Visit Here for all the Dance Photos I shot... We are newbies this year to Legendary Athletics and we couldn’t be any happier! It’s a wonderfully organized, well-run program with a positive coaching staff who go above and beyond to let the athletes know how important and accepted they are!  On Nov. 21st we attended the Talk of the Town Showcase hosted by Legendary and we were amazed at the talented young athletes. We are beyond proud and excited to attend competitions with this team.  No matter what happens though, it’s the positive, caring attitudes of the coaches and parents that will make this a season to remember! Thank you all for welcoming us into the Legendary Family- please feel free to pass along this link to the photos Tony captured, at the Showcase, to other families as we do not know everyone yet:)  Enjoy the Free Downloads Tony, Kim, and Chloe “The nice thing about teamwork is that you always have others on your side.” Margaret Carty ...

Encore Performing Arts Studio owners, Nicki and Annie, have welcomed us into their dance family again this year and it was just as exciting as before! Our family was fortunate enough to spend the day capturing costume, dance & personality memories that will last for years to come. The owners, instructors, parents and dancers were so KIND! The dancers are polite and offer a helping hand as well as listen to their teachers and the photographer giving them direction! It's always with great anticipation we photograph these dancers each year. We look forward to seeing their growth in so many ways! Thank you Encore for the opportunity to share in your dancers' day and capture another fleeting moment in time!  Don't forget to Like us on Facebook and give us a positive review!

I had to share this before-after to demonstrate what can happen during a shoot. For some reason, the strobes did not fire. I knew I had a great shot as soon as I snapped it. But... when I went to the laptop and noticed a black image, I felt my stomach hit the ground! I missed it!!! Arrrgggggg &^%#$#!@@#$ After the shoot, I went and decided to visit this "dark" image and see what bumping up the exposure would reveal. I knew it... it WAS the look I was striving for with my son, Luke. I did ask him to get back in front of the camera for a quick re-take but as we both knew... it was a long shot so we just went on. Call me stubborn, but I just cranked all the settings to the max and performed some magic... the above AFTER photo. I'm pretty happy with it, and so is Luke. Big lesson for the day... shoot your images in RAW. You never know what spectacular image you would miss if you didn't.

Happy Friday! It's been a long week and finally had the chance to edit this photo we took of Samantha Frahn  this past weekend !!   More images just around the corner.  But in the mean time..... Don’t forget this weekend is Spring forward! We lose an hour of our day! Saturday night/Sunday early morning at about 2am set your clocks forward 1 hour. So now that you know you’re losing an hour, do you know why?? And other interesting things about Daylight Saving Time! DST first used in Germany US inventor and politician Benjamin Franklin first proposed the concept of DST in 1784, but  modern Daylight Saving Time first saw the light of day, in 1895 when an entomologist from New Zealand, George Vernon Hudson, presented a proposal for a two-hour daylight saving shift. However,  Germany was the first country to implement DST on April 30, 1916 when the clocks were set forward at 11 pm. Though often referred to as daylight savings time (the...
