I only had a brief time to create some dance portraits for Larkin but it was worth it. I had an image in my mind of her standing near a window and she did wonderful!

Her friendly demeaner and striking blue eye resulted in working with her being a pleasure

Dance portraits for Rebecca in Chicago Summer 2021
As a photographer of dance and theater, I can tell pretty fast who is comfortable in front of a camera. Rebecca is one of those dancers.

She is experienced beyond her years and was a pleasure to have in front of my camera

One of the many things I love about her is her speed and confidence in making a location her own. The above photograph was on a bridge in downtown Chicago! She made it her own with no hesitation.

Here’s another example of her and Nata on top of a bridge with at least one fan noticing.

I love dance photography and the people who live it day in and out. During a recent recital dance portrait session, I had the opportunity to create some dance “family” portraits. While everyone here may not be related, they probably know each other better than if they were.
Part of the reason why this opportunity existed is something was planned. Once of the dancers needed to be distracted while something was setup.. You can see how this unfolded above. Good news: she said yes! (they are good friends). Being there to capture this special moment was priceless!
I was also able to capture some great portraits at the same time!

I’ve been working with Showbiz Kidz Dance Studio for many years. In fact both of my daughters attended there as dancers long ago!
Last year like many dance studios was different becasue of Covid. There were no formal dance portraits last year. In fact there was no recital for this dance studio last year!
I’m very happy with how the dance portraits turned out this year! Above is only a small sample of some of the many portraits I was able to create for all the fantastic dancers. These are the older dancers. In another post, I’ll highlight some of the younger ones!

Like many dance studios, they were deeply impacted by the pandemic. They didn’t perform a traditional recital this year but still wanted to capture the extreme talents of all the dancers
I normally don’t have the pleasure of photographing them. They’re regular photographer took ill and I was glad they reached out to me and I was available!
They are all extremely talented dancers and I was honored to be able to photograph them. It would have been nice to photograph them with studio lights but given the pandemic, they requested only dance studio images.
Know someone who can benefit from dance photography? I offer the following types of dance photography:

It felt soooo good to have a dancer in front of my camera again. My Spring is normally filled with recitals but not in Covid 2020.
Lucy’s mom said this was the first year she was on the dance competition team and was so looking forward to her recital. She had all the outfits and wanted some nice photographic memories. I don’t blame her.
When Lucy started posing in her first costume, she said it was from the Dalmations. I said “Oh your a dog? Let’s see you beg?” And this is the adorable pose she did for me

From there the cuteness went even higher if that’s even possible!

Then we settled into the session and went for more candids and artistic poses. I love this one!
