So my kids have always been my biggest inspiration when it comes to photography…I get ALL of my ideas by watching them, and photographing them, so it comes as no surprise to me that this ballet idea popped into my head. Somehow, after 11 years of having three little girls (none of who have been in ballet) I have found myself with 2 out of 3 of my girls in ballet this year! I feel like I spend all of my time at the ballet studio, and MUCH to my surprise, I’m finding myself LOVING it! I love the feel of the school, the music, the girls of all ages both seriously training, and little ones just happy to be in their cute outfits… basically the overall atmosphere! And then the idea came….I would LOVE to photograph ballet dancers in their simple leotards and tights, in a natural dancing environment! I had a very specific image in my head of what I wanted these to look like, so I took my oldest and my youngest in to the studio the other day and played…my oldest is 11 and just started this year, so she’s not in toe shoes yet, but I still LOVE the way these turned out!
So here’s the deal…I’m offering 20 minute mini sessions this Friday and Saturday (Oct 3 and 4th) at my studio…$175.00 per session…includes a $50 print credit. Very limited spots available…email soon!!! lindablackwell@rgv.rr.com
