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!

Arthur Murray – Gaithersburg professional show

Tysons, Virginia

Today’s post is from the Arthur Murray 2013 Summer Showcase. These photos were from the professional show by the Gaithersburg studio. As long as we have been attending DC area dance events, we have seen Jonathan on the dance floor. Whenever he is out there, I am inspired by his dancing. As can be seen, he has incredible balance, and control of his movement. On this occasion, the dance was a Bolero. Overall, it was an athletic performance with lots of lifts and dips to excite the crowd.

Gaithersburg Pro Show

I love this photo showing the enthusiastic supporters from Gaithersburg screaming for their instructors, and ready with their cameras! This was the second performance from their studio at this event, and they should be proud of the reception they received from the audience. Even though the crowd is so close to the dance floor, I do not consider them as much when concentrating on the performers. So in any photo if you catch a nice crowd reaction, it was likely a happy accident. We can’t wait to see what they come up with for the next event!

Thank you to everyone that visited the website yesterday with the expiring photos. It was altogether a very busy traffic day. Likewise I have a lot of orders to place with the lab. If you did order prints, they will be sent to the lab by this morning and should be sent this week. For the event editing, I am concurrently working through the Arthur Murray Summer Showcase photos. There is some editing progress being made!

As a sneak peak, the photos are looking really nice! There were some entertaining routines at the showcase, and you should be proud of your performances. Here are some photos of Lynn, John, Leonard, and Bobby – the judges that evaluated the dancers over the weekend.
