Backgrounds add Character

Looking for punch in your images? You may have heard the guidance that you should find an interesting location and wait for someone to pass into the frame. Well, what if no one is around? Hire someone or find friends or partner/collaborate with someone who can benefit from your photography.
I did just that with a group os dancers and two photographer friends: Lou Truss and Barb McKenzie.

Many thanks to Ben Jammin, Josee, Rafic and Caroline for posing and dancing for us. If you want to know more about them, they all teach at Dance With Alana, an Ottawa-based dance studio and school.
