We are back from photographing the DC Dance Challenge yesterday. It was an amazing feat by the organizers to find a new venue to hold the event in only 3 days! With the continuing government shutdown, the originally planned venue of the Spanish Ballroom at Glen Echo was not available for use. Jennifer and Fabio quickly acted to keep the event on schedule as planned, and they pulled it off perfectly! The Atrium Ballroom in the Ronald Reagan Building was an amazing space to hold this ballroom dance event.
I made lots of photos of the setting, the food, and the setup which works really well for these types of events. There was a ante-room before entering the ballroom which was setup as a practice floor and vendor area. We setup our booth there so that dancers could view their photos on iPads just outside the ballroom.
The full Dance Jam Productions floor was really liked by dancers. We see their work at a number of dancesport competitions, and this was no exception. The building also has a catering department which provided lunch and dinner for attendees in the ballroom. This was very convenient, and made the event run more smoothly. I will post more from the event, but I have to get back to editing the dancing photos for viewing this weekend!
