Dancing in the street

   Hitesh Salsawala and Harri Mead are fantastic dancers & wonderful people.

For this shoot i asked them to swap the dance studio for the street, apart from the neighbours peaking out the window to see what on earth we were up too and clearing the road for a few passing cars, overall we had fun.

we dance because we can't help it, and we dance to express outwardly what is going on inwardly.

There is something that rises up in the heart of a dancer, something that clapping and singing can't fully express.
