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!

There are just so many images that I am proud of from the last year. I still plan to do some sort of retrospective on the blog. The variety of shoots that I did really helped to round out my portfolio. It was great to get experience in new venues and different subjects. I have some new ones on the schedule that I am really excited about sharing with you this year. The first big event on the calendar is the upcoming Maryland Dancesport Championships on February 5-7 at the BWI Marriott. Amanda and Ilya Reyzin are the new owners of this competition, and we are so happy to be working with them again. They run a very smooth competition, and attract a lot of great dancers for their events. Stay tuned here for more as the date gets closer!

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.
