WHY CHOOSE US!
We Specialize In Photographing DANCE!
Photographing dance is different than anything else. We have to account for a wide variety of ages and skill levels. We also need to get the poses correct, and understand what a "correct" dance pose is, make sure the costumes look good, and get great smiles! Photographing dance is a specialty and our team is one of the best at it. Not all photographers are capable of working with dancers and children. This is what we do, and we are very good at it.Dance Shots has specialized in dance studio photography for over 12 years. We have photographed at many dance studios, we continue to do their photography year after year and have photographed thousands of dancers of all ages over the years. We have built our reputation as one of the BEST dance photography studios in Toronto. Most of our business is a direct result of referrals from other studios.
We Shoot on WHITE Backgrounds!
Most photographers shy away from shooting on white as it is much more complicated and difficult to shoot on, or they try and don't get good results. We have developed a way to shoot on white and we specialize in it. We were one of the very first studios to do this, and we perfected it. Others have tried to do what we do but they just don't know how.
What does this mean to you? Your costumes are never hidden; in fact they are the center of attention. We prefer to shoot on a solid white background for a few reasons. First, to showcase the colours and costume design, and not take away from them. Second, it won’t clash with any of the colours in the costumes. We also, we avoid the wrinkles and dark backgrounds that the traditional cloth backgrounds often cause. Take a look at our galleries and see for yourself how vibrant your dancers could look!- We Cater to YOUR Studio Needs!
We will work with you and your studio to set-up a schedule and time frame that works best for you. We will arrive and work to keep you on schedule during the photo day so that you don’t have to worry about anything at all. We work with you and your parents, to ensure a smooth photo day.
