My lovely daughter Freya is following in her mum’s footsteps by taking ballet classes at the Julie Young Dance Studios in Perth. She’s been attending for a few months now and loves it -more often than not, reticent to take off her uniform when she gets back home! Anyway, Julie asked me if I wouldn’t mind photographing her pretty ballerinas this week as a wee christmas treat so we turned up a bit early and rigged up a quick two point lighting setup and photographed the girls as they arrived for class. They all did incredibly well and turned on the Christmas cheer for their portraits under the direction of Julie and her nigh on endless supply of festive props!

Too cute. Nice work on the background.
Thanks for that Dale! Couldn’t figure why the OOF lights were stronger in some shots than others, realised the lights were dimming on a timer!
Wow, this is incredible. Not very often do you come across a photographer who shoots fim. All I will say is hats off for you really. Amazing work! I would be a walking nervewrack if you were to hand me a film camera:)
Thanks for your kind words! Film’s really easy to work with – honest! The secret lies in finding a good lab and having a good dialogue with them.
