Belly dancer in Black | Victoria BC Dance Photographer

Meet Kathryn. Gorgeous!

Kathryn wanted some photos to use for promotion. Of course I was going to say yes! I love taking pictures of belly dancers. Kathryn was only in town for a few days as she lives in PEI. Talk about going a looooonnnnnngggggg way for a photo shoot. Awesome.

We ended up having a lovely day so we took these pictures in her mother’s yards.

 

The day was hot, the first of the year. I was sweating. Kathryn wasn’t. But she sure looked hot!

I don’t know why I love the following picture, but it just hits something in me. She looks so serene, so in the moment, which is the goal with dance. And why I love it so.

Sneaky belly dancer.

Rawr!

Last up, a montage of dance. I love making dancers free style… you get the most natural pictures.
