Marsha Bonet Dance showcase

Marsha has invited me out to shoot her and her students as they present some dance showcase routines that they have put together. There is a great diversity in the dances and the dancers, and we always make some great photos! There is a combination of dances from Flamenco, to ballet, Freestyle, and belly dancing.

Being that this is not the first event that I have covered for her, I have some solid expectations on what to expect. Firstly, she has a variety of dance styles that her students study. Not only does this show her skills as a teacher, but it allows the students to show off more of their personalities. They have the flexibility to study a style that fits their interest.

Next, Marsha is herself a terrific showman! Whereas she is a talented dancer, having the sensibility of presenting to an audience is another aspect to her art that sets her apart. It is always a great show!

American Star Ball

Today I am posting more ballroom dance photos from the American Star Ball held in Atlantic City, NJ. This year’s event will be May 17 – 19, 2013 at the Golden Nugget. We are planning to be there again this year!

Additionally, to looking to see some awesome dancing, we are excited to be working with the organizers. Since we have been photographing these competitions for a while, we have interacted a few times with Amanda and Ilya Reyzin. When they attend competitions, they are always popular personalities.

Even though they are champions of the highest level, they impress their students with their passion for dance. In addition, they are popular judges due to their reputation and artistic prowess on the floor. Now, they are the organizers of this competition. When this was announced last year, they asked if we were interested in continuing the partnership as photography vendors. Of course, we were humbled by the request. Being that they are recent competitors, and plugged into the community, I am sure they have a lot of ideas for updating the competition. We look forward to seeing the updates. Let us know if you plan to be there too!

UPenn Classic – postponed

Virginia Snow photos - www.timelinedc.com

All geared up and nowhere to go! I’m starting to feel like a bad luck charm. It was 2011, and we were preparing to go to the UPenn Clover Star Classic in Philadelphia, PA, the former name for this competition. Just like two years ago, the car was packed, the cameras were clean, but a looming snow storm postponed that event too! We still hope to cover this event if we are available at the makeup date. We hope friends, family, and everyone in the northeast stays safe and warm through the upcoming storm.

Being that we had our event cancelled due to snow, here are some appropriate images. We get snow here occasionally. Immediately after the snow falls is my favorite time to make photos. In light of the short time where the snow clings to tree limbs and bark you can create some fleeting images.

Below is an image made on actual film. This is a Kodak slide film exposure that was scanned to create a digital image. At this time, I no longer shoot film. The convenience and immediacy of digital is hard to give up.

Again, we hope to make it to the UPenn Classic soon!
