The moment


When I saw this scene I knew it was not going to be a "pretty" shot, but I felt a connection. The three people looking at the camera kind of slowed down their dance for me to take the photo, but at the same time they were still doing their thing. I believe they knew they were making a good image. It was a rare opportunity where the moment stopped in front of me, instead of trying to run away from the camera.

When I arrived at this club I knew it was going to be a slow night. Not very many people were there. The bartender also agreed with my opinion. While waiting for things to pick up a little more I ordered a drink, talked to a few people and wondered around as if I were not working. The clubs had a cool set up of lights, which was very helpful. The fact that the night was slow for shooting portraits I have had more time to explore other facets of the night club.
