Most ballroom dancers, especially those who have competed in Dancesport, have  a collection of numerous photos of themselves, while in costume on the dance floor, taken by professional photographers who are always present at ballroom dance competitions.  Most photos most likely go into a special keepsake album, or get placed into a photo frame and hung on the wall.  Orlando ballroom professional, Michael Dean, has taken his secondary-career of photography and framing and turned it into an art that can be both useful and unique for framing those precious dance photos of yours. 

Michael Dean, also known as "The Dance Doctor, MD," has developed methods for hand-cutting the names of ballroom dances into the framing matting, which will frame your photos in a style that is one-of-a-kind and very attention-grabbing.  Each one is hand-cut and can be in any color you want.  Take a look below at some examples of this great, new idea!  You can purchase the mats from the BunzByChaCha.com website.  And yes, Cha-Cha dancing does give the body great Bunz!   

Michael Dean, who is dual certified by the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing and is a member of the National Dance Council of America, has been teaching ballroom in the Orlando area for twenty years and is highly respected in the dance community among other ballroom professionals and students.  He is available for private and semi-private group lessons.  You can contact him through the BunzByChaCha Facebook page, or visit the BunzByChaCha website to see more about his framing and other ballroom merchandise.
