Thanks to my wife, a retired professional ballet dancer from Houston Ballet, I have a great love for ballet. Although never a dancer, I am a student of ballet history and criticism. My wife and I make a unique dance photography team, as I’m able to lean on her professional dance background as well as her expertise in Pilates, Gyrotonic, and private ballet instruction. At our best, together we can create photographs that showcase good form, proper technique, and natural movement—images that can also stand as works of art for those less familiar with dance.
This is tricky! On the one hand, I’ll often love a photograph that dancers will reject out of hand for reasons I can’t even see. On the other hand, I might find a photo that I think tells a story or captures a moment, even if a dancer wouldn’t flag it as a favorite. It’s a delicate balance, and there’s much meaning and joy in that deliberation.
If you’re interested in collaborating with my wife and me to create stunning photographs that artistically highlight your movement, we’d be thrilled to work with you.
