tiny dancer at sunset
This is actually part of a family session (i’ll post that tomorrow) but I had to make a post just for Gabby and her amazing ballet. If you are a bsquared follower, I hope you’ll remember some of her past photos and her being in THE Nutcracker at Lincoln Center twice. She’s now aged out of Nutcracker (I’m so sad!! But I guess if there’s a good year for that its 2020 since there will be no ballet season anyway) and will continue to dance at NYCB for the next few years hopefully, until they decide if she can be part of the company at 17 or 18. In the meantime, I’ll be asking to photograph her again so I can get my dance fix in.

charlotte {tiny dancer}
My cousin Charlotte (I’d have to ask my sister in law who is the expert on the “level” of cousins, but she’s busy and i don’t want to bother her, so we’ll just say cousin.) just had her first of two virtual dance recitals yesterday for her dance studio, Miss Colleen’s. Her mom asked me to come do a little photoshoot of her in her costumes and make up after the online recital. Not only to commemorate the day and outfits, but because just like everyone else this poor girl has had her fair share of disappointments and cancellations due to the stupid Covid19. No school, no friends, no playdates, no in-person dance class, no recital on stage, no communion, no communion party or dress. No nothing. And apparently she started crying after the online recital because she misses her friends and dancing with them in real life. Just add it to the list of everything else that breaks your heart lately. I hope the session and the pictures cheer her up some, it was fun for me too.
