This week is the second annual Girls Rock! DC summer camp. Girls Rock! DC is a program for girls that "aims to create a supportive, inclusive and creative space for girls to develop their self-confidence, build community, stand up and rock out!" And Rock Out they do!
Last year I photographed the final showcase, which allowed each band to take the stage and rock the 9:30 Club, a 1,200 person live music venue in DC. It was brilliant! The energy in the club was through the roof. All of the bands killed it, and the crowd seemed like they were cheering for the new Miley Cyrus/Jonas Brothers Super Group.

This year, I spent a day at camp and put five bands through an official photo shoot. I requested a lot of energy, and I couldn't be happier with the results! They were all such naturals. I hope they will have me back again next year, I am still laughing thinking about how much fun I had with these Rock N Roll Superstars!

Looking at these photos makes me a) feel so incredibly happy to have spent such an amazing week with everyone and b) miss everybody and everything so much!!! I'm still floating on air I think.
