exclusive ticket in town as guests clamoured to get close to the cult photographer.
Also in attendance at the exhibit, presented by A/X Armani Exchange were Tyler‘s girlfriend Francesca, Harry Shum, Jr., and Modern Family‘s Sarah Hyland - who was with boyfriend Matt Prokop - and beauties, Christa B. Allen and Brittany Snow.
