Portland has a great swing dance community and they came together to host the 2008 Portland Lindy Exchange. Some of you might remember the pictures from the 2006 exchange here. I can’t believe it has been two years!
I was able to attend all three nights, however, the second night was right after a fantastic but long wedding I shot, so I didn’t bring my camera that night. Since I have not been out dancing as much lately, I didn’t take as many photos but rather took advantage of the great crowds and got my dancing fix in. Despite that, there are still over 200 photos.

Thanks for the photos Evrim. Liz got one photo of me but other than that, these are the only ones of me. Thanks. 🙂
Thanks for sharing your photos. It was nice dancing with you. I’ll see you soon.
Really beautiful!! I was so hoping to find one of me….simply because your photos are so well composed. But no such luck….next time maybe.
Incredibly fantastic photos. You make it all look so incredibly glamorous. 🙂
Hooray! My mom sent me this page… and the circles cross again.
Gorgeous! Thanks for sharing your work. I missed the exchange, so it was great to see it through your lens ; )
