Details of your session

- Sunday February 18 and Tuesday February 20 (Monday may open up if there is interest)

- 45 minutes of dedicated studio time with Photographer

- The plan is to give you at least 30 minutes of time in front of the camera, with the first 15 minutes to collaborate as needed

- White "infinity" background (background and floor); can create shades of grey on background by adjusting lighting; a black background may also be available

- High speed lighting for catching motion!  We love movement and flow!

- Real-time review of images on back of camera or on PC screen to adjust posing

- Bring unlimited wardrobe changes, props

- Bring posing ideas/photos (Google, Instagram, etc.) on your phone if you want

- Bring posing help (friends, parents, instructors)

- We will move at your pace

- Chris, your photographer, is here to work with you on posing ideas; he is not experienced as a dancer, but he has years of experience working with dancers as a photographer; think ahead about the following and he will also help you be aware during your session:

- Know that some poses are just that... poses; you get into the pose and hold it until the flash fires. 

- Know that you can move through your pose and your photographer will capture the moment you want; know that you can move, flow, or jump through it, and that it's ok to fall to the floor... talk with your photographer about what you want, demonstrate ahead of the actual snapping of the shutter, and know it is up to you how many times you want to attempt the pose in order to get the shot

- Typically, the best portraits are when all your arms and legs are visible (none hiding behind your body) and when arms and legs are not pointing toward or away from the camera (this can make them disproportional to the rest of your body)

- Be aware of your facial expressions... be intentional in the moment...will you be smiling or have a serious look? Will you have your eyes closed? Will you be looking at the camera, or off to the side?

- Safety first... know your limits, be aware of when you need a break (we will try to be aware of this and ask/remind you)

- Safety first... understand that you will be on Harlequin Marley dance flooring, but this flooring will be on a concrete floor; you will probably have the slip/grip you are used to, but certainly not the "bounce" and "give" when jumping/landing

- Just remember that this is your session, have fun and know that we are working for you to capture you in your best light

- Be prepared to start at scheduled time

- Be patient if schedules run late
