This weekend I photographed a close friend and amazing belly dancer, Mira Betz. She was a true pleasure to photograph. I love being able to take some time to do fun projects while I am not shooting weddings or family portraits. We shot mostly at my house, which is being rebuilt because it caught fire in 2007. Although it was a little tricky working in the attic, the light was awesome, and it was a lot of fun.

Mira Betz lives just down the street from me. She is an amazing belly dancer, and a wonderful artist (and a good friend). I cruised over to her place to hang out the day before yesterday. She is in town for a couple of days in between touring. Talk about one hard working lady. Just back from Canada, Venezuela, and I can’t keep track of all the places, she is off again tomorrow for I don’t even know where.

Performance Spotlight!! Mira Betz at Split Tribal Fest 2012

I first found Mira Betz while watching the performance DVD Tribal Revolution from Hollywood Music. She performed a “Cabaribal” piece to Bound by Dan Cantrell. I was absolutely mesmerized.
