Arthur Murray Posters

It received close to 60 votes at the TimeLine Media Facebook page! It was great to see so many people sharing and liking the photo. I confess that was one of my favorite posters too. It was a fun show, and the dancers did a beautiful job with the performance. In addition, my eyes really like the light green color splash from her dress, and his tie. Matching their color to the title for the poster really made it pop out from the rest for me.

The Foxtrot is always one of the smoothest of the smooth dances. The two of them display this walking feel in the images. Their knees are bent, with them staying low through the dance. It easy to differentiate these images from the Tango with its harder, straightened knees, and obvious holds in movement. These two really made the dance look like it flowed from one part of the floor to the next even out of the dip in the poster! To see all the photos from this show, they are still available at the proofing website:

Just as with all the staff members in the posters, these shows were performed after a full day of dancing with their students! They will gather again this weekend to do more at the Fall Freestyles. I will definitely have more photos to share with you on the blog after then. If you have any suggestions as to what to do for the next round of posters, let me know! I have a few ideas, but nothing is set yet. It may depend on how the shows and photos from those turn out. Thanks again to the Arthur Murray studios of the DC Area for having us cover their events again this year!

Arthur Murray Spring Freestyles Expiring

Westfields Marriott

I suppose that the main reason that photographers start blogging is to share their photos online. Secondly is to attract more visitors that will hire you to do more projects! That being the case, I have been very busy that last few weeks, and I have a lot of photo management and processing to do. Unfortunately, the blog is what has gone to the back burner, and I am consequently feeling VERY guilty! I apologize to those few of you that stop by to see what I am up to. Rest assured, I have not had any drastic changes, and I still plan on keeping you updated here on my photography projects.

Spring Freestyles Expiring

Today, the post has to focus on this being the last day that you can view and purchase photos from the Arthur Murray Spring Freestyles. The DC Area studios gathered at the Westfields Marriott in Chantilly, VA for their first big event of 2014. We had previously attended an Arthur Murray at this beautiful hotel as students, but this was the first time we photographed a ballroom dance event there as the official photographers. We assembled a great team of photographers and helpers that made sure we could capture as many dancers as we could over the two days. To view all the photos from the event, please visit the proofing site here:

At the end of the event, we came away with some great photos of the professional shows! I really had a great time playing with these photos. If you remember, we had a Facebook voting contest with images that I treated with a distressed-retro look. I think it was a good combination with the kinds of images from the shows. I am currently working on the next set of professional shows from the Summer Showcase. That will be next on the growing to do list. Stay tuned!

Expiring Ballroom Dance Events!

Summer is flying by! Although it does not seem like that long ago, the time has come to clean out more room on the web server for new events. There are three ballroom dance events that are expiring very soon at the TimeLine Media proofing website. These have been up for a while, and we have had lots of visitors.

Firstly, thanks to you that have come by and purchased your photos! I have even put together a couple of albums from these events. Overall this is a great way to share your images without having to be tethered to a tablet or smartphone. At this time, albums can be made from photos of any event we have covered. I put together a layout of your 12-20 favorite photos. After you approve the design, I send the layouts to the lab for printing and binding into a leather album. It is actually cheaper to get the prints in an album than as free prints! If you have any other questions, or would like to know more about our “Ballroom Brag Books” as we call them, please send me an email, or give me a call.

The three events that are expiring soon are:

2014 Baltimore Dancesport Challege – expires July 21, 2014

Arthur Murray 2014 Spring Freestyles – expires July 28, 2014

2014 River City Ballroom Dance Competition – expired August 4, 2014

I am scheduled to photograph a lot of exciting upcoming events in the next few weeks. I am shooting a couple of weddings, and there are a lot of happenings planned at Tysons Corner Center next week. Rest assured, I’ll be sure to share my adventures and images here on the blog and my other social media outlets. Have a nice weekend!
