Even though we have not been at this event or this venue before, I am very happy with the photos. For one thing, the rooms in this venue were cavernous. Because of the space we had, I extended the lights stands to their highest level. Thus, the flash bulbs washed the floor with even light. Thus making the photos was relatively easy for us.

Thanks to Barbra Synder and Leraunt Van Loon for inviting us to cover their event this year. From the welcome reception, to the ending dinner, they had a friendly group attend! Congratulations on a successful competition!

Lancaster, Pennsylvania

The photos from last weekend’s 2017 Pennsylvania Ballroom Scrimmage are now ready to view at the TimeLine Media proofing site! Although this was not the first photo assignment in Lancaster, it was our first ballroom dance event. Since it was not too far from the metro DC area, we saw a lot of familiar faces from studios close to home. Similarly to other events, we have edited and sorted the photos by gentlemen’s number. Here is the link:

We met organizer, Barbra Snyder, at competitions in the DC Area. When she gave us the opportunity to photograph her event, we jumped at the chance. The Lancaster Marriott at Penn Square is a grand venue for events. Given that this was a large room, we used all the lighting we brought with us! Being connected to the convention center was a bonus. In spite of the sprawling hotel, we were able to setup quickly from the garage. I know all the participants had a great weekend of dancing!

Lancaster Pennsylvania Covered Bridges

Earlier this month, we traveled to Lancaster County, PA to help another photographer cover a beautiful wedding. The road trip allowed for some time to explore this part of the country that is not that far, but one that I have not visited in a very long time! The helpful visitor’s center pointed out some of the places that would be great for out of town visitors to see. The highlight for me and my camera were the covered bridges! I cannot remember the last time I had come across these in my travels, so I was excited to get some photos while we were in the area.

Little did I know there were so many around! We could easily drive to a few in a day, spend some time making photos, and still do some other sightseeing. These bridges all came with information right by their entrances. You can read about their history, their construction, and how they have changed in function over the years.

They had a nice setting in the farming country of southern Pennsylvania. Surrounded by cornfields, and spanning the waterways that carried commerce from Amish farms to the towns really gives you the sense of their importance in the development of the area. Although many of the covered bridges have been replaced so many are still in use. They help to preserve the history, and add nicely to the landscape. I will definitely try to make it back to see others next time.
