Meet Anna Smith

 "I am a dance photographer based in Cape Town. I specialise in aerial dance photography which includes dance forms such as pole fitness, aerial hoop, and silks. My journey began about 10 years ago when a dance studio instructor suggested I shoot their annual photoshoot, which sparked my love for dance photography and I've been doing it ever since. I'm enthralled by capturing the elegance of dancers through my lens. I enjoy constantly pushing creative boundaries and trying out new innovative techniques. Alongside my studio work, I take immense pride in serving as the official photographer for our esteemed national pole and aerial championships, a crucial qualifier for the prestigious international world championships. I also shoot various aerial competitions and dance shows across the country."
