There's something mesmerizing about dance -
using your body as an instrument
allowing music to flow through

Lindsey Croop:
A ballerina at the Dance Theater of Harlem.
She grew up in Texas,
her career brought her to New York,
and she dreams of someday living in Paris
. . .
We met in Harlem during the early morning hours.
Her poised and calm demeanor set the tone of the shoot.

"Why dance?
It doesn't feel like a question of why.
Dance is not something I feel I chose,
it's my natural reaction - when I hear music playing I have to dance.
i'm just lucky enough that I could make a career of it"
