Denver Dance Kid Dynamo – Dancer and Modeling Portfolio Shots by Natascha Lee Studios
Last weekend I had the pleasure of photographing Presley’s modeling portfolio images @ my studio just North of Downtown Denver. It’s a real honor to photograph these wonderful children’s modeling portfolio images, and I enjoy making sure each image celebrates not only their external beauty, but even more importantly that it highlights their unique personality and their internal beauty. Quite a few of my clients are involved in dance, ice skating or gymnastics.
Presley is a dear, so full of external and internal beauty! She currently dances with Starstruck Academy of Dance. She was most recently in the ShowBiz Entertainment dance competition, where she won; 1st in her age division, solo “High Point Title” winner, as well as being named “Ms. ShowBiz”. Congrats Presley! She is also an incredible student, with straight “A’s” even though she dances 5 days a week.
What a little star!

BTS: A little BTS – Behind-The-Scenes story about her pose on the right. As background, I often actually get into the pose I want someone else do, as it’s the quickest way to convey the idea. I was trying to show Presley how I wanted her to keep her shoulders back she got in the pose. So I grabbed my own foot and got into the pose to show her. Not knowing that I am a former ballet dancer myself, she was quite shocked and as I grabbed my foot and started moving above my head, right there in the middle of the sidewalk – she initially reached out to help me, like she was worried I was falling over. Then, once I got into the pose (very briefly), she smiled and understood. Still, there was a moment there where she really didn’t know what the heck her crazy photographer was doing and was trying to be helpful. Such a sweetie!

Here is Miss Personality Plus!!! My fabulous assistant, Cristina and I, had so much fun doing her portfolio images @ my studio just North of Downtown Denver.
If you follow me on Instagram (instagram/NataschaLeeStudios), I posted a BTS (behind the scenes) shot two weeks ago, from this shoot. She was so darn cute!
She kept saying, “I’m going to think of cute puppies in the jungle”, as a way to get herself to smile! And that, of course, made us smile.
That huge, beautiful smile in the lower right-handed photo (pink dress)? Well, that has nothing to do with thinking of puppies – that’s her laughing at me, and my silliness.
Ya gotta be willing to be SUPER SILLY when working with kiddos….and it always pays off! 😉
