"Nicola is a superb dance photographer. She takes care to prepare well to ensure not to waste time on the shoot and encourages the dancer to storyboard what they want too ensuring both photographer and subject are on the same page. During the shoot Nicola is quick to put the dancer at ease, understands their needs in regards of warming up etc and demonstrates flexibility and creativity to get the shots the dancer wants. The resultant images are stunning! I would not hesitate to recommend Nicola if you need good quality dance images for your portfolio".

"Nicola is a very good dance photographer. Not only does she produce excellent photographs but she is also very helpful during the process of the shoot. She helped me choose positions that she thought would look good on me and on camera. She was extremely helpful in directing me by instructing me on minute adjustments of my body so that it looks the best it can on camera. I would definitely recommend Nicola for any one looking to get quality dance photographs. "

Lairds Academy

'Nicola has taken wonderful photographs of Laird Academy students and knows exactly what is required in capturing 'the moment'.

Ashtead Ballet School

Nicola has produced some wonderful images of our students during class, rehearsal and performance. She understands dance and how to take the shot at just the right moment. Her commitment to a shoot is amazing - she turns up to several classes or rehearsals to get as many photo opportunities as possible but is always unobtrusive. She is a lovely lady who is a pleasure to work with!

Feetbeats - Dance School

Nicola stepped in last minute to take photos of my 10th Year Anniversary dance school show at the Harlequin Theatre, Redhill. Nicola was friendly and professional and offered me a bit of lighting advice! She was able to take beautiful photographs unobtrusively of all of our dancers, including when I presented her with the challenge of taking the photos during the performance (as we don’t have a main dress rehearsal). I have no hesitation in recommending Nicola to other potential clients. Thank you Nicola! :o)
