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 and at the Cloud Dance Festival.
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.

...my favourite image from the recent trip to buenos aires
juanma firmani and mica spina having fun in recoleta
juan manuel acosta and julia urruty on stage in buenos aires
Los bailarines del Ballet Estable del Teatro Colón rehearsing for “El Corsario”in Buenos Aires, Argentina
contemporary tango dancers juan manuel firmani y micaela spina in buenos aires
Avant garde tango musicians otros aires recently performed a concert in buenos aires... this is from the technical rehearsal.
The camera was hand held. I deliberately did not try to line up all the frames... the resulting effect is very much consistent with style of otros aires
