Dance Photography and Workshops

 

Welcome to my portfolio of dance photography! Over time the portfolio has become very international and now includes performers from far too many countries to mention ... and not just dancers but also dance companies including the English National Ballet, the Birmingham Royal Ballet, the New English Contemporary Ballet, the National Ballet of Cuba, Danza Contemporanea de Cuba, the Northern Ballet Theatre and most recently the Ballet estable del Teatro Colon.

 

Enjoy! ...and please do leave a message in my guestbook if you like my work

 

I also would suggest that you visit another of my sites www.rowbotham-cirque.book.fr

which contains more recent work and also the photowall.

 

I continue to work with both individual performers and dance companies and can be contacted through this website.

The images at the top of this page have been used to publicise an exhibition of my work at the Point Theatre in Eastleigh, Hampshire from September 2008 through to mid June 2009. My work has also been exhibited at Swindon Dance, Gloucestershire Dance, at the Cloud Dance Festival and at VideoDanzaBA 2011. 2012 exhibitions will be at the Point Theatre, Eastleigh and at Deda in Derby.

 

The photos to the far right of this page were taken as part of a workshop with Lois Greenfield, 2008. The images were shot at the Lois Greenfield studio in New York City with members of the Amy Marshall Dance Company, Andrew Claus and Smitha Radhakrishnan.

 

The image above right is of Birmingham Royal Ballet dancers Ambra Vallo and Chi Cao. The photo below right is of ballet dancer Emma Brunton from a photoshoot at Swindon Dance.
