My family’s first competition of the season was this past weekend. We are all exhausted, but everyone did great and I even got a wedding in on Saturday. One highlight of the weekend, at the very last awards ceremony at the end of the last day, and thus at the fringes of sanity, was the Dad Dance Competition. My immediate assumption – that I was going to be immune from this spectacle – was quickly shattered as I spy Max rushing at me from the stage. Max begat the dance moms seated nearby (if only I was still sitting alone in prime shooting position…) which begat the awards host attention which ultimately begat yours truly as Dad #4. After surely being served by the first three dads, I did the only thing I could think of – which was absolutely nothing. I was all freaky show but no go. As luck would have it, this particular category was judged solely by audience decibel level – and the kids from Stella’s and PE2 put a deafening beatdown on the rest of that auditorium. Not only was I treated to chants of “Tony! Tony! Tony!” but I even got my own dance: The Tony Schreiber - it looks like a robot taking pictures.
As a really big thank you to all the performers, I’ve put super special pricing on the 2010 and 2009 Dance Galleries. These are some of my favorite shots from Showcase 2010 and 2009 and Premiere 2009. Stuff like this:

Belief, 2009
from Showcase 2009 and Premiere 2009, and images like this from Showcase 2010:

Breath of Heaven, 2010
What does super special pricing mean? Un-watermarked downloads for only $2 (1mp) and $3 (4mp) and 8×12 prints for only $6 (lustre) and $8 (metallic). On top of that, because I still can’t believe any one would chant “Tony! Tony! Tony!”, I’ve added a coupon that works until next week (3/1/2010) for an additional 10% – just use coupon code DAD4. Proceeds from your order go to Illusion Dance Company.
