Amanda and Ilya set up another beautiful Atlantic City ballroom this year. Although I am biased to the color red, I really like how this accent color pops out of the frame. It invokes a retro feel in fact. It is especially appropriate for a ballroom dance competition.

From here I am resting for a bit from the computer since the photos are released. Whenever I think about the repitition of covering ballroom dance events, I think about John DePalma. Not only does he emcee competitions, but he has a studio and organizers his own events. While we watched him at work this weekend, he gives the same enthusiastic delivery at the last heat as he did with the first.

Again, we would like to thank the organizers, Ilya and Amanda Reyzin for having us cover their event this year! Since we have seen their amazing on the dance floor, we knew they would put on a premiere competition. Undoubtedly their experience over the years in competition has helped them. Everything went smoothly over the weekend, and they should be proud of their efforts to put on a great weekend of dancing.

American Star Ball – Familiar Faces

Honestly – I am buckling down with the edits for last weekend’s event! I am on track to finish these to view by this weekend. For today’s post, I decided to finally post a preview of the dance action photos. It was nice to see some familiar faces out there! This was the fourth year we have photographed the American Star Ball, and we have always been received nicely by the dancers at this event. Now that they have seen us a few times, I think they like the photos we make. Here are some of the image from the Saturday night professional competition heats. We were introduced to ballroom dance at the Arthur Murray studio in Tysons Corner, VA. Steve Theiss also gave me the first opportunity to photograph ballroom dancing, and now we are invited to shoot many other events. It is nice, though to see other Arthur Murray dancers on the floor, so we cheered for them while taking photos. Enjoy!
