I had the pleasure to photograph my salsa dance instructor, Adan Pulido, and his fiancé, Irene Kleinbouer. I wanted to try some white background shots but I was really looking forward to use the smoke machine with color gels. They were a pleasure to work with and very patient. They also had some creative ideas for posing. I’m pleased with the results and I think they are too. 

You can check out Adan’s classes at Cubanissimo and KleinArts Studio in Orcutt, and Irene owns KleinArtStudios, where she offers a multitude of dance classes for  every style.
