🎭 THEATRE PHOTOGRAPHY FOR THE BOLD, THE DRAMATIC & THE BEAUTIFULLY ODD


If your show is full of heart, chaos, creativity, and characters who demand to be seen… I want to photograph it.

You make theatre that feels alive — your photos should too.

I’m Those In Motion, and I photograph productions for the artists who color outside the lines:

the community theatre kids-now-adults, the indie directors, the queer creators, the stage combat nerds, the tech crew heroes, and the gloriously dramatic humans who put their whole soul into a show.

If your show isn’t “traditional,” “expected,” or “normal?”

Even better. I thrive in the beautifully weird.

⭐ WHAT I PHOTOGRAPH


 

• Full productions & live performances

• Dress rehearsals

• Tech week (chaos included)

• Backstage moments

• Cast portraits

• Stage combat & sword choreography


• Queer theatre, immersive theatre, experimental theatre

• Black-box shows, musicals, workshops, student productions

• Anything with heart, personality, or drama (so… everything)

💡 WHAT YOU ACTUALLY WANT (AND WHAT I DELIVER)


You’re not looking for stiff, washed-out “documentation.”

You want theatre photos that FEEL like your production:

• photos that capture emotion, not just scenes

• lighting that looks intentional, not flattened

• characters with depth and presence

• movement that feels alive and powerful

• images that promote your show (and sell seats)

• memories your cast will cherish forever

Theatre is alive.

Your photos should be too.

WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO WORK WITH ME

Imagine a photographer who can blend into your crew, dodge moving set pieces, respect the sacred chaos of tech week, and still catch every moment beautifully.

Working with me feels:

• chill, easy, and low-pressure

• supportive of creative brains + neurodivergent folks

• queer-friendly, artist-friendly, theatre-kid-at-heart friendly

• respectful of cast comfort & backstage boundaries

• like having someone who truly gets the soul of your show

I don’t interrupt scenes.

I don’t demand retakes.

I don’t flatten your lighting.

I work with your world, not against it.

Small theatres create big stories. I love them.
