February Events

USA Dance Mid-Atlantic Championships - ©TimeLine Media

I am taking a good rest this February weekend. The gear is getting cleared off and ready for more events that we will be covering this month. There is the USA Dance Mid-Atlantic Championships this upcoming weekend. Back to the dance floor with our cameras, and I am sure that the dancers are getting ready as well.

The weekend after is SingStrong DC in Reston, VA! Since this is an anniversary year from when I was first introduced to a cappella music, I will be definitely be ready to get an update on what groups are doing this year. Singing, choreography, arrangements – so many things have changed over the last 20 years, and I look forward to my annual “check-up” on the latest and greatest. If you are in the area, be sure to go to their website to get info on tickets. There will be lots of performances and workshops over the three days. Plus, I can make a photo of you!

USA Dance – Mid Atlantic Championships

It is only 10 days until we head out to cover our first ballroom dance event of 2014 – USA Dance MAC! I am really excited about getting out there to make another big collection of dance photos. It has been a while, and I am well rested from the editing and sorting of photos from last year. I have been busy making new ones with personal projects, but I cannot wait to get back to the colors, the music, and all the great action on the dance floor.

If you are in the metro DC area, you should make plans to come see at last some part of the competition. The USA Dance Mid-Atlantic Championships is a huge competition with lots going on both on and off the floor. The venue, the Bethesda North Marriott Hotel and Conference Center, is one of the nicest settings for dancing. It is a large, bright room that can accommodate the large floor, and all the couples easily. We try to improve our setup of lighting every year, and I have some ideas for this year to help me and photographers make the best photos for you. Please come out and see the action live, and come back here to see our photos.

I know the organizers are always trying new things with each competition. They have a lot of technology in use to make it easier for the judges, scrutineers, and dancers to stay on track. We really enjoy seeing their innovation, and am privileged to be covering their event for another year. It should be a fun weekend!

Overall, we want to thank Jennifer and Fabio Bonini for inviting us to their event. On this occasion, the full dance floor made the job of finding dancers throughout the event very easy! We are also selecting photos for the top student awards. Stay tuned for updates!
