Videography & Photography

Intro

The Dance Academy is a Bucks County dance studio dedicated to instilling the love of dance in all of their students and have been doing so since 1987 through the art direction of Mrs. Donnajean Kline and her talented, caring, and friendly staff. The studio contacted me by referral in June of 2023 looking for a last minute replacement videographer for the studio’s yearly dance revue. This proved to be a fairly large production with many moving parts, lighting changes, and sound quality challenges. They enjoyed my work so much they’ve brought me back every year since.
