I dance because it makes me happy.

I dance for my health.

I dance to be closer to the divine.

I dance because it makes me feel beautiful.

I dance to celebrate life!

Why do you dance?

I'd like to know. I'm going to be embarking on a photo project where I'd like to explore this question. How will this work, you ask? The project will involve a portrait of you, the dancer. You will be asked to wear your favorite costume or dance gear. After about a 30 minute session in front of my lens, you will be asked to complete the sentence, " I dance..." I will then digitally incorporate your quote into your image to create a finished piece. The end goal is to have a "photo essay" of sorts that can be shown at various venues.

What I'd like to know is:

Are you interested in participating in this project?

You will receive a finished digital copy of your image as a thank you for your participation. I used to dance, and sometimes still do. I know what dance meant and means to me. I dance because it makes me happy. Why do you dance?

Watch for further details.

**Please message me with your contact information if you'd like to participate.**
