Originally built in 1907 as an open-air dance pavilion, The Peristyle has long been a space connected to movement, performance, elegance, and expression, making it the perfect setting for this year’s outdoor Dancer Photo-Op experience. With its iconic columns, timeless architecture, and dreamy New Orleans atmosphere, this location creates portraits that feel both powerful and beautifully nostalgic. 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. https://heidicayphotography.com/pop-ups-events/back-to-school monthly 0.5 2026-05-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62db170679108462f2ead768/7e4d6025-3c89-4545-bcfb-49bc879f1561/0D8A2187.jpg Pop Ups + Events - Back To School! - You know the front porch photo.

Emotional Connection & Storytelling Dance is emotion in motion. A well‑timed leap, an expressive face, or a quiet moment of concentration tells story that words alone can’t capture. These images become a kind of social proof: they show real students doing real work, which helps prospective families envision themselves (or their children) as part of the studio community. Over time, a library of images becomes a visual narrative — celebrating growth, team culture, and progression from season to season. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62db170679108462f2ead768/b0f1abdc-e47f-4fba-806e-87d4e6bc0f24/0D8A9496.jpg The Insider - Studio Branding: How Dance Photography Can Elevate Your Visual Identity - In a world where first impressions happen in a scroll, your studio’s visual identity matters more than ever. Dance photography isn’t just a nice-to-have — it’s a strategic tool that can elevate your brand, strengthen your community, and capture the heart of what makes your studio special. Whether you’re aiming to attract new students, build a loyal team culture, or simply preserve the fleeting magic of each season, intentional imagery helps you do it with clarity, consistency, and heart. If this resonated with you, I’d love to stay connected! Follow me on social media for more insights, behind-the-scenes peeks, and tips on using photography to grow your dance studio’s brand. Let’s keep telling beautiful stories — one frame at a time.

A Confidence Boost That’s So Worth It One of my favorite moments during a session is when a senior starts to relax and really enjoy being in front of the camera. That shift from nervous to confident? It’s everything. And when they see their final images — the smiles, the confidence, the glow — it’s a huge boost. I love watching them feel proud of what they see. https://heidicayphotography.com/the-insider/-how-to-prep-your-child-for-their-first-dance-photo-session monthly 0.5 2025-08-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62db170679108462f2ead768/bb5932f3-0ff9-488b-92d1-2e444be2ee78/0D8A6382.jpg The Insider - How to Prep Your Child for Their First Dance Photo Session - So your dancer has their very first professional dance photo session coming up—yay! First of all, take a deep breath (you’ve got this!). Whether you’re a seasoned dance parent or just starting your journey, prepping for a dance photoshoot is all about creating a fun, empowering, and relaxed experience for your child. As a dance mom myself and a professional photographer, I’ve been on both sides of the camera—and I totally get how important this moment is. You want your dancer to feel confident, comfortable, and proud of their photos. So I’ve put together my top tips to help you prep like a pro. Let’s Dive In! https://heidicayphotography.com/the-insider/what-to-pack-in-your-dance-bag monthly 0.5 2025-08-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62db170679108462f2ead768/3c29e7ba-242b-467c-8dbe-401546171aa7/Screenshot+2025-08-01+at+12.03.38%E2%80%AFPM.png The Insider - What to Pack in Your Dance Bag - Why I swear by it: These clear garment bags are a lifesaver. They keep costumes clean, pressed, and organized (yes, even that one with sequins and feathers). The multiple zippered pockets are perfect for tucking in shoes, tights, and accessories—no more digging through your duffle in a panic. Photo Day Bonus: These are also perfect for photo shoots with multiple costume changes. Each outfit is ready to go, wrinkle-free, and clearly labeled so your dancer (or their photographer...hi, me!) knows exactly what look comes next. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62db170679108462f2ead768/1af7b611-f4b9-4d35-9e88-fcb0073ae365/Screenshot+2025-08-01+at+12.07.56%E2%80%AFPM.png The Insider - What to Pack in Your Dance Bag - Why I love it: This mirror folds flat and fits right in your bag. You can hang it just about anywhere, whether you're in a crowded dressing room or crammed backstage. Dancers can check makeup up close or step back to see their full costume—no surprises when the stage lights hit. Pro Tip: Always bring one to photo shoots - I don’t always have studio mirrors for my dancers. It helps dancers do a quick once-over before stepping in front of the lens—and that confidence boost makes for better photos. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62db170679108462f2ead768/1f83e7b0-adf5-4e13-9716-d8d0406bd20b/Screenshot+2025-08-01+at+12.13.54%E2%80%AFPM.png The Insider - What to Pack in Your Dance Bag Why it's a must: This kit has everything—bobby pins, hair ties, hair nets, makeup hair clips, and even a case to keep it all together. Whether you're wrangling a ballet bun or a high pony with sparkle scrunchies, this is your go-to. Double Duty: On photo days, your dancer needs to look just as polished as they do on stage. This kit ensures you’re not scrambling for a single stretched-out hair tie from the bottom of your purse. (Been there.) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62db170679108462f2ead768/c1a19a1d-da95-40f9-bb3a-260f2c41d584/0D8A6103.jpg The Insider - What to Pack in Your Dance Bag - Why it’s essential: Wrinkles and rumpled costumes? Not cute on stage or in front of the camera. This exact steamer is my go-to. I use it at home to prep my dancer's costumes before they even touch a garment bag, and I pack it for every competition weekend and photoshoot. Photographer Must-Have: I even use it to steam my beloved infinity dress that makes regular appearances in my work. It's compact, heats up fast, and handles everything from delicate tutus to thicker fabrics. Nothing photographs better than a crisp, fresh costume—trust me, your photos will thank you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62db170679108462f2ead768/f41c94e0-f2d1-4cc7-a48a-fdb56be2142a/Screenshot+2025-08-01+at+12.23.34%E2%80%AFPM.png The Insider - What to Pack in Your Dance Bag - One Trip In, One Trip Out: You can roll this into a convention center dressing room or a photoshoot location without making three trips back to the car. It’s roomy, durable, and saves your back, your nerves, and your schedule. On Set Bonus: At photoshoots, this lets dancers change quickly and efficiently, and helps me as a photographer keep the flow going. No digging through a messy duffle. Everything’s right there, ready to go. https://heidicayphotography.com/the-insider/why-professional-dance-photos-are-worth-itbeyond-the-recital monthly 0.5 2025-07-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62db170679108462f2ead768/8b10c803-4543-49a4-8d4f-a079282346cc/0D8A5982.jpg The Insider - Why Professional Dance Photos Are Worth It—Beyond the Recital - I see the spark in their eyes. I hear the little gasp or the giggle. We celebrate together—because in that moment, they’re proud of themselves. That’s what we’re capturing. That’s what you’ll remember when you look back at these portraits—not just how they looked, but how far they had come. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62db170679108462f2ead768/fe5be5b1-f2d0-463e-9a39-51cf5bacd54e/0D8A6130.jpg The Insider - Why Professional Dance Photos Are Worth It—Beyond the Recital Dance is a season of life that flies by. The tiny ballet shoes, the favorite leotard, the braces and bobby pins—these things change so quickly. One day you’ll look at a photo and be taken back to the exact moment your child felt beautiful, strong, and free. Professional portraits become more than wall art—they become family treasures. Years from now, you’ll be so glad you didn’t just rely on a quick phone snapshot. https://heidicayphotography.com/the-insider/the-magical-jumper monthly 0.5 2025-07-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62db170679108462f2ead768/61ef13d4-aa5d-47ba-bbf9-b141772c59c5/IMG_6388.JPG The Insider - Confessions of a Dance Photographer THE MAGICAL JUMPER……..A.K.A My Studio Uniform You’ve all asked about it - and sis, I even linked it for you at the bottom of this page (you’re welcome).

(If you know, you know) I like to call it My Studio Uniform because, well, I basically wear it like it's a work-issued requirement. Only, it’s way more comfortable and I didn’t have to fill out HR paperwork to get it. Here’s why I love this thing more than coffee on recital week: https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62db170679108462f2ead768/5584ba99-f4c8-4370-b350-f94a54245d08/IMG_6376.jpg The Insider - Confessions of a Dance Photographer - 3. POCKETS. ALL. THE. POCKETS. This jumper has two big ol’ side pockets that can fit everything from lens caps to my kid’s snacks (yes, I’ve pulled out a baggie of goldfish mid-shoot before). And the pièce de résistance? A glorious front pouch I lovingly refer to as my Foraging Pocket. It holds SD cards, hair ties, random acorns my toddler hands me, and probably a sticker or two from last week’s park meet-up. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62db170679108462f2ead768/519dd7c2-f833-41f3-b53f-269b7270122b/IMG_6450.PNG The Insider - Confessions of a Dance Photographer - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://heidicayphotography.com/the-insider/7-easy-tips-for-getting-instagram-worthy-photos-of-your-kids-with-just-your-phone monthly 0.5 2025-05-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62db170679108462f2ead768/1747673081184-2IYH32GB6KNJ2QER4C9V/IMG_4201.png The Insider - 7 Easy Tips for Getting Instagram-Worthy Photos of Your Kids (With Just Your Phone!) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62db170679108462f2ead768/1747673081360-I23YRCQ2TD2RU67TNPJR/IMG_4202.png The Insider - 7 Easy Tips for Getting Instagram-Worthy Photos of Your Kids (With Just Your Phone!) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62db170679108462f2ead768/1747673082221-9ENZRAFRDTP5SBTMO6VU/IMG_4203.png The Insider - 7 Easy Tips for Getting Instagram-Worthy Photos of Your Kids (With Just Your Phone!) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62db170679108462f2ead768/5409ce3b-48f4-444c-a6d0-1121be8a0a2e/IMG_4206.jpeg The Insider - 7 Easy Tips for Getting Instagram-Worthy Photos of Your Kids (With Just Your Phone!) - Make it stand out Here I use all 7 tips!
