This is the stuff of my dreams. These two dancers, this location, the lighting, everything. Ever since beginning my ballerina series, I’ve been dreaming of photographing a pas de deux, or a pair of dancers together. Truthfully, I was nervous going into this session- so excited that I was finally having the chance to fulfill a dream, and scared that I was going to mess it up somehow. Our original location had to be scrapped due to rain, so we booked a studio at the last minute and somehow, it turned out even better than I’d hoped for. A Romeo & Juliet sort of feel, what with Christa’s blush, flowy dress.

Caleb & Christa, you both were amazing. Thank you so much for driving such a long way to help me bring my vision to life! Photographing you was, quite literally, a dream come true! Let’s do this again soon- next time in New York? Yes? Yes.
