Marie {Minneapolis, St. Paul, Twin Cities Minnesota} Senior and Dance Portrait Photographer Emily Charais Photography

Marie.

She inspires me to be a better dance photographer.  Our LUXE session was so much more than just having senior pictures done.  She is one of those dancers that not only has beautiful technique, but she shines from within.  It was a perfect session to be my first at my new studio in the downtown neighborhood of North Loop.  I simply cannot wait to work with more dancers in this space.

We started our session outdoors on location near my studio, then finished of the magical night with some studio dance portfolio shots so Marie can show schools what she is made of.  Whichever school gets her, they are lucky.  Please enjoy Marie’s session, I sure did!
