Last fitting

The Merce Cunningham Company is closing its doors in January. I went to shoot the last costume fitting for Vogue.com


Tools


I had about 10 minutes with the dancers..5 minutes for the fitting and then a quick 5 minute stretch. This is the best picture


Sweet view


A couple of stretch outtakes




The studio


I don't really know anything about dance but the vibe in this place was amazing..you could feel the years of creativity in every room.

Vertical outtakes

Some vertical pictures from September..just sorting through all this stuff now. I didn't post many outtakes in September so I'll do a few of these big posts to get them online.
