The 17th annual 2023 Dancing with the Stars was the largest since 2016 with over 600 attendees.

I’m proud to be the official photographer of the foundation to capture all the drama and goodwill. The money raised benefits the patient services and programs dedicated to helping children and adults living with kidney disease.

The National Kidney Foundation Of Arizona!

The gala and signature dance competition took place at The Phoenician in Scottsdale and was performed by the National Kidney Foundation of Arizona’s community superstars partnered with professional dance instructors. The energy was unmatched and one of my favorite Scottsdale events of the year.
