photography by nancy d'amato

Photography is my passion.

​

Funny enough...I have degrees in mathematics and secondary education. I taught high school mathematics, and wrote mathematics texts for 3 decades, but my desire to create was always strongest. And now, I've found my joy in designing, creating, and managing costumes for Mass Ballet and in photography. I shouldn't be surprised. My mother was an artist in everything she did. My grandfather, John L. Sheldon, was an avid photographer and my father, Albert Antonellis, was an avid photographer.  My family has come to expect that if we are gathered, then I have my camera at my side.

​

I have been photographing dance for 5+ years (portrait and performance) and find so much joy in connecting with my clients and seeing them do what they love.

You can view my studio and performance photography in my portfolio or at massballetphotos.

At this time I do not consider myself a professional photographer (more of an amateur-professional with a lot of experience.). But I hope that my sample images, reputation, and affordable pricing will entice you to book a session!
