Picture Day has been set for Saturday Afternoon on April 27th from 1:00-3:30.
Detailed handouts that state what time each class has their picture taken was sent home with dancers in March and is also listed on our website. We anticipate that each class will take approximately 15 minutes to take both the group shot and individual shot. We also ask that everyone show up 15 minutes prior to the designated picture time. This is partially because we may run ahead of schedule and also so that we can take attendance and make sure all are in attendance prior to “picture time”.
Costume details have or will be sent out this week with the actual costume that will be handed out this week and next. This detailed note tells you what color tights to buy for your dancer and also includes what to do with the extra accessories that come with the costume. For ex. Some costumes include a bow, barrette or hair binding. Please have your dancer dressed in costume, tights and provided hair accessory for picture day.
Shoes … The handout stating when picture day takes place, also states which pair of dance shoes your dancer will need to wear for pictures. We do recommend you bring both sets of shoes with you in case of shoe emergencies. When the group shot is taken of the entire dance class, it looks best when all have the same color and type of shoes on.
Hair and makeup is left up to each parent’s discretion. All that we ask is that it stays out of the dancers face and eyes and the given bow or barrette or hair binding is used when applicable.
Many classes use props in their dance routines and may want to have them be a part of the individual photo shot. These props will be available per class, for example Monday Kindergarten will be able to use the black sparkle fedora hats or Tuesday Kindergarten can hold the white umbrella’s if they would like. Miss Whitney will be available to help the dancers with a super cute pose with or without a prop.
For smooth sailing operations, to stay on our tight fitting schedule and prevent excited or nervous dancers, we ask that parents wait in the hallway. We have hired the same photographer "Oldenburg Photography” www.oldenburgphotography.com as last year and we feel that he does a superb job with the dancers. In addition, Miss Whitney has a background in photography and will be assisting Mike and the dancers by putting her wonderful talents to work.
Picture day will be held at our studio location within Holy Rosary Parish. The cafeteria will be unavailable to us that afternoon but a conference room just down the hall will be available.
Order forms from Mike Oldenburg Photography will be provided mid-April via a class handout. Purchasing pictures is optional, the order form allows you to pick and choose what you want and how much you want or not to spend. Even if you don’t want to purchase any pictures, we would appreciate the entire class to participate in the group shot. These memories are held dearly for years to come by Miss Lori and Miss Whitney and the other dancers in your class, we don’t want to miss anybody.
If parents have any questions, please contact Lori or Whitney.
Bring your smiles!!
