CI IA
The 1st ever (so we think) CONTACT IMPROVISATION IOWA (CIIA) - was a great success. It was an absolute pleasure to bring nearly 30 dancers to Luther College in Decorah, IA for this first annual festival of Contact Improv.
Here are a few visual highlights to entice you to join us next year...
We spent some time out at Twin Springs-dancing, laughing, singing, taking sensation walks... It was beautiful!
Jenn in the river
Moab, UT
This freezing cold water served as the perfect partner to my fearless model, Jenn. She jumped in, slipped in (oops) and was almost carried away by the mighty current. Here are a few of the joyous moments captured. I especially love the water frozen over her skin, caught forever. The feeling of pleasure and "Holy $hi%! that's cold!" resonate with me every time I see this series of images. Thanks for braving the cold H20, JRS. (May 2015)
my very first blog post!

I built a website!
It really happened - thanks to Rebecca Cahill for getting me started with square-space (she also has a beautiful website of her own; and she's a pretty sweet artist/musician/designer/friend). On this site, I'm hoping to build my photo network, expand my portfolio and share my work as a dancer, choreographer & camera man. It's so exciting! Thanks for visiting and taking a look around. Please come back SOON as I hope to be blogging on a more regular basis.
What else is happening? Some fun summer shoots, backyard bonfires, gardening growth, wedding planning and MORE!
Here's what's happening next: http://www.luther.edu/contact-improv/festival/ A place to gather, learn & dance to our heart's content. REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN:
