2009 Ballroom Dance

Dancing at an Arthur Murray Showcase event in Tysons, VA

It was an amazing photography year for me on the ballroom dance floor! I was able to go to exotic places (Philadelphia) to familiar venues to capture the most dynamic, and best images so far. The last event of the year was the Arthur Murray Fall Showcase. For the last event, we got some great help from behind the camera, so we could actually step out on the floor ourselves. It was nerve-racking, and scary to get back out there, but we had a great time. Plus we had some great shots of us as a bonus! Thanks to everyone who helped us setup and photograph these events, and of course, thanks to everyone who has supported my little enterprise by purchasing pictures. I can’t wait to see everyone again in 2010!

Mary and Michael

It was a beautiful ceremony and celebration at the Fair Oaks Marriott for Mary and Michael. Family, friends gathered to witness their union from the ketubah signing to the vows under the chuppah in the spacious atrium. The celebration was complete with a full brunch and a healthy wedding cake.

On this occasion, the Fair Oaks Marriott has a beautiful interior space for wedding ceremonies. With a very tall atrium, the overhead light was beautiful on all the faces. Undeniably, this is a great option is you want to have an outdoor – feeling ceremony. However, you are worried about our humid summers, or unpredictable rains.

Thanks especially to Mary and Michael for having me cover their wedding ceremony. They were in particular very accommodating to the friends and family that traveled to celebrate with them. Congratulations to you both!

If you are planning an upcoming wedding, please use this post to illustrate what I can do for you. Planning your photos is very different compared to many other vendors for your wedding. Firstly, you will be spending a lot more time with your photographer. Be sure that your personalities mesh as you will be spending a lot of time together on a stressful day!
