Hawke’s Bay is so blessed with a variety of outdoor locations. However, these portraits were for a dance portfolio and the range of poses were far more important than the setting. Therefore, in most of the photographs, the subject stands out against an out-of-focus background.
Locations included Pakowhai Country Park, under the Chesterhope Bridge, on the old Pakowhai Rd bridge, along Te Awanga Beach and in a private residence.
