tonight’s final shoot with Ilan

Posted on March 2, 2010

the last butoh dance shoot tonight was a minor nightmare with strobes and synch, but the struggle as always was well worth it… I saw very fine images on all cameras… different perspectives and imagery that had to be grabbed, but fine images…. we shot for more shadow and silhouette than previously…. an image below from Jenny.
