Dance Photographer recommendation (London area) - for professional dancer, not student

[JulieW]

Recommendations please for good, but preferably not extortionately expensive  , dance photographers in the London area.  For new company audition shots for a male professional dancer.

 

Many thanks

ASH does a lot of dance photography and is London based. The two people involved are Amber Hunt (an ENB dancer) and her partner Arnaud Stevenson. http://www.balletphotography.co.uk

Martin Bell, who was one of my favourite dancers at Northern Ballet, is based in Hampshire and takes wonderful photographs.

 

Here is the link to his dance photography page

Thanks all - keep them coming if there's any more.  I'm in no rush to need them, just planning ahead and wanted to start looking into it......

My dd has had photos taken by Derwood Pamphillon....he's based in Bristol but has a website and is branching out into portfolios for dancers. I know my dd would recommend him (and his photos are fantastic).

This photographer is great.  I first met him because he is a friend of the parents of pupils (3 sisters).  He did a great portfolio for DD, and also does outside events including dogs, Julie!

Thank you, Janet.

Thanks so much everyone - that's plenty to go on.  We had Tim Cross at school and I wasn't overly impressed at the time - but in hindsight I think that was probably due to the rushed nature (the students didn't have much time each with him) of the session rather than anything else.

Tim Cross took photos of my DD last week.  He was fabulous.  He brought his girlfriend with him who is a BRB dancer and they both gave her fabulous corrections (it was like having a private class) and the photos are absolutely wonderful.  Definitely the best I could have hoped for.  The same sort of quality as older DD's WL school photos

I recommend Jim Markland he is an amazing photographer. He has photographed dancers for us that danced with top USA Company's.

I’m a London based photographer who has experience working with the likes of Ed Sheeran, Lily Allen etc. at festivals across the UK. Recently, I’ve ventured into portrait photography and I’m offering headshots and other portfolio shots for the very competitive price of £75 (inc. digital copies of photos). So that’s £75 for what could be your whole book.

 

Prints and post-production come at extra cost.

Hello Jack and welcome to the Forum.  Thank you for letting us know about your services.

 

In accordance with the Forum's Acceptable User Policy could you please add a signature to your profile?

That said, we are not an advertising hoarding and repeated postings of the same or similar information will not be tolerated, nor frivolous posts which merely seem designed to get the company name ‘up there’. Nor will we allow vendors to use BalletcoForum as their shopfront: if you have a selling business you should use your own website for trade and market testing, not this one.

 

Members who have commercial interests must indicate that by adding a Signature line to their postings, stating the name and type of their business and giving their website and/or business email address for enquiries. (You set up a Signature via My Settings in the dropdown menu under your name.) If members wish to contact businesses, associate schemes or other commercial enterprises this should be done via the vendor’s website or email, not by starting threads on the forum.

 

Problems arising over transactions entered into between members are not the responsibility of BalletcoForum.

 

Links to your personal or commercial site We don’t allow members to draw attention to pages on their own websites constructed from freely available material (such as YouTube videos) where there is no significant added value to make the page useful to readers.

In addition, the use of BalletcoForum as a regular conduit to your own website or blog is not acceptable. An occasional link is permissible but habitually including links (more than once or twice in a week) is not. It is however quite in order to include a link to your site or blog in a signature line (as detailed above for commercial users)."
