Ballet pictures from today with new Barre

I thought I would put up a few pictures from today's session. I built a portable barre from Home Depot (is there anything that photographers do not get from there? They should sell cameras and I could do all my shopping in one place). Anyway, if you need a ballet barre at the house to do some stretching it will set you back about $75 bucks. As a studio prop, it was well worth it.

Anyway, on to the pictures...

Megan and her mom came in to get some studio shots today. Here is a simple portrait to start out the session.



The shiny new Home Depot Ballet Barre



This is what Megan was doing when I came back downstairs from get a faster lens. The best shots always seem to be the ones where the dancer is unaware of the camera.

Moving the blog to Wordpress

Update Nov 1st, 2012: I am back at Blogger to better integrate my blog and my website. A Rapidweaver plugin called Rapidblog sucks in my blogger page into my site so its better integrated and better seen by search engines. My wordpress site sort of sat outside of my main website and was never properly linked together.

I am going to try Wordpress for blog posting for a number of reasons. Mainly, I want to see how it works before I setup client's websites with the similar software. The commenting software on the old blog is broken and beyond repair. I'll leave it up until I can figure out how to import it.

I will work on the look and feel of the blog in the next couple of weeks.
