Dance is meditation in movement, a walking into silence where every movement becomes prayer. Bernhard Wosien

The elements of a statement artpiece created between photographer and dancer.

You want something that is a step above recital photos.

Something that doesn't simply show you as a dancer, but something that shows:

Your personality.

Skills.

Emotions.

Passion.

Dedication.

Custom Dance sessions are geared toward more elite dancers with an unbridled enthusiasm for artistic collaboration. Combine your skills with light and composition to create a custom artpiece that can tell a story and evoke emotion.

If you own a dance studio in Mid-Missouri, and you wish to host a custom dance session, or if you are interested in recital photos for your dance studio, please reach out, I would love to talk to you about it!

The Focus on Emotion Project is the marriage of dance photography and fundraising for the Rape and Abuse Crisis Service (RACS) in Central Missouri. The first year was a wild success, photographing 42 dancers and wrapping up in a gallery show held at the Capitol City Cinema in Downtown Jefferson City.

Funds raised for RACS are earmarked for mental health and counseling services for survivors of sexual assault, domestic violence, abuse and stalking. RACS serves nine counties in Central Missouri.

Dance sessions are offered at my home studio, or via group sessions (3-4 dancers in a 3-hour block) hosted by dance studios. 

Each participant pays a $150 fee, and will receive the session, a $250 credit to be used toward purchase of photographic product collection or album (no purchase required), and will be gifted the print chosen to be on display at the Gallery Show in June 2026. these prints are generously donated by Bee Seen Signs.

Currently, we have two group sessions scheduled. Links to register are below. Please keep in mind that each group session is limited to 4 dancers. If your studio is interested in hosting a group session, they will be listed as an event sponsor.
