The Peristyle Dance Photo Op

This session is all about celebrating your dancer’s passion and personality. Whether they want to wear their favorite costume from this past competition season, showcase a solo costume they’re proud of, or simply wear something they feel confident and beautiful dancing in, these portraits are designed to honor the hard work, artistry, and heart they pour into dance.

From graceful movement portraits beneath the columns to dramatic editorial-inspired images surrounded by the historic beauty of City Park, this experience creates keepsake portraits that feel elevated, emotional, and uniquely personal to your dancer.

Dancer + Senior Custom Dress Photo-Op

Custom Iridescent Dress Photo-Op - July 26

Calling all dancers, dreamers, and moms who can’t believe how quickly their little artist is growing up — this one is going to be SO special.

Our Designer Dancer Pop-Up at Studio Cay was created for dancers who want something bold, artistic, emotional, and completely different from the typical recital portrait. This experience combines dramatic moody lighting with a stunning custom iridescent designer dress to create high-impact fine-art dance portraits that feel powerful, elegant, and full of movement.

Whether your dancer is just beginning their journey or already living at the studio, this session is all about celebrating their love for dance and preserving this season of dedication, artistry, and expression.

The provided iridescent gown was intentionally chosen to photograph beautifully in motion and pair perfectly with our dramatic lighting setup. Dancers should arrive wearing a white, cream, or nude-toned leotard underneath the dress. Barefoot or pointe shoes are preferred to complete the soft editorial look.

And because we all know Louisiana summers can be brutal, this entire experience takes place indoors at Studio Cay so dancers can move comfortably while still creating absolutely jaw-dropping portraits.

Each Session Includes:

  • A 30-minute editorial dance portrait session

  • Use of the custom iridescent designer dress

  • 5 professionally edited fine-art portraits

  • A private online gallery for viewing and downloading

  • Optional professional prints and artwork available for purchase

This pop-up is perfect for dancers wanting something emotional, artistic, and portfolio-worthy — the kind of portraits that stop people mid-scroll and become treasured keepsakes for years to come.

July 25 • Studio Cay
30-Minute Session • 5 Images • Online Gallery • Prints Optional
Barefoot or Pointe Preferred • Time Slots Available 11am–2pm
