So many incredible shots from Abbey’s artistic studio session! Hard to believe we got this many amazing shots in just two hours! This doesn’t even include the vertical shots.
Which is your favorite. I’m having such a hard time deciding on mine.

So proud of @justine.ballet3! She has worked so hard this year and is continuing to develop into a beautiful dancer. So much improvement and maturity—always demonstrating strength, grit and perseverance throughout. I am so happy she has found her joy again. 🥰

We are beyond grateful to Elise Flagg Academy of Dance. @elise_flagg, @kaleigh_jayne_ and @lkdiamond have fostered a challenging but supportive environment, inspiring all the dancers to be their best, and formed a strong sense of community among the students. J has grown so much as a dancer in her technique and artistry over the last two years with them—EFAD has reignited her spark and love of dancing. We are looking forward to continuing J’s dance journey as the studio transitions to a new name (@midwestdanceconservatory), but remains the same amazing studio!

I am so happy to share J’s final performance of this season’s classical variation, Flames of Paris—this just kept getting better and better every time. Special thanks to @kaleigh_jayne_ and @elise_flagg for preparing J to shine in this variation. And also to @emilyylorenz for the beautiful costume—you always make sure she looks and feels her best.

✨NYCDA!✨

My first time at @nycda was incredible. I’m so glad that I got to dance with my best friends all weekend. A huge thank you to @eliseflaggacademyofdance for making experiences like these so fun! So incredibly grateful to have been awarded an Intensive Standout Award and to be an Outstanding Dancer Finalist among so much talent. Most of all, I’m SO proud of our ballet ensemble for receiving Senior Critics Choice Award after so much hard work. Already missing it!💕🪩
