The photos from the Marsha Bonet 2013 Dance Showcase are expiring this upcoming Monday. Thanks to especially to everyone that visited the website to view the images! We had a lot of response from dancers and parents from this event, and we are so happy that you found some that your liked. Please visit the link below, and forward to anyone that may like to see the photos one last time before they are removed:
It is an especially humbling privilege to cover this event, and we hope to be invited back next time. Of course we hope there are plans for more great dances at the next showcase! On this occasion the diversity and professionalism of everyone involved is impressive. It is a great evening of entertainment that is educational and fun to watch.
Just a reminder that the next two Mondays have events expiring on the proofing website. I have been trying to post them here on the blog more often to give as much notice as possible. If you want to have your email on our mailing list, I will also be sending out reminders there. Signing up on the proofing site will add you to the same list. If you are not sure, you can also sign up below. It won’t send duplicate emails if you use the same address.
Tomorrow is the expiration of the Salsa Bachata Throwndown photos, Monday the 26th is the expiration of the Marsha Bonet Showcase photos. This upcoming week, I have some recent photo shoots to edit and post on the blog, so there will be lots of new photos coming soon. Thanks to those that responded from the email list for some sports portraits, it has been fun to make these photos, and I think you will enjoy the results.
Thanks to everyone that has visited the new proofing website! The upgrade does seem to have been successful – we have not had any reports of any bugs so far. There are some expiring events coming up, so this would be a good time to check it out. Please visit the link below:
On the website are some events that are expiring soon. The Salsa-Bachata Throwdown held on April 14, 2013 in Rockville, MD will be removed on Monday, August 19, 2013. The Marsha Bonet Dance Showcase held on April 20, 2013 in Alexandria, VA will be removed on Monday, August 26, 2013. The dancers in these events really put a lot of creativity into their performances. The setup for these is also a departures from my normal coverage from the side of a ballroom dance floor. The Throwdown was held in a large dance studio with the audience very close to the dancers. The energy from having them so close seemed to amp up the performers. I was happy with how the images conveyed the enthusiasm of the evening from both sides.
Every year, I enjoy making images for Marsha Bonet’s students. Their annual dance showcase grows in skill and variety. From Flamenco, to Ballroom, to ethnic and cultural dances makes for an entertaining and education evening. This year, I was struck with the colors in the costumes. They were another indication of the thought that was put into this show. Adding a live band to the stage really made this an evening to save space for next year!
