Photoshoot With Ballerina Daria

Ballerina/model Laetetia from my recent photo retreat connected me with a retired Ukrainian ballerina, Daria, who lives in the Barcelona area. She is in preparation as a pshchotherapist but she also models for some additional income. The day after my retreat I met up with Daria in the beautiful Ciutadella Park which is just adjacent to the Gothic Quarter. The park had a lot of interesting locations to shoot. Daria did a variety of ballet poses as we walked around the park. Ballerina’s are very particular about their angles, but it was comfortable shooting with Dara and we got some interesting shots in a genre that is quite new to me.
