USA Dance 2009 Southeastern Championships

More fun dance news! TimeLine Media will be the photography vendor for the USA Dance 2009 Southeastern Championships. On this occasion it will be held February 28 – March 1, 2009. The competition will be held at the Hyatt Regency Bethesda. This will be another great chance to get photos of dancers that have worked so hard with their instructors for this special event. I am so excited as the great hobby of ballroom dance is mixing well with my photography! I will be posting the images from the event at this website when they are available. As always, my best wishes are for the dancers to do well, then to enjoy the pictures afterwards after all the nerves and adrenaline! Best of luck!

UPDATE – this is a couple of years after this post was made. At this time I wanted to beef up the content of these USA Dance posts. For this reason, I am amazed at the change in these blog posts. Not only is the content different, but I can’ t imagine posting without any of my photos along with the text! However, this was very early in my photography career. In fact, this was the first time we ever covered this event. We look forward to our continued partnership!

Lauren and Ariel

On Saturday, I was fortunate to photograph Lauren and Ariel for their wedding in Silver Spring, MD. It started an overcast, slightly rainy day but turned as the bride, groom, and guests arrived at St. Stephen’s Lutheran Church. They were all excited, and happy! Obviously, their excitement could not be contained inside or outside the building!

There were proud parents, supportive siblings, family from far and wide in attendance. On this occasion, the ceremony was unique and personal to the bride and groom. Additionally they had family participation and touches of their personalities from gifts, to written vows. Thanks especially to Maria, the mother of the groom, for letting me be a part of your family’s celebration! I hope I was able to capture all the beauty and love that was shared by your growing family.

D.C. Photographers at the National Harbor

Last Wednesday, I was fortunate to participate in a meeting of DC Photographers. On this occasion some local wedding and portrait photographers met at the newly built National Harbor in Maryland. This was my first trip to the beautiful development. Additionally, it the first time I met some of the photographers that are in the area.

It was organized by Armin Defiesta – who was generous with his time and advice to get this thing organized. I listened to their experiences with other products and marketing techniques that I hope will help me in my photography career. We had a model, Maggie, who had patience to pose for so many of us. Of course, the camera did get turned on many of the photographers as well.

While we were spending the afternoon there, I heard about the business side of photography from many perspectives. Up until this time, I did not realize how little I have reached out to others in the industry. It was eye opening and encouraging to get my name out there!

Thanks, Armin for letting me join you! The DC photographers I met were so talented and willing to share ideas. I can’t wait for the next GTG!
