Yes I'm Dancing!
































It has been a wonderful couple of years relative to my Dance Photography!  There is so much to look forward too in the months to come including a major dance conference in Toronto in January!  This week My photography was featured on the Art & Culture Mavens Blog written by Anya Wasssenberg.  Additionally some of my dance images can be found at Sway Magazines Website where Anya also writes!

New York! Number 6!

































Congrats NY!  Welcome to the real world!  Message to the 44 states left. You can not discriminate against people in a democracy... Its UN-American!   Stop spreading false statements about how Gay marriage will destroy society... We have had it here in Canada for most of a decade and the only impact it has had is making everyone happily equal.

Taylor Siluwe 1966 - 2011




















Life is unkind in how it can sometimes come to completion in sad and painful ways.  Fellow Blogger and activist Taylor Siluwe lost his battle with cancer.
Like most bloggers we never met but from time to time he would comment on one of my posts and that meant a lot to me.

Happy Anniversary!

































Marriage is a lot of hard work and sometimes there are moments when it could be easy to just give up, I know I have been there.  But its also amazing and brings forth a whole new set of things to your life that were unexpected and can fill you with awe!   Having someone in this world to be there through all of all of the good and bad, to wade through the crap and walk through the flowers is something irreplaceable.  Its an experience like no other.    I was there when Glenroy and Anthony were married a year ago... It was magic!   Congrats guys on your first year!

Recalcitrare

































I was fortunate to attend the premiere of Kevin A. Ormsby's new dance piece Recalcitrare.  It is the culmination of years of work and influence and it is exuberant and tender and surely heralds a new and exciting phase in Kevin's career!  To see it in all its glory you can catch it at the Canada Dance Festival on June 16th at National Arts Centre on 53 Elgin Street in Ottawa!

Kevin Ormsby Takes Flight Again!















So one of the things I have learned over recent years is just how stressful Dance can be on the body and last year my friend Kevin hurt his (for conversation sake) Achilles Heal... Grounded some of his more lofty dance efforts.  An operation and several months later Kevin is once again taking flight in preparation for his of company's new work Recalcitrare set to be premiered at the Canada Dance Festival on June 16th 2011, 7:30 pm.

Recalcitrare is Latin for kicking back, to strike with the heels... This will be Kevin's first performance with his company since the surgery and I can tell you its a powerful piece!   More images can be found at my DANCE BLOG
