Dayton Dance Studio Session

I get so excited every time I get to photograph any type of dance photography. I am a dancer at heart, but only at heart. My actually dance moves are something akin to this…

Ha!

In all seriousness though, I’ve very much enjoyed getting to photograph Paulena dance the last few years. Unlike me, she is so graceful and an absolutely stunning dancer. This year she is preforming her very first solo contemporary piece for competitions. I’m so excited for her! During the photo session, which took place at my downtown Dayton studio, we put on her special solo dance music and she performed it while I shot away. She was breathtaking!
Just WOW!
I could watch her dance all day! I know she’s going to blow everyone out of the water at competition! She’s already won several awards!

She had 5 different outfits for the session that ago with different themed dances. My favorites were the two purple outfits, because of the way the skirts catch her movements. And I’m a total sucker for all things sparkly, lace and tulle! The last two outfits are very Rockette inspired and are super cute too.
Which is your favorite outfit? Comment below and let me know :)
