Sophie's Photography

My name is Stuart, and together with my daughter Sophie, we run a passionate, family-owned photography and videography business dedicated to the world of dance. We've been involved in dance for over 20 years and officially launched our specialist Dance Event Photography business in 2012.

Sophie is not only an integral part of the business – she’s also a very talented photographer with a fantastic eye for capturing the emotion and energy of performance. Between us, we’ve covered events of all sizes, including major industry highlights such as Paul Killicks’ The Open Worlds.

From prestigious World Professional Ballroom competitions to small local showcases, we bring the same level of professionalism, enthusiasm, and attention to detail to every job. We also operate a fully equipped professional photo studio in Fareham, Hampshire.

What Makes Us Different:

Unlike many other professional photographers, we offer a service to all competitors – not just a select few. Our goal is to ensure every dancer, no matter their level or age group, has the opportunity to be photographed and take home a high-quality memory from their event.

What We Offer at Dance Events:

Full Coverage with Multiple Photographers

Onsite Portrait Studio with Professional Lighting (optional)

Instant Viewing with Up to 10 Apple iPads

Onsite Printing from 5x7 up to A4 (8x12), plus Keyrings and Fridge Magnets

High-Quality Offsite Prints including A1 Posters and Canvases

All Images Uploaded Online Within 48 Hours with a dedicated event gallery

With over 7,500 followers and fantastic reviews across Facebook and Google, we’re proud of the reputation we've built in the dance community.

If you're looking for experienced, passionate professionals to capture your next dance event — while offering fair and inclusive service to every competitor — we’d love to hear from you.

We provide photography services for all participants and competitors of dance competitions
