"Dazzling." -- Vanity Fair
"Extraordinary photographs of dancers in flight... As a dance
photographer, Greenfield is not concerned with choreography or
characters. She's looking for the expressive potential of the
dancer's body buzzing on freedom.... Greenfield coaxes from them a
seductive balance of wildness and calm. Their bodies float, swim,
dive and spiral, but their facial expressions are composed and
introspective. In the most intriguing, secretive pictures, it's as
if we're watching the dancers dream. We're seeing that moment when
the dream whips them around and spins right out of them, and in our
minds, perhaps, we catch a little of how that feels." - Washington
Post
"Inspiring for their technical excellence, the framing and
lighting, the choice of props, and the lithe dancers, these
high-quality, large-format photos combine with an elegant layout to
create a beautiful book. The artistic use of color, form, and
movement in the photos can be appreciated by anyone; no dance
background required. Greenfield's talent for knowing exactly when
to click the shutter makes many of the pictures truly
breathtaking." --Library Journal
