Here are some photos from the bharathanatyam arangetram of Priya Sohoni. The arangetram took place at the Cubberly theatre at Palo Alto. In this post i’ve compiled some of the shots that are ‘symmetrical’ or ‘sequential’. This link (will post soon) has some more photos from the beautiful event.

I had a chance to photograph the bharathanatyam arangetram of Navya Maithri Konda. Such a beautiful event… Right from the lobby to the stage decoration, every minute detail was taken care of.
I also had the opportunity to do the pre-arangetram photo shoot for Navya. You can find pictures of it here. The three dresses, in red, blue and white were fantastic. The accompanying jewellery for each dress was fantastic and complemented the dress so well.

The lobby decoration varied from life sized cut outs, to posters to digital displays. This is a shot of the larger than life sized displays.

This is a picture of one of the 16×20 posters that i made for them.

The performance itself was great ! Navya did a wonderful job that had the packed auditorium giving a standing ovation. She was the 108th graudate of the Shri Krupa Dance Academy (108 is considered a very auspicious number in the Hindu religion.) Here are some shots from the arangetram performance .

Oh here are some shots taken just before the arangetram
