We have four amazing dancers who are also experienced models and some very special themes and styling!Time: 11am - 4.30pm
There are 16 spaces on this event. I’ve deliberately kept group sizes small to ensure a relaxed shoot where everyone has the same opportunity to shoot and work with our models. You will be working in groups of 4 working with one model on rotation before moving on to the next.
The cost? An astonishingly good value £265 per person for 5.5 hours of dance magic, fabulous modelling and a few laughs guaranteed.

Our location
Our location is a historic swimming baths which has been restored. It still retains its derelict vibe though, and it has an entire top floor of derelict rooms. This juxtaposes with the beautiful ornate tiling and stained glass windows meaning you will get a real variety of images on the day. Credit for the location images go to David Dixon, Tim Pile and Paul Harris.
This location has good natural light, but lighting will be on site and a lighting technician as well ready to help you take some great shots.
