As a dancer Simone has always loved a good dance photo. When she started pursuing photography seriously – eventually going so far as to start her own business – she knew that performance photography (specifically dance) was definitely something she wanted to focus on. “I believe that as a dancer I have a distinct advantage when photographing dance.” says Simone. “Not only do I have the artistic eye of a visual artist, I also understand the intricacies and technical elements of many different kinds of dance. I try to combine the two to create something unique in my photographs.”
This photo was taken during a performance of Paquita by the Alma College Dance Company in Alma, MI. The beautiful young lady performing the principal role in this photograph is a freshman from Jackson, MI named Lindsay.
