men in tights

we spent last friday in a dance studio with mister ‘ruud baan’ shooting the first of the new poster image series for the dutch national ballet (season 12-13)

many thanks to everyone who helped to make it a successful day, including firstly ruud of course but also the dancers (‘anna tsygankova’ from russia, ‘james stout’ from canada, ‘anatole babenko’ from russia, ‘sebastien galtier’ from france and ‘jared wright’ from australia) and my clients ‘ted and sandra’ who all worked very hard to make the image we wanted…

it was quite an unusual idea this one and i’ll post some more image as soon as we have sorted it all out, should be great when finished i think
