Carmel Jane Photography is the UK’s leading dance and stage photography company, with over 500 regular dance school clients, large and small. We provide a professional, efficient and seamless photo system for your annual dance show.
Pre-Show Dance Portraits
From ballet to body-popping, from tap dance to twerking, from leaping to lyrical, from jumps to jive, our photographers will capture your dancers at their very best. We swing into action to photograph all of the dancers in all of their costumes on the pre-show photo day.
We carefully print and pack the pictures ready to be premiered on show night. Parents can browse the photos in the foyer while they are waiting for curtain up and again during the interval. They just purchase on the night and take the treasured memories home with them.
PRE-SHOW PORTRAITS
Every dancer, every costume, photographed by experienced photographers who highlight the costumes and choreography.
