Wow – we have finished 9000 photos from last week’s 2015 Maryland Dancesport Championships! It was quite a feat, but afterwards we sorted all the photos into over 100 folders. I know I may have made some mistakes so please let me know if there are any photos that are misfiled. While they are available, the link to the photos is below:

Above all, thank you to Ilya and Amanda Reyzin for having us cover their event again this year. This is one of our newer events that we are photographing, and they have really hit the ground running. You would not have known that they have not been organizing this competition for years. There was a lot of technology implemented throughout the weekend, but the dancers went on and off the floor smoothly. Most importantly, everyone had a good time! We saw a lot of networking between dancers from many different studios. The organizers, and staff from the competition w ere engaging with the crowd, and we made sure to get photos of them all!

We really enjoyed looking over these photos. The setup of the ballroom, and the artistry of the dancers made our job easier. It was busy all weekend long, and that was the reason for so many awesome images. We hope you enjoy them, and please share the link with any dance friends that would like to see your photos. Thank you!

Arthur Murray 2014 Fall Showcase | Dance Photographer

This was the last of the local DC Area Arthur Murray events that we cover throughout the year. With two rooms going at the same time in the morning and afternoon, there is a lot for me and my photographers to cover! We had a great time seeing and hearing all the routines that they have been working on this year. The supportive crowds were very loud in cheering for their favorites!

Because I had a lot of good help behind the cameras, I was able to enjoy more of the dancing. To be sure, I had lots of time looking through the viewfinder. Having done a few of these Showcases in the past, I know how much work goes into preparing these. It takes a lot of lessons to gain the muscle memory to do all of the sequence of steps. After getting that under your belt, you need to spend time coordinating it to the right song. The last weeks are spent really refining the details. Firstly, determine how you will walk on and off the floor. Secondly, how you will face the audience, and, hopefully, how you can get the camera to get your best angles!

We came away with hundreds of awesome images from the day! You can remember the months of work on these routines. I am so glad that you found your favorites in the collection.

I know I have not been blogging as regularly the last few weeks, and it is because I have been catching up with all the photo shoots I have been doing. I have not even gone through all the photos from this event to pick out my favorites to keep in the portfolio! In the quick look I did for this post, I know I have to do that soon. There were some great images from the professional Rising Star and Open Professional shows.

There were also some other entertainment to go along with the ballroom dancing. The Lindy Hop All Stars and magician David Darwin rounded out the main show. Thanks to everyone that visited the website over the past three weeks. I have sent a lot of prints all around the country and I am sure the digital files have been sent even farther and faster! Please send the link to anyone that attended the competition and have not yet seen their photos. They will be available to view on the website until next March, it is only the pricing for items that will go up starting tomorrow.
