Welcome!
We are looking forward to creating a great experience for you and your dancer on May 17th. Throughout the process, refer back to this page whenever you need information about Photo Day, including important dates, the schedule for the day, or help in choosing and ordering photos.
I invite you to pin this page in your browser, so that you always have the information handy. And always feel free to reach out, whenever you have any questions, using the form at the bottom of this page.
You should have already received an email announcing the launch of Advance Pay credit sales. (If not, please check your SPAM filter!) Advance Pay lets you get a jump on the ordering process and save some money–all while delivering photos that celebrate your dancer’s accomplishments and make great gifts for family and friends.
Here’s a quick overview of the process. We’ll provide more details as the date approaches.
What’s included?
All dancers performing in Peter Pan may participate in the Spring Photo Day. Each dancer will get:
2 individual poses for each costume/role
one group pose for each role
an opportunity to take photos with their siblings
a private gallery of each dancer’s (or family’s) photos
a selection of different print and digital packages to meet your family’s needs
Participation in Photo Day is free. You only pay for the prints or digital images you want to purchase. You can review their photos without any obligation to purchase.
It’s not just about the photos
Besides providing families with beautiful photos for their home and to share with loved ones, dance photography is actually an important part of your dancer’s development. Posing for the camera builds confidence in their dance skills and their ability to express themselves for an audience.
Displaying prints of your children has an added bonus: seeing photos of themselves around the house can add to a child's sense of security and self-esteem.
Advance Pay Credit
Prior to Picture Day, you’ll have the opportunity to purchase Advance Pay credit. Think of Advance Pay as a gift certificate to yourself with an added bonus: by purchasing Advance Pay credit now you will receive a discount on your photo order after Picture Day. There are two Advance Pay options:
$40 Advance Pay gives you $10 off your first order of $50 (the cost of 2 digitals) or more. This is the best offer if you have only one dancer in one costume.
Purchasing $75 Advance Pay gives you $25 off your first order of $100 (the cost of 4 digitals) or more. This is the best offer if you have more than one dancer in the family or an older dancer with multiple costumes.
To purchase Advance Pay credit, simply follow the instructions in the email you received. When galleries become available about a week after Picture Day, your credit will be waiting for you to make check out faster.
Advance Pay credit may only be purchased until Picture Day, May 17th, so purchase now to lock in your discount.

“Dancers gain beautiful photos to share with family and friends, confidence boost when they see themselves execute positions in a great ballet technique photo, and a fun time bonding with their classmates when they have performances together.”
- Emma Silagy, Los Alamitos Ballet School
MEET YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER
During my 35 years serving students in the Fullerton area as a high school teacher and administrator, I gained a wealth of experience with young people. Photography has brought me back to my own creative roots as I serve young artists.
I have been fortunate to partner with schools such as LABS who are educating young people—not just to become dancers but to develop into persons of character.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
There is no cost to have your dancer’s photos taken. You only pay for any digitals or prints that you choose to order.
-
For the younger dancers, their teachers will help them prepare for their photos and one of their teachers will help guide them in the studio when they are having their picture taken. Older dancers will be coached by both teachers and the photographer to refine their pose for the camera.
