"Upskirt photos"? Really? That's what you think they are? That's absolutely a mischaracterization of his photos. Hardly an "upskirt" photo in there, not even close.

"One has to ask, where are their parents?" Right there, along side the photo shoot, watching their dancer have the time of their life and forever document their passion and talent.
"What's with the no sock look and spray tan to ankles?" Now you are going to shame the dancers - AKA children in the photo shoot? Did they ask for your critique? How about post a school photo of your child and let us bash how they styled their hair. Talk about inappropriate.

Why has this forum become a ground for parents, hiding behind anonymity, to bash others - dancers, children, parents, vendors, photographers? Please consider before you post: Is it helpful? Is it kind? Is it necessary? Your post is a flat out NO to all of these.

Lee is an absolute professional, talented photographer, wonderful human, who appreciates the beauty and talent of Irish Dancers and showcases that in his work. To start dragging this very wonderful human through the mud is uncalled for. If you do not like his photos, don't hire him. But to start insinuating immoral or inappropriate intentions is absolutely uncalled for and you should be ashamed of yourself.

And we wonder why girls grow up with self esteem problems - it clearly starts with the body shaming by their Mothers. Just stop it.
