The Gift
Guests posed for photographer Andrew French, who used a 1940s vintage tripod camera to create 8-by-10 silver-gelatin portraits. Guests took home their photos in silvery Framatic frames ($16 from Alkit; 212-674-1515). Each was placed in a silver box ($5 from Paper Access; 212-463-7035), tied with silver cord and labeled with a paper name tag rimmed in metal ($7 for a package of 50 from Liberty Display & Supply; 212-929-2777). Black-and-white photos give any event instant glamour; for your own party, take Polaroids and frame them as favors.
