Fitting The Nutcracker Costumes of New York City Ballet
New York, 2006 — for The New York Sun
I went to see The Nutcracker a couple of months ago and this was the first time I had been to see a ballet. Having not previously been that into ballet, I went with an open mind. I was concerned I would have difficulty following the story and then getting confused, however I was very pleasantly suprised.
I was on the internet not so long ago, looking for images from The Nutcracker enabling me to relive my experience there. During my online travels, I came across this photographer Rachel Papo. Her photographs from The Nutcracker by the New York City Ballet had left me wanting to see more. I could feel the atmosphere through the photographs and felt asthough I was backstage with the dancers!
On her website http://www.rachelpapo.com/ you can also see other commisions she has photographed including Billy Elliot, Fuerzabruta and Cry Baby. All of these are just as amazing.
