Not only was this our first time at this event, but this was our first time to this part of New Jersey. Although we did get confused driving around as we are originally from Woodbridge, Virginia! However, we felt right at home by the end of the weekend.

The dancing was a really high level from all the participating studios. Various events from competitive heats, showcases, and group formations were danced. Surprisingly the students and staff handled all of these well! I enjoyed the variety of all the events keeping the photos interesting throughout the day. For the final Team Match with Summer Vs. Winter, the studio spirit really came out! To conclude this event with all the dancers in the middle of the floor cheering and dancing was exciting to photograph. The professionals really showed off their talent in an effort to win it all!

Thanks again for Nadia for inviting us to her event. We enjoyed the opportunity to show what we can do to a new audience. Best of luck!

The photos from last weekend’s 2018 FADS NJ Team Match have been released! Another new event for us and our first trip to New Jersey in years. We are not yet as familiar with the studios here, thus we sorted the photos by gentlemen’s number. While they are up, you can find them here:

Last year, I was contact by Nadia from the Fred Astaire Dance Studio in Montville, NJ. Certainly this was a booking due to a scheduling conflict. Given that Ryan Kenner usually photographs their events, it was unexpected for us to be here. Without a doubt, I was nervous about covering this event. Ryan is an amazing photographer! It would be big shoes for me to fill for these studios.

Once I got setup, and started making photos, I was feeling better. The venue was the Renaissance Woodbridge Hotel ballroom. Without a doubt, the organizers were very familiar with setting up a room for ballroom dancing. This was not just a studio showcase, this looked like a big dancesport competition! Of course with a new audience, we hope that they enjoy the photos. Please send me any feedback that you have on the results!

When the DC area Arthur Murray studios get together for their Freestyles events, the part that gets the most participation from everyone there has to be the Potomac Cup team match. This pits all the studios from Maryland against the studios from Virginia in a one-dance competition between amateur dancers from different studios. They all compete at their level, so a Bronze student will dance with another Bronze student, etc. And each level will also have a dance selected by the organizers which is not known until just before the music starts. The participation from the others that are not dancing in the competition, the studios will choose a theme to represent their side of the river. For Maryland, the theme was Harry Potter, for Virginia, the theme was 80’s heavy metal hair bands. This is obviously one of those times where pictures speak louder than words!
