USA Dance Mid Atlantic Championships – Smooth/Standard

USA Dance Mid Atlantic Championships

Some photos posted from the Smooth & Standard heats from the USA Dance Mid Atlantic Championships. These photos specifically were made at the 2011 event held at the Bethesda North Mariott Conference Center. At this time, it will be the site of the event again. For the most part, it is a great venue to hold this event – lots of space for dancers and spectators. As I have noted other photos from this event on previous blog posts here. We are excited to be going back in light of both the participants and the venue.

UPDATE – Now that the photos from this event have been uploaded please visit the proofing site! It was a long weekend, and the dancers showed off their talents out there. If you have any trouble finding your images, please reach out! On account of the large number of images, I am sure there were some mistakes. Additionally, it may be difficult to find your photos in all the folders. Thank you!

Some of my favorite photos from the 2012 DC Area Arthur Murray Summer Showcase. This year’s event will be held on June 22, 2013 at the Hilton McLean in Tysons Corner, VA.

New Year – Arthur Murray

Looking back over photos from last year, these had change to the background. Of course, we started going to a new venue at the McLean Hilton. Consequently, we have a change to the background of the dance photos. Comparatively to the Sheraton, this ballroom had a lower ceiling making a change to our lighting setup. For that reason, we had a change in how our photos look. Overall, how would you describe the photos? Do you see the difference? With this in mind, let me know your thoughts. We have a new year to make more photos. Given that, I do not want to have the quality of images drop. We take a lot of effort to bring gear, extra help, and processing time after the event to finish the photos. We hope you enjoy them as much as we put into them!

These were all from the professional shows that capped an all-day dance event from students and instructors. Get ready for another year of great routines!

Ballroom dance photos

Now that we are in a new year, we are preparing to make more ballroom dance photos. On this occasion, we are looking back on photos from the 2012 USA Dance Mid-Atlantic Championships. This year’s event will be February 16 – 17, 2013. Since this will be the same venue as last year, I am confident on our lighting setup. The Marriott North Bethesda has some of the largest ballrooms in the area. From a photography standpoint, this makes the job much easier.

Similarly to the organizers, we are trying to incorporate new technologies as they are available. The electronic organizers used by judges help streamline the scoring. Overall, I can see the scrutineer getting the data much faster. Especially considering the large number of heats and scores that need tabulating, I am sure this makes the job easier. This time, we are going to try to do some things behind the scenes for the photography too. We want to get these out to you as soon as possible. Stay tuned to see how we do once they have all been uploaded!
