We had a wonderful set of school plays this year, and this is a collection of images from the wonderful evening with the Musicman!

It also serves as a test for embedding video..so bear with me while I work out the details! If you have any problems viewing or enjoying the video stream let me know so I can try and work out a fix with my service providers, Squarespace and Smugmug.

Enjoy the work of a wonderful cast, crew and production team! As always I try my best in these types of parent shares to get as many participants seen as possible.

If you enjoy my work please help support my habit and mission of Capturing His Glory in the faces and places we live. If you see anything here on this site you like, please contact me and I can help you take it home! I remain available for assignments in a wide array of photographic missions! Please contact me using the button above and let me see if I can help you build a piece of art!

Our school put on one of my two favorite musicals this year....Musicman! If there ever was a show I'd want to be the male lead in, it would be this one! The directors did a great job with the kids on this production. Having been in plays in high school, and our class production at West Point for 100th Night, I am ever in awe with how much work everyone puts into making such a fantastic night.

The teachers and cast turned an old stage into a place of magic for this old soul for just a little while.

For right now I can say I have three of my children who performed on stage for the first time tonight. My daughter did her favorite thing...sing and dance. One special music teacher has my big girl singing with confidence for the first time in her life, and it is a blessing from heaven to see her smile when she sings! One teacher let my daughter dance, and taught her to act. Another teacher took my sons...one who did not act and one who is a natural...and brought out something special in each for a night they are taking into next year in the lower school play.

More later...late night is just about done. I just got all the photos ready to push out to parents from both upper and lower school performances. Only a couple hours of work...learning a lot of tricks and techniques building my style and processing plans. It really is my only contribution to the work the teachers and kids put into it. I hope they like the album and can just sit back and enjoy their hard work with these memories I give them tonight.
