The photos from last weekend’s 2017 River City Ballroom Dance Competition are available at the TimeLine Media proofing site! It has already been a year since the last time we went south for our annual visit. Veronica and Lee have a beautiful studio in Richmond, Virginia. Their event was held there on Saturday. I have edited and sorted the photos by leader’s number. Here is the link to the 4000+ photos from the event:

Although we have been covering their event for years, this is the first time we have been to their studio! While they have one large practice ballroom at the entrance, they recently expanded. During the event, this was a perfect check-in and getting-ready area for the competition. Following the start of the competition, their larger ballroom was transformed. That is this part had the music director, emcee, judges, and a large dance space. Photographing here was a good experience owing to the fact that they were accommodating. Moreover since this was their space, the organizers were flexible with the setup. With this in mind, I setup 3 strobes around the room.

Hilton Mclean Ballroom

To end the event on Saturday, they added a new set of dances compared to their usual Freestyles lineup. Direct competition is usually not an emphasis at these events for the local Arthur Murray studios. However, they have added a Club 2 Dance event. From what I saw this had a little less formal attire for the dancers similar to what they would wear at a social dancing club. Second, the style and feel that the dancers presented was more of an emphasis than technical figures. As a result, this allowed another side of the dancers to come out! It made for some different photos from the students with their teachers.

2016 Studio Headshots

Tysons, Virginia

Coming across clients on social media jogged my memory for these 2016 studio headshots. For these examples, I photographed in the studio. Compared to on-location setups, there are some advantages to doing it this way. Firstly, I have time to set the lighting beforehand. This will save time in how long you need to be at the studio. Secondly, a studio shoot allows for tethering the camera to the computer. Specifically, the images will immediately available to view on a nice large laptop screen, or TV monitor.

For this headshot, it was helpful to review the photos on a large TV monitor. Accordingly, you can review your facial expression, wardrobe, and how they look on a chosen background. With attention to the background a clean white seamless is very easy to work with after the shoot. In this case, the realty office has a certain corporate background that the headshot will be placed. With this in mind, it was important to get a background that would be easy for them to cut out later.

Darker Background Headshots

For Dr. AK here, I gave him a choice of a lighter or darker background. In contrast to the white, these seem to have a more specular quality to them. However, both styles I think are very professional and will do the job of elevating your branding with a professional portrait.
