What I shoot

Dance is fast and unforgiving. The right frame is gone in less than a second, and the lighting on stage is rarely on your side. I shoot with that in mind: long lenses for the front of house, fast glass for the wings, and an editing process that holds skin tone, costume colour and stage lighting together properly.

Dance schools — show photography, dress rehearsals, and parent galleries.
Performers — solo headshots, performer portfolios and editorial sessions.
Theatre productions — performance coverage, cast imagery and marketing visuals.
Competitions — full event coverage at dance festivals and showcases.

How a session works

1. Send a brief. Tell me about the show, troupe, performer or production. WhatsApp, email or the form. I reply personally, usually within 24 hours.

2. We agree the shape. Date, venue, what you need delivered, licensing and timings. You get a clear written quote with no surprises.

3. Shoot day. I turn up early, brief with you on the day, and stay calm in the wings. No fuss.

4. Edits and delivery. Preview images within 48–72 hours. Full edited galleries in 5–7 days for performance work, faster for portrait sessions. Parent galleries set up where it makes sense.

Common questions

Genuinely Kent based. I live and work here, which means short notice availability for schools and theatres in the county is realistic. Travel within Kent and to most of London is included in standard quotes.

Yes. I work with solo performers and small productions just as readily as larger schools. The process is the same — brief, quote, shoot, deliver — and the standard of editing doesn't change.

Yes. I run parent galleries through a secure delivery platform. Parents can view, share and order digitals or prints directly. The school gets a marketing licence on the same gallery.

Preview images within 48–72 hours, full performance galleries in 5–7 days. Portrait sessions are usually delivered inside a week.
