Athens Georgia dance photographer.

Glamorous and feminine ballet photos. Elegant ballerina portrait sessions with a dance wardrobe to highlight your grace and athleticism. In studio or outside romantic dance portraits with a focus on soft florals and feminine colors that still show off your muscle tone and skill. Years of experience working with answers allows me to understand what makes a good ballet photo. Classical posing mixed with contemporary lighting makes for modern yet timeless elegance in the resulting photos.

I'm Heather Larkin. I'm a photographer in Athens Georgia specializing in vibrant and fun photography for dancers and ballerinas.

My Dancer Photography

I make sure that your dance photos are not only unique and exciting, but also as technically perfect as possible. Take a look at my dance photography gallery for more examples, or the urban dancers gallery if you're not into florals.

My style is colorful and fun. Vibrant photos are important to show off the real character of your passion for dance. I am known for being patient and taking the time to get a perfect photo that shows off all the skill you or your dancer have worked so hard to attain. The poses we pick will not only complement the dancer but the locations. The lighting and poses will also show off all that muscle tone that takes so much time and skill.

Ballet Photo Pricing

My prices are transparent and posted on my website for you to see at any time. You'll get downloadable digital images from me, but also the option to purchase printed items. Turning the thick pages of a leather-bound album or standing in front of a beautifully framed wall print makes the portraits so much more real than scrolling through your tiny phone screen. See my Pricing Page for full information with pictures and videos of products.

Dance Photo Shoot Locations

Urban, studio, or nature? You pick based on your personality and wardrobe!

Dance Audition Photography

As a dancer, admission into ballet summer intensives and dance companies depends on a good audition photo. Usually directors want to see a clean and technically perfect first arabesque. Ballet audition photos are best in-studio to reduce unneeded clutter around the dancer.

Dance School Photography

If you are a dance school owner or director, offering your dancers and their families spring or fall photos in their dance costumes can be part of the services your families love at your dance school. I will come and set up in your own dance studio, and families will get three poses to choose images from.

Dance Headshot Photography

In addition to audition photos, a good dance headshot is required for many companies and summer intensives. Directors want to be able to see the dancer's face, and a clean, simple headshot is crucial.

Dance Event and Recital Photography

As a dance photographer, I can also say that I also enjoy photographing ballet recitals and dance events. You can book me to photograph your next theater production.
