Legacy Scenic

On this occasion, I went to the Chantilly, Virginia offices of Legacy Scenic. As can be seen, this is not only an office space but a workshop, design lab, and warehouse in one! Being that a photographer has access to look behind the curtain at events, this is look behind the curtain – behind the curtain!

For large events, I have seen elaborate branded sets where speakers, and presentations are made against camera-ready backdrops. Legacy Scenic is the company that creates these sets from scratch. While they have

the experience in creating these, you can work with them to design how your set will look. On account of the elements on a set being custom, they have the capability to fabricate what you need from small to large details. I photographed them working with the large, noisy, and sometimes sparking machines. These were amazing for photos!

If you visit their updated website, you can see my images added to their photos of completed sets. Given that this is an election year, you will likely see more of their work on news channels this fall. When trade shows come back, you will undoubtedly see them there as well. Thanks to Virginia and the team at StraTac Marketing for the opportunity to see the magic behind this creative company. Also, thanks to the team at Legacy who was very patient with me as I asked so many questions while I was there. They have almost as many cools toys to play with at work as photographers!

Bachata Masters

Rockville, Maryland

Last Saturday evening, I was invited to photograph the Bachata Masters event held at the Rendezvous Social Dance Club. This is the latest event in a series that Kat, the owner of Ferocity Dance Company, has organized. It has been a lot of fun at each but the energy at this particular one was at another level!

Dance Workshop

These are always well attended by so many dancers of varying experience levels. Throughout the day, the workshop to learn new techniques, and refine styling, then come back at night to party, dance, and show off their new moves. It is awesome to see so many friends new and old that request to dance and they really have a great time dancing to the music played by DJ EMERZIVE & DJ RENZO.

At the middle point of all the dancing, the floor was cleared for some featured Showcases. This was a treat for everyone that was in attendance. The lineup included Ferocity Dance Company, Alma DC, the headlines, DANIEL & DESIRÉE – World Bachata Masters Champions from Spain. I setup my lights to get some cool images of all the performances. It was a great audience for these performers and they were so responsive for what they were seeing. If you get a chance, please look for videos of these performances online – they were fun to watch, and I looked for them since I was busy at the time!
