Embarking on the journey of dance photography is a captivating exploration where the fusion of two art forms—dance and photography—creates moments of sheer magic. As a Brisbane based dance photographer, I would like to share some of my tips to create magazine-quality photos for our dancers.
Communication is Key
The essence of dance photography lies in constant communication. Work collaboratively with the dancer, refining each pose until both the dancer and I are satisfied. Achieving the perfect blend of artistic movement and precise photography is the secret to crafting high-quality dance images.
Timing is Everything
Acknowledge the physical demands of dance. Schedule regular breaks to rejuvenate the dancer's energy. Dance moves for a photo can be exhausting, especially without music. A short pause allows for hydration and ensures the dancer remains engaged and vibrant throughout the session. It is also a good chance for me to review what we have done and plan for the next stage of the photoshoot.
Embrace the Power of Black and White
While black and white is not my signature style in my other photography works, it shines in dance photography. The absence of color minimizes distractions, highlighting the dancer's lines, postures, and emotions. Embrace the timeless elegance of black and white to accentuate the beauty of each movement is my secret go-to style.
For parents capturing the talent of their young dancers, these tips are invaluable.
