location and studio dance photo shoots

No two shoots are the same as I always try to tailor each one to the dancer’s age, style, experience and abilities. I will bring a range of creative ideas to each dance portrait photo shoot. But I also think that the best photo shoots are collaborative so I always encourage the dancer to bring their own creative ideas and concepts.

I am a professional dance photographer but not a trained dancer myself (unless you count learning the macarena lol). That said, I have developed an eye for what looks right on camera. You will be able to view the photos as they are taken and make any adjustments you feel are necessary. However, if you would like to bring someone along to assist with this (for example a teacher, tutor or fellow professional) that would be absolutely fine by me.

Location DANCE photo shoots

Location photo shoots can provide fabulous opportunities to create unique, eye catching images. Indoors or outdoors (or a bit of both).

An indoor shoot can be at your home, workplace or studio for instance. Need a particular look? You could rent a space to have your shoot. An Airbnb for example. Or choose an outdoor location. A town or cityscape, a park, garden or beach. Or make the most of the Scottish countryside. There are so many beautiful places to choose from. Whatever you fancy. Somewhere with free public access; or that you own; have rented; or arranged access with the owner.

Get in touch if you need help deciding. I can arrange your shoot somewhere extra special if you prefer. An extra charge will apply. Please get in touch for options and more details.

studio photo shoot options

If you prefer the studio look, with a plain background and studio lighting I can bring my pop-up studio to you. Of course, you will need to have a suitable indoor space available.

Alternatively, I can arrange your shoot at a professional photo studio in Edinburgh, Glasgow or West Lothian. There is an extra charge for this. See ‘optional extras’ in the price info below.

Your own private online photo gallery

After your shoot I’ll process the photos and create your own private online gallery. Password and ssl secured of course. It’s the most convenient way to view your photos and choose your favourites. No need to arrange a follow up viewing appointment. Unless you want one, of course.

My dance portrait and portfolio photo shoot packages include some photos. Which you can receive as prints or printable digital image files. It’s up to you. You can also order more through your online gallery, if you wish. There’s lots of other photo items you can order this way too. Options include photo portfolio books, wall art and promotional items.
