Ballet Part II • Wakefield RI Photographer
Last weekend I shot the second part of my ballet/dance project. This time my subjects were Dayle and Alice, two delightful young ladies. I had a number of ideas for this shoot. I like to multitask, a lot, you know. My goals: use the gorgeous windows in the studio space (check! Even though the light was fading and it was a gray and rainy day, we were able to use the GORGEOUS windows); use my Lensbaby for some selective focus shots (check!); process some photos to look like old school grainy film black and whites (check! I did this with some of the Lensbaby shots!); and use dramatic light (check! I love love LOVE dramatic light!) Dayle and Alice were fantastic to work with. They came prepared with a number of outfit changes; injected other dance styles into the shoot; and they told me they thought I was about 22. Based on that alone, I'll shoot them again anytime. Scroll down to see some of the photos we got.
