For a number of years now, I’ve had the pleasure of working with the Worcester State University Dance Company for their Winter and Spring Showcases. In addition to capturing action shots of the shows, we typically take headshot portraits and group portraits of the choreographers, which are displayed at their shows.
I had SO MUCH FUN capturing the Spring Showcase for the Worcester State University Dance Company in Worcester, MA! It’s clear just how much hard work these young ladies and men put in and just how passionately they do it – the performances were absolutely amazing!
Where do I even start with this one! Lauren is one of the first students I had when I started teaching, which gave us the unique opportunity to spend a great deal of time together planning out her perfect senior session. We spent weeks (ok, probably months!) discussing ideas for her portraits. Lauren wanted a little bit of everything – nature, a bit of a rustic touch (she LOVES country music), and because dance has been a huge part of her life since she was 3, we absolutely had to feature that passion in her photos. On a gorgeous summer day, we headed out to one of my favorite locations, Riverbend Farm in Uxbridge, MA.
“I loved working with Monique! She had a lot of ideas and did a great job incorporating mine too. She is very professional and upbeat. It was a great first experience with a photographer. My family couldn’t be happier with how my portraits turned out, it was so hard to choose which ones to order!”
After graduation, Lauren is going to school to be a pediatric nurse. She plans on continuing to participate on her dance team and playing club volleyball. Lauren – I will miss you greatly next year, but I can’t wait to see where life takes you!
