A few more dance photos at a different location.
Dance In Nature
Monday, April 14th, 2025
A few photos of a talented dancer out at one of my favorite outdoor locations. I’ve done a lot of dance photos over the years and I’ve shot a lot of photos out in nature. I like to combine those two things when I can. Most of my dance photos are of modern dance. I’m […]
Dance in Nature
Saturday, May 27th, 2023
I’ve been photographing the nude in nature for more than 20 years. I’ve been photographing dance since 1969. I’ve decided it’s time to merge these two subjects and see what happens. The lovely and talented Michie Bee got me started. I hope to do a lot more of this style of work over the summer. […]
Pas de deux
Tuesday, March 9th, 2021
This photo taken at a Dayton Contemporary Dance Company concert was selected as a finalist the performance category of the Pas de deux dance photography contest. This is an international competition with many amazingly wonderful entries by dance photographers around the world, so I’m very pleased and honored to have been included in the finalists. […]
Up In The Air
Saturday, March 22nd, 2014
I met my friend Lindsay when she was a student dancer at Ohio University when I was doing photos of their dance concerts. She has come to my studio several times to get performance photos done. She is now in Cincinnati and teaches yoga and continues to perform. That all keeps her very busy and […]
Tall Dancing
Sunday, September 29th, 2013
When I retired from the day job some years ago, one of the things I started doing that I hadn’t been able to do when I had to report to work every day, was to start photographing dance again. I fell in love with dance and dance photography way back when I was a […]
As Light As Air
Wednesday, September 14th, 2011
That’s what you think must be the case when you see dancers like these in action. I took this photo in New York City several years ago. I was studying dance photography with Lois Greenfield at her studio there. She brought in some of the best dancers in the world for us to work with. […]
Dance and the D7000
Friday, March 25th, 2011
One of my major motivations for getting the Nikon D7000 was the improvement I thought it would make in what I could do with dance photography. But I really had no idea how huge an improvement it would be over my D200. Now I know. I’ve been shooting dance since the 1960s. Back when I […]
Moving On
Friday, February 5th, 2010
That photo above is literally an iconic image for me. It’s been my icon or avatar image on Model Mayhem since I joined the site. I moved in to that studio in 2000 and did quite a bit of work to fix it up. When it was all painted I looked at it and said, […]
Wishing You A Spooky Halloween
Friday, October 30th, 2009
There’s Theda getting familiar with a very lucky Death. Just wanted to share something in keeping with the season. The trick or treaters, including that cute little boy in the last post, will be coming by looking for candy tomorrow night. I don’t think they’ll get any treats like Death did when he came calling […]
