BETTER DANCE PHOTOS start here.
Dance photos you’ll actually use.
If you’ve been dancing for a while, I bet you have some dance photos that you’d like to forget. A sickled foot, an unstretched leg, an out-of-focus jump shot, a positively unflattering angle. It’s possible your photos were taken by someone lacking expertise in dance technique.
You’ve made it this far in your training – why hold back now? My style of dance photography is intentional; a marriage of good technique and artistry. I take the time to refine poses during your shoot, correcting lines and angles for the camera.
Your dance photos should meet and compliment your training. If you’re looking for a photographer immersed in all things dance, you’ve found your match.
MEET MOVITA aka Rachael
I know dance.
I’m Rachael Dyer, also known as Movita Beaucoup. I am a dance photographer based in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Before launching my photography business, I taught dance in Toronto and the Maritimes for close to 30 years.
As a former dancer and teacher, I know and appreciate the work it takes to progress as a dancer. I always do my best to capture your dedication with my camera.
I’VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR A WHILE
Photographing dancers who value showcasing technique and artistry since 2016.
SESSIONS FOR DANCERS
INDOORS AND OUTDOORS
I offer a variety of full-length sessions for individuals and small groups (dancing friends). In-studio, outdoor, and audition/cv/portfolio sessions.
Outdoor, on-location shoots allow you to express yourself through your location choice and wardrobe.
Studio photo shoots are an essential element of dance portfolios. Sessions take place in a rented dance studio space in HRM and utilise professional lighting (strobes/flash) and seamless paper backdrops.
STUDIOS/COMPANIES/ORGS
SESSIONS FOR STUDIOS
Your dancers and faculty work hard, train hard, and show up every day. The photos you commission for your dance organisation should reflect that dedication and demonstrate your talent and passion for dance.
SHORT AND SWEET
MINI SESSIONS
Shorter, budget friendly sessions in HRM and on-the-road. These are my most popular sessions offered both indoors and outdoors, with a limited number of spots offered for each event.
