When it was fresh, I posted about this competition when the photos were released. Held at the impressive Ronald Reagan Building right near the power centers of Washington, DC, makes this an appropriately named competition. At the end of the 2015 DC Dance Challenge, we were treated to performances by two dynamic professional couples.

In addition to judging competition heats during the day, Manuel Trillo and Anna Belyavtseva put on an American-style dance collection of routines. Their sharp lines, and quick movements gave the dancers in the crowd something to aim for as they continue their dance studies.

Additionally Rosalia Gasso and Alejandro Barrientos performed Argentine Tango. As can be seen in their photos, their shows were a showcase of strength and speed. During their shows, Alejandro would do lifts so effortlessly. Whereas small kicks are a staple of Tango, I encourage you to find videos of these two performing. The speed at which they perform these have to be seen live!

Finally, thank you to Jennifer Bonini and the volunteers from Forever Dancing! Even though they had a lot of familiar faces at their competition, they treated everyone like a first time guest. We hope to see you next year!

Fair Lakes, Virginia

Happy 2016! During some time off for the holidays, I am blogging about some events from last year. September was the celebration of the Peterson Companies 50 year anniversary. As long as I have lived in northern Virginia, I have lived near, shopped at, or worked in a property created by them. Joanna from Peterson’s marketing has had my cover corporate events, property openings, and some other work at their centers. Thus, I was honored to cover this special event for them.

Being that their company has stayed in business for 50 years is an amazing accomplishment. Moreover, they have impacted the DC metro area with their projects transforming the development of the entire region. On this occasion it was an honor to photograph the founder, Milt Peterson who spoke to all the guests. Afterwards, the buffet from Silver Spoon Caterers was opened! Luckily the weather cooperated, and they had a beautiful evening at their headquarters for an event. Because of the good weather, the lawn games were very popular. Additionally, golf balls were driven into the lake! Although this was a company party, many coworkers seemed like family. Undoubtedly this contributes to their continued success.

Rising from the Plaza at Tysons Corner Center, their large Christmas tree was a focal point this holiday season. Once the holiday market tents were built, and the tree put in place, the crowds started to gather. Finally it was time for the 2015 Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony!

Earl’s – Tysons, VA

Whereas Earl’s ice rink on the Plaza was a place to play and cool off, their restaurant warms you up. After all the skating, the inviting bar at the Earl’s adjacent to the Plaza is a perfect meeting spot.

Soon, the ceremony was ready to begin. Chilli Amar, and Loo Katz of 97.1 WASH-FM met Santa at the ice rink. Doug Hill came to give us good weather predictions for the night. Elliott Yamin sang some holiday favorites and the tree was lit!
