Valentine’s Day is about love in all its forms — passion for dance, confidence, self‑expression, and joy. At Dabour Photography, Valentine Portrait Sessions are designed to celebrate those moments with a fine‑art approach that blends movement, emotion, and a touch of whimsy.

This year, I created a series of Valentine‑themed dance portraits with Lucy to showcase what these sessions can look like. Using flowing costumes, heart‑inspired props, and clean studio lighting, each image highlights both artistry and personality.

Whether added onto a full Fine Art Portrait Session or booked as a short Valentine Mini Session, these portraits are perfect for dancers who want something expressive, elegant, and fun.

What Are Valentine Portrait Sessions?

Valentine Portrait Sessions are studio portraits styled around themes of love, movement, and emotion. Think reds, pinks, soft whites, flowing fabrics, and heart‑inspired props — all designed to complement dance technique and storytelling.

These sessions are:

  • Perfect for dancers of all ages
  • Great as a keepsake or gift
  • Styled with professional lighting and artistic direction
  • Designed to feel playful, confident, and timeless

Below are six sample portraits created during Lucy’s Valentine session. Each image highlights a different mood — from graceful and elegant to playful and bold.
