New Orleans Second Day - Break Dancers
PHOTOS TAKEN 03-18-24.
When my husband said I could tag along on his work trip to New Orleans, I was filled with excitement and immediately started planning where I could take photos. I was in New Orleans before Katrina when I was 20. I was touring with my band, and we were able to walk up and down bourbon street with some strippers who came to our show and let us crash at their place for the night. Needless to say, I didn’t get the full NOLA experience back then. I made it a point to make sure we really got to soak up the city and everything we could experience. I tried to capture the creepy vibes and all the colorful buildings and graffiti. All of the amazing architecture, food, culture, etc.
Day 2 (Jackson Square Break Dancers) - While taking pictures at the Cathedral in Jackson Square, I saw three guys setting up to do a performance. They announced they were the greatest break dancing show you’ll ever see. I stuck around and decided to try and get some shots. I am glad I stuck around! These guys were great, and they were super personable and funny. This was my first venture in taking break dancer photography. I feel I did a pretty good job on these, and it makes me want to hop on the train here from NJ to NYC one of these weekends to take pictures where it all started!
