Personal Project – Grace
What Is Grace?
Grace is a collaborative photographic project that involves ballerinas and myself working together, in a studio setting, to create beautiful, effortless looking poses that capture the essence of the ballet art form.
What Happens on the Shoot?
Like any of my creative projects, Grace is a real collaboration. I trust the dancer, explicitly, to create beautiful body movements that fit in with the narrative. In turn, while acknowledging my five years experience in dance photography, I ask the dancer to trust me when I tweak certain aspects of a pose to make something more appealing in camera.
Similar to Project Isolate, facial expressions are just as important as body positions so this is something I am always considering to ensure the poses look as evocative as possible.
Where Do the Shoots Take Place?
Northumberland.
Special Thanks
I want to extend a special thank you to the amazing dancers who have helped me so far. To the future dancers who I have yet to work with, I cannot wait to meet you!
Dance Portraits
Although Grace is an ongoing personal project, due to the interest from dancers of various ages and experience levels, I have created a spin-off dance photoshoot package available to all.
If you are interested in this package, please contact me here.
