Hi

Before I ask the question, I must apologise for being a bit slack on the site over the last few months. I have recieved a promotion to associate director or a mid-tier accounting firm and unforuntately most of my time has been consumed by this position.

My son has his 6th Birthday party this weekend and we have hired a hall, a dj, and some disco lighting. His entire prep class and other young friends will be invited. My wife has asked to photgraph the party and I need some hints on how this should be shot. Possibly my wife should be shot for organising this thing and relying on my limited skills to capture the moment.

I understand that due to the room being fairly dark I will need to bump up the ISO and use my 430 flash. My main area of confusion is, what should I set the white balance to? also any ideas on composition would be great?

All assistance is greatly appreciated.

I promise to post some photo's post the party and to become more active again on the site.
