This is the weekend! We are ready to photograph the Arthur Murray Summer Showcase this Sunday, June 1. It does not seem that long since our last ballroom dance event. It has been only 2 weeks since we were on the sidelines at the dance floor! Additionally, it has also been a short time since the Spring Freestyles. We have been so busy, the time just flew!

We know that the dancers have been hard at work in the studios with their coaches and instructors to get their routines ready for the judges. I am personally excited about hearing some great music to go along with these routines! With the opportunity to choose your own music to go along with the choreography, it is a great time to find some new music to add to your practice playlist. I will have my iPhone on me with the music identification app on the ready!
Even though you have been working for many weeks, maybe months for these routines, we know that there can be some hiccups. In the photos, if you hide it well, and continue to have a good time, it will still be a success! The judges know the amount of time you put into these, and a little slip will not sink your score. Even the best dancers do not hit all their lines every time – I photograph a lot of these, and I have seen it firsthand. If they continue and finish like nothing happened, it will almost be a nonfactor in how the judges score. Showcase, like all the other events, should be a fun day to come together with your dance friends to catch up, show off some new steps in your social dancing, and inspire others to dance better at the next event. I’ll be there to hopefully catch some nice images! The photos will be posted at the proofing site by the following weekend at the latest.
