You work is gorgeous. It’s as good as some photogs I’ve seen and been around.

The second to last photo is the best. His expression is just awesome!

Thanks you guys! I’m hoping to catch the Kylian work too – Smuin Ballet really couldn’t have been nicer.

Great photos, Jolene! That’s so cool that they invited you to rehearsal and gave you the interview and let you take pics! Wow! The season sounds fascinating — I’ll be excited to hear what you think of the Kylian in particular — I’ve never seen that one before.

Thanks everyone! It’s always fun when you get a bunch of dance bloggers together.

sfmike – the compliment is especially well-taken coming from you. I’m always an admirer of your gorgeous photos, and it looks like your camera took better to the lighting in the studio than mine did. I had to amp up the light a lot for my photos.

I think your photos are gorgeous, especially if you double-click and get them full size. Yes, only 10% of them turn out well because there is so much movement, but that’s true for anyone. I’m quite impressed.
