Recital 2014 - Crystallize

These are the photos I got over the two days of Amber's dance called "Crystallize".  It was choreographed by Steven Mann.  He has a master's degree in jazz dance.  It was a fabulous piece.  Steve had very specific lighting cues for his piece and the light guy had to do the lighting as the number was live on stage.  Turned out perfectly.  The eyes are not quite what Steve wanted as the mother's balked.  He wanted them more stark and angular - but a couple girls had VERY quick changes and no time to do a heavy makeup, so we ended up with what you see here.
