Photos from last weekend’s That’s Dancing 2016 Summer Showcase have been released at the TimeLine Media proofing site! This was the most crowded I can remember for their in-studio showcase. Where as there is usually plenty of space for my lights by the videographer cameras, we were up against this wall this time!

Student Routines

Marielle and Carlos filled their studio for this showcase! This time, they had a Disney theme carried throughout the evening. Since I am a big ‘Star Wars’ fan that is part of the Disney umbrella, I connected with these the most. To illustrate these movies in dance was very creative!

Thanks to all the dancers and the staff of That’s Dancing Ballroom in Jessup. Following their showcase, I know they like to redecorate their studios with photos. To be sure, these would look nice on their walls. The sparkly gold background really ties all of these together!

Emmes Corporation 10 Years in India

Rockville, Maryland

Last month, I photographed the Emmes Corporation 10 year celebration for their office opening in India. From their headquarters in Rockville, MD, the staff went above and beyond to demonstrate the Indian culture. On this occasion, they highlighted the employees that emigrated from India, and all the people that have expanded their business through their work there.

During the day, the floors of their headquarters were decorated in like manner to keep the celebration top of mind. In one room, there was a henna artist producing designs for employees that came by. Later in the afternoon, a yoga teacher that had a peaceful meditation session in a large empty room. In contrast, a Bollywood dance class got the heart rate up after lunch! Finally, you could chill with the sitar musicians playing in a break room. What a colorful day at work!

Richmond, Virginia

During a free weekend, we visited the 2016 Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden. Butterflies LIVE! was open in a special collection, so we made the trip to Richmond. Given that this was our first visit to this garden, we were really impressed! My uncle is an excellent gardener so he was excited about looking at their displays in particular the irises.

Flower photography compared to other genres of photography is both difficult and easy. Why? Your subject does not move. In order to get different angles, you can move yourself and work the scene. Second, this subject has great colors to work with! Similarly to a model with colorful dresses, flowers have many combinations to work with. On the other hand, it can be difficult to master flower photography. Since it is easy to see the beauty in a flower, and because they are plentiful, there are so many examples out there! To standout, you would have to have many factors come together to make a flower photo stand out. Sine this was just a family trip to the gardens, I do not think any of these are anything to write home about. I did have some ideas for future visits – hopefully I’ll get some before the flowers go this season!

This weekend, there were butterflies on display in a section of the garden. Given that this was the first time I have been in an indoor butterfly garden, it was a bit unnerving for me! Once I got used to the very thin, flying creatures in the room, I was able to attempt some photos. Even though these are not as prevalent as flower photos, I still did not get anything that notable. I did enjoy the day with the family, and that was goal for the day anyway!
