Studio Sessions

In the competitive world of professional dance, your image can make all the difference. Whether you're preparing for auditions or building your personal brand, nothing leaves a lasting impression quite like professional dance photography. Partnering with someone who understands the dance industry on a professional level is the next best step.

With my background in professional dance, I bring more than just photography skills to the table—I offer guidance as a teacher, too. I know what dancers aspire to, what directors are seeking, and how to help you shine.

Personal Branding

Want to make your feed stand out? Personal branding is as essential for dancers as it is for any small business—it helps you captivate your audience and tell your story. While starting with a studio session is a great first step, action shots from rehearsals add variety and energy to your portfolio.

As a former professional dancer, I’m at ease in any dance environment, from studios and conventions to the stage. Whether you’re looking for a personal photographer to capture rehearsals, behind-the-scenes moments at competitions, or recital highlights, I’m here to help. Let’s create a plan that fits your vision and budget!

“I cried when I first saw my photos from KZ. I had never had a dance photo that I had felt proud of and that I wanted to share with others. As a dancer herself, KZ knows when and how to capture dance photographs and they turned out absolutely beautiful. With any photo, though, KZ is going to make you look great. Let her photograph you! You won’t be disappointed.”

Live Performances

Dance is a fleeting art form, making it challenging to preserve tangible memories that last a lifetime. As Merce Cunningham once said, “You have to love dancing to stick to it. It gives you nothing back—no manuscripts to store away, no paintings to hang in museums, no poems to be printed and sold—nothing but that single fleeting moment when you feel alive.”

While this feeling can never be fully captured, it remains my deepest inspiration as a former dancer. With my experience in live performances, I can help preserve your dancers’ best moments and provide photos that evoke the exhilaration of being on stage.
