After a year of social distancing and cancelled events, it was wonderful to get to watch these young ladies dance their hearts out. It had been a few years since I had been able to attend a PSD Stars By Erin dance recital so I was very excited to attend. And I was not disappointed. There were several young ladies I remembered from years past. But also many new faces too. 

DSC00214 I decided years ago, my favorite kind of dance is ballet. I love watching the flowing dresses while the dancers gracefully swirl on their toes. And this year ballet dancers didn't disappoint. My second favorite is tap. I remember as a little girl getting shiny white or black shoes that would click clack when I walked and I would pretend I knew how to tap. But truthfully, I never took a single dance class. Oh how I wish I had.

And while a few of them have graduated or no longer dance, finding a familiar face out their twirling, always brings a smile to my face.  I'm impressed to see how much they have improved as dancers from years prior.

Finally, I have been wanting to do a special project with my daughter Jen if she is feeling strong enough. I am wanting to photograph some of the girls doing their routine but outdoors on a country road as the sun is setting. If your daughter and her friends are interested in doing something like this, please let me know.

Good job ladies!  And thank you Erin for all the hard work you put into these talented dancers. To purchase photos ($2 per digital download - helps pay for host site), click here.
