These photos are from another great event that TimeLine Media photographs each year, the River City Ballroom Dance Competition. Competition organizers Veronica Braun and Lee Nugent from Simply Ballroom VA in Richmond have worked hard to put together a really nice event for dancers to show off for judges and studio friends. It is held at the Greater Richmond Convention Center which has a large high-ceiling room with a beautiful dance floor.

It is also nice to see so many familiar dancers at this event. Being from the northern Virginia area, it is nice to see many instructors, dancers that recognize us, and know what we do. It emphatically does make for better photos! The trip to Richmond is very drivable. Additionally, the area around the convention center is very convenient to hotels, restaurants. Also it gives a nice variety to the type of venues we shoot. I am much more confident if anyone asks for photos in a large convention center room that I can light the room to get good exposures.

2013 Event

The convention center room is so large that I do have to adjust the way I light the dance floor, but we still get beautiful images of dancers in all styles. This year, they are planning a Professional Showcase Challenge to add to the program which should be a great show! We are excited about going back to cover the event this year, and we look forward to making more great images. See you there!

Ballroom Dance photos – 2012 Baltimore Dancesport Challenge

I’ll have more on this event, but here are some favorites from the 2012 Baltimore Dancesport Challenge. This is a terrific one-day event to show off your dancing in front of the judges. As far as ballroom dance photos go, this was a beautiful ballroom setting. From the pleasing light fixtures, and warm wood accents, the background blurred nicely in most of the images.

On this occasion, this competition moved to the BWI Westin. It was an overall upgrade in terms of improving the venue for this competition. Marielle has in fact a lot of experience in running a professional event, and this better showed off how accommodating she and her team can be.

After all the dancing, they always have some great professional shows to cap off the day. We are especially looking forward to traveling to the Baltimore area for this year’s edition. This year’s event will be March 16, 2013. Visit their website here. for ticket and showcase information for anyone interested in attending the competition.

This year’s event will be held at the Marriott North Bethesda Hotel & Conference Center in Bethesda, MD. We plan to be there, to make more great ballroom dance photos! In case you are planning on dancing, please come say hello. While we try to get everyone out on the floor, it will help us to identify who wants us to follow them. Especially those that are familiar with our work, please give us some feedback. Lastly, best of luck in your final practices! Focus on getting your figures just right for the judges, and we’ll take care of the photos.
