Aspire Multimedia and Photography

 After many years photographing dance , gymnastics and cheer, across Central Florida, we've decided to let you know who our favorite is! We bet you didn't think we had a favorite;) But how could we not? We spend numerous hours with many of you and your athletes.  Coaches, we  hear the joy, pride and excitement when you showcase your performers groups. Each costume has a story. Each shoe has a reason. Every detail was considered well before the athlete ever practiced it one time. Dancers, cheerleaders & gymnasts we notice when you have a new pose or develop a new skill! We cheer with you when you try something new. Even if you don't necessarily have it perfected this season, we know next season there will be progress! Parents, we love when you share old photos of your children that we've taken. We are honored that you take the time to tell us how much you love our photos! We notice the pride shining from you when your son or daughter has their turn in front of the c...

 We invite you to explore our new and improved website! It's been a long time coming. Finding the time was the biggest obstacle as I'm sure you will agree as we all have to divide our time into a million things! However, because we absolutely love our job as dance, cheer and gymnastics photographers and videographers it was a labor of love!  As we updated our site, we found ourselves reminiscing over 15+ years of memories. We've had the privilege of capturing thousands of athletes. Many who have grown up in the studio and gym so we are fortunate to have those moments in time captured year after year! And, WOW, have you all grown! As you can see in the images below, she was a tiny new dancer and now a beautiful young adult. Every time we look back we have memories of great times with dancers, cheerleaders, gymnasts and coaches who put their heart and soul into every stretch, leap, jump and turn!  And parents... thank you! You've raised children who are kind, polite, thou...

       Today is a momentous occasion as we celebrate Tony Palmieri’s birthday! Every year, we look forward to honoring the incredible man behind Aspire Multimedia & Photography, and this year’s celebration is particularly special.      Earlier this year, Tony took a bold step out of his comfort zone by entering his work into a photo competition. Known for his humility, Tony was initially hesitant about this decision. It takes a great deal of courage to submit your work for judgment in such a subjective field, and Tony was no exception to this apprehension. However, his decision to participate has proven to be more than worthwhile.      To our delight and astonishment, Tony’s name was announced as the  1st place winner in the Performing Arts category  at the prestigious   SYNC 2024: National Photography Conference . This was not only a remarkable achievement for Tony, but also a thrilling moment for all of us, as it mar...

  Congratulations on a wonderful 2022 recital!   Enjoy your silly dancers antics on picture day! 

  Each studio we take photos at has a unique quality. Each owner, instructor, parent and dancer has something different-and we love it! No studio is the same. It's amazing how different they all are, yet so much the same!  The main thing we notice all of the time is the time and dedication it takes to commit as an instructor, owner, dancer and parent. We appreciate the time put into learning, teaching, traveling, etc. It's a COMMITMENT for certain!  As you can see in these photos, it's great to take a moment and be silly in between the daily work. We love our dance families and appreciate the opportunity to be a part of your lives for a few days each year! Enjoy the video!

  Another year of seeing these athlete's growth!  Legendary holds a special place in our hearts as our daughter danced there for many years!  This is her first season away at college and we were happy to see familiar and new fam(ily) during picture days! As always enjoy the video and congratulations on your wonderful year of accomplishments in cheer and dance!!  #WeAreLA
