Sat, Sep 6, 2025, 1:00 PM EDTDancing Through the Lens: Photography Workshop with Sigma
PIXEL Connection, Avon, OH
Click Here for More Info and Registration

Photographing dancers is about more than just freezing a jump — it’s about timing, body language, and trust. In this hands-on workshop, led by Heather Larkin you'll experience a live, tethered photo session with a professional dancer while learning the technical and creative skills that make a dance image truly resonate.

We’ll break down commonly used dance terms and poses, analyze both successful and not-so-successful photo examples, and have open, honest conversations about what makes an image work — especially when photographing teen dancers.

Then, put your knowledge into practice: you'll get the chance to photograph live dance models in both an in-store studio setup and an outdoor park location nearby (weather permitting). This extended shoot time lets you experiment with lighting, angles, and movement across multiple environments.

As a bonus, Sigma will be on-site with a selection of their high-performance lenses for you to try, giving you the opportunity to elevate your gear — and your results
