Nice to meet you,
I am a portrait photographer located in Savannah, GA, specializing in tweens, teens, high school seniors, and dancers.
It was the launch of my dance photography campaign, For the Love of Dance, that helped me transition to photographing mostly dancers.
I have created a luxury dance portrait experience that commands luxury prices, which allows me to run a low-volume photography studio.
I am passionate about teaching photographers how to work with dancers safely, and to ensure they are trained properly to create a client-centric experience that is both empowering to their clients, and profitable.
"Whitney is a professional that totally knows dance. She can teach you how to pose and perfect those little details that will stand out and improve your images 100%. She is one of the most giving instructors I have ever had the privilege to work with." -Kathy Morley
"Whitney is an absolutely amazing instructor and coach. She teaches so well- even if you know nothing about dance, she can teach you fast. I would highly recommend her class. I am not hesitating to say it was the best workshop I have attended in 20 years in my career as a professional photographer!" -Inna Sumra
"If you are interested in learning about dance photography, Whitney is the instructor to learn from. She is very patient, and literally is an open book. She will answer every question as thoroughly as possible and make sure you understand everything about how to photograph dancers and run a dance photography business. If you hae the opportunity to take her workshop and if dance is one of your passions, don't miss it! Jump in and learn from the best!" -Julia Acosta
