Laura.
This session was one of those sessions that was so fulfilling for me artistically. I have worked with Laura before in studio, and we decided to go for something different on location this time. The beautiful thing is that Laura trusts my artistic process so much and was willing to just try anything I asked of her. These types of sessions are the best. We get to intertwine our arts so collectively and beautifully. It’s pure magic. I love supplying my dancers with frame worthy portrait art, and am so happy with the results of this one in particular. Not only is Laura a stunning dancer, but she is equally lovely as a person. Please enjoy Laura’s ballet session and contact me to book a session for your dancer, senior, or family.

She specializes in ballet, with a vast amount of knowledge about technique and the physiology of the body. She uses that knowledge to push her clients to go further that they thought they could go.

As a former dancers, Emily also knows how to get the shot in very few tries. She can feel when to click the shutter, which allows for a wider variety of photos in the session.
