Grace | KRP Real Senior
I was sitting here, trying to remember when I first met Grace. It had to have been about ten years ago. I was waiting for my daughter to finish ballet class when I saw a little girl scoot from one studio to the next. I did a double take because I would have SWORN it was my friend’s daughter. I kept looking at her, trying to figure out if it was, in fact, her, when she called another woman mom. At that point, I was feeling like mom probably thought I was a creep, so I actually told her I thought it was someone else. She replied by saying, “Kendall?” Ha! Apparently I wasn’t the first one to think they looked alike ;-)
Now, fast forward all these years and Grace is a SENIOR. It seems really hard to believe. Not only is she a SUPER sweet young lady, but she is also an exquisite dancer. We were able to get some really fun dance shots during our time together.

Miss K | A Dance Session
Miss K is yet another dancer who missed out on competitions and recitals this year, due to COVID. She did not, however, miss out on the opportunity to get some fabulous photos done!! How amazing is she?!
Her beautiful cousin even popped in for some shots!
Miss H | Dance Session
Miss H was an absolute DOLL during her dance session! She may have missed out on recital, but she brought ALL that sass during the session, and I loved every second of it!!
Little Dancers | Kelly Rhoades Photography
These sweet dancers might have missed out on their recital because of the ‘rona, but their awesome mom made sure to get their dance pictures done, anyhow! Aren’t these talented little ladies adorable?
Lauren | Dance Session
I met Lauren for a dance session, despite the lack of recital this year. She wanted to commemorate her first year signing up for the competition team. She absolutely crushed this session!
Allegro Dance Arts | The Nutcracker
This time of year is so beautiful. There is a magic in the air, and it reminds us of certain things. For many people, one of those things is the Nutcracker. Every other year, Allegro Dance Arts presents us with a performance of the Nutcracker, featuring some incredible lovely dancers. This is one of the off years, however, I decided to share some images captured last year. Some of the ballerinas asked me to photograph them in full costume, and it was my absolute pleasure! If you have the opportunity next year, please do yourself a favor and attend!
