This photo series takes a look at the personality of the dancer, outside of a theater, with less attention to perfection. The movements captured are when the dancer is sometimes in a resting position, or when she has paused for a breath during a transition to another movement. She is still very elegant in her movements but is dancing for herself, inside her own world.
Cris and André: Cherish the Dress
This day was perfect weather for this shoot. I suggested we started early in the morning (6am!), so that we could take advantage of the beautiful pink sky at sunrise and not have to worry about many people standing in the background. Cris and Andre were completely fine with the early start, which was great!
The sky was a bit cloudy and we didn't have to worry about harsh direct sun until the end of the shoot. Those clouds worked really well as a huge diffuser for the sun. We started at the Lapa arches, and then went up to Santa Teresa. Santa Teresa, has some similarities to Salvador's Pelourinho, with all of the cute colonial styled houses.
A Whole New Life
This year has been filled with many new things. Honestly, it has been over whelming, and confusing to say the least, then at the same time, it has been wonderful and exciting. I am filled with so many conflicting emotions.
