The holiday season just wouldn't be complete without the magic of The Nutcracker! So I was thrilled to be asked by the North County Dance and Performing Arts Foundation to capture their 26th annual production of this wonderful ballet at the Spanos Theater on the Cal Poly campus in San Luis Obispo. This amazing production included a cast of over 60 performers from children through adults, along with dedicated directors, choreographers, crew, and volunteers. It truly take a village to make a show like this come to life, and all the effort paid off in a gorgeous show. Who doesn't love the beautiful music of Tchaikovsky along with tutus, pointe shoes, and even snow???!!!


I hope you enjoy checking out a few of my favorite images from NCDPAF's Nutcracker 2022. Congratulations to all on a marvelous production!
