Addie Diaz formed the Addie-Tude Dance Company in 1999. Since then the team has traveled to such places as Hiroshima, Paris, London, Dominican Republic, Zurich and Hawaii. In all that time Addie never had gotten around to setting up a team photo shoot. Most of the pictures she used in the past for publicity purposes were candid shots taken by friends and fellow team members. Finally this past May & June 2002 Addie finally got around to scheduling 2 separate photo shoots with Mambon2.com webmaster Pablo Munoz. Pablo has made a name for himself in the NY area these past few years by creating the ultimate Mambo On2 Dancer Photo Website (Mambon2.com). He started by documenting social dancers at local dance events, then moved onto capturing dance teams in action while performing and finally he has expanded to doing individual and team photo shoots.

Behind the Scenes of the Outdoor Photo Shoot
It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon when Pablo got together with the team for their outdoor shoot this past June 2002 up in Westchester, NY.
