Sunrise Ballet Session by the Mississippi River

As the first light of day stretched across the Mississippi River, dancer Alaina brought a sense of magic to downtown Baton Rouge. Dressed in a flowing couture gown from Your Fairy Godmother Couture, she embodied grace, strength, and radiant femininity, all captured in this breathtaking sunrise session at the “Sing the River” sculpture.

This location, known for its sculptural beauty and view of the iconic Mississippi River bridge, became a perfect stage for Alaina’s expressive ballet movements. Her vibrant pink dress echoed the soft purples and golds of the morning sky, creating a dreamy harmony between dancer and environment.

As a photographer, these are the moments I live for. When fashion meets fine art, when the backdrop of our city becomes part of the story, and when a young child like Alaina brings it all to life with confidence and passion.

Whether you’re a dancer, dreamer, or parent looking to capture this chapter of your child’s journey, I’d love to help you tell your story through fine art portraiture.
