Dance Portrait FAQ
Return to appointment page.
- 1. Where will the photos be taken?
- Mike will set up his studio equipment in one of the dance rooms. No need to worry about finding a strange place.
- 2. How many poses will I get to choose from?
- At least 10-15 photos will be taken per costume in a variety of poses. The biggest “complaint” we hear is that it’s too hard to choose.
- 3. May I choose more than one pose?
- After you choose one pose for a package or a large wall photo, you can choose any number of photos, sizes, and quantities of any other pose. For example, after ordering Package B of your favorite pose, you may order a 5×7 of photo 6, a 4×6 of photo 11, or a 4×6 of everything. You can also order a separate package of different poses to take advantage of the package pricing.
- 4. When do I see the proofs?
- An assistant will show you your photos immediately after the shoot is finished. Packages and prints must be ordered and full payment made at that time.
- 5. How much time will the session last?
- Plan on 30 minutes between the shoot itself, looking at the proofs, and placing your order.
- 6. Can I bring several outfits?
- If you would like more than 2 outfits, please sign up for two time slots.
- 7. What about hair and makeup?
- This is entirely up to you, but avoid full stage makeup and glitter. Stage makeup overemphasizes the face for viewing at a distance, and your pictures will be up close, so too make makeup looks garish!
- 8. May siblings or friends have their pictures taken together?
- Absolutely. If you want individual photos as well, plan on signing up for consecutive time slots if possible.
- 9. Do you accept credit cards?
- Yes, but due to transaction fees, we prefer checks, money orders or cash.
- 10. How long will it take to receive my order?
- Your order will arrive in the mail in 2-3 weeks.
- 11. I have a question not answered here. How can I contact you?
- You may email me at mike@mikenymanphotography.com or call me at 508-414-1656.
- 12. May I see some samples of other dance pictures?
- Some samples are online at www.MikeNymanPhotography.com/dance/ .
