Dance for the River. Donnaha access

September 16, 2016

In the third shoot from my yearlong series "Dance for the River", I worked with students from UNCSA Dance and am never surprised by what they are capable of. While I imagined quieter images of one or two dancers, my first shoot with them was a group of six. Garrett Parker, a senior at UNCSA is coordinating all the dancers for me and he has said the response is huge at the school. Over 60 students signed up for this first shoot! Who knows, one of the next shoots could incorporate everyone that signs up!

Donnaha access is on the Yadkin/Forsyth county line. It is a very well used access point for boaters, fisherman and Hispanic families that use the access for cooking out and swimming.

It's pretty subtle, but I'm glad I caught the girl in far background kicking up in response to the dancer.

.. as we were setting up this shot, a group of jeeps that had been at the edge of river drove off. Bummer.
