The South Elgin High School varsity dance team returned for a third year to get some artistic images in our 3, 250 sq foot studio in Crystal Lake, iL.

We got some fun full team shots, and then knocked out some class group shots on the white hi-shine marley against a white backdrop.

The studio has a number of options for dance teams to choose from with their settings within the studio. I also had a red paperback drop setup as that was their high school team color. Our other options are the black marley and backdrop, which we used for the fog shots, and also an urban corner and a reclaimed wood backdrop.

One of the things I really enjoy is my ability to capture the peak moment when a dancer does a leap. Each dancer is unique in how they do a leap, so I quickly have to assess how each dancer moves in the leap, and time the snap accordingly.

High school teams can come to my studio for photo shoots, or we can do them on location in the summer or fall. Some teams do both. I also offer rain sessions in my studio and color powder sessions for individuals and teams in Jan/Feb and June/July. HIgh school dancers can also hire me for individual artistic dance sessions in the studio, individual dance shoots on location, or senior portraits.
