We caught up with many familiar friends over the weekend. Some we see at other events, and some we only see at this event. Of course That’s Dancing Ballroom had a large representation here. Carlos was on the floor for most of the day!

Also, there were some solo routines presented. In addition to showing dance skills, these had added artistry to the presentation. Choreography is matched to music. At the same time the movement conveys the music for the audience. Besides having control of the music, they have command of the floor as well!

The photos from last March’s 2017 Baltimore Dancesport Challenge are expiring on August 28. This fall, we will be covering more dance events so we need to make room on the server. After that Monday, the photos will be moved to the archive server. Here is the link if you have not seen them yet:

Slawek & Denise

To finish the day of dancing, Slawek Roszak & Denise Sobiewski danced a set of professional shows. This was the first time I have photographed them, and they were excellent! On this occasion they danced a set of Smooth routines that really engaged with the crowd. Along with their Dore Designs costumes, the dress colors were varied for each, and popped nicely. Making a connection with the audience is important for anyone performing. These two definitely made connections, and it seemed she was looking right through the camera lens throughout their routines!

Thanks again for Marielle for inviting us back to her event! Particularly her experience and motivation to have a premier dancesport event in Baltimore was a success. You can see video on the PabonPro YouTube channel. Moreover, The BWI Westin is a beautiful ballroom, and judging by the growing participants year after year shows her efforts are paying off. We appreciate the support from all the dancers that bought digital files and prints from this event. We hope they got to you in good condition, and we look forward to seeing them on social media!

Last week, we went to the BWI area of Maryland to cover the 2017 Baltimore Dancesport Challenge. After the week of editing and sorting, I have posted the collection of photos at the TimeLine Media proofing site. To clarify, the photos have been sorted by the gentleman’s number worn in heats. Please share the links with anyone that may like to see them:

Thanks to Marielle Pabon for having us cover her event again this year. She has been a big supporter of our work for years. Likewise, we attempt to get good marketing photos for her competition during the event. The way she sets up the ballroom makes that an easy job. For one thing, there is a beautiful dark blue curtain behind the dais. Having it just in that section, keeps the rest of the room open making it less confining than other setups we have attended. As can be seen in the above photo, the attendance was high for this event! The award break emphasized that. We hope you enjoy the images, and thank you for sharing them around!
