📸 REGISTRATION IS CLOSED 📸
IF YOU WOULD STILL LIKE TO REGISTER, WE CAN TAKE YOUR CHILD's PORTRAIT ON SUNDAY BEFORE OR AFTER THEIR RECITAL PERFORMANCE. PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOGRAPHY DESK FOR INSTRUCTIONS.
PLEASE READ BELOW FOR DETAILS, UPDATES and FAQ's!
📸 Who is Erica?
Erica is the owner and primary photographer at erica b. tappis photography. She is licensed, insured and has been in business for almost 10 years here in Montgomery County including 7 years at Bella Ballet. Erica has a wide range of specialties but her forte is capturing children. She is very quick to make her kid-clients feel comfortable in front of the camera and letting their personalities shine in her photos! You can read more about Erica here.
Bella Ballet's Picture Day program is unlike any other dance school's. The menu, process and even the posing is customized for YOU!
📸 What is different this year?
In addition to capturing timeless, gorgeous portraits, we strive to make the experience fun for your dancers and stress-free for you. Erica is constantly updating her menu, ordering system and Picture Day process. Here is what's new this year!
- NO SAME DAY REGISTRATIONS… Sorry! It's for the best! Ensuring everyone signs up in advance means the process will flow more seamlessly on June 11!
- CLASS PHOTOS ARE BACK… We are so excited about this! Class photos will be captured 10-15 minutes after your child leaves the stage on June 11. Please come directly to the gym and check in at the photography desk so you don't miss it!
- NEW ORDER FORM... The menu is mostly the same... it just looks different and hopefully easier to use!
- SIBLING PHOTOS, MULTIPLE COSTUMES & DADDY-DAUGHTER... We've tried to make ordering for these categories easier! Be sure to read the details in the order form.
- NO CHECK PAYMENTS: We accept credit card, GooglePay or ApplePay.
📸 What if I only want a class photo?
No problem! When recital photos are posted, you will be able to see and order the any class photo you would like. There is no need to pre-order class photos.
📸 When will I receive my purchases?
Your prints and products will be ready 4-6 weeks after recital weekend. Your purchase will mailed to your home for $5.00 or available for pick up at the Ballet Ballet studio (no charge). You will be notified when your items are ready.
📸 Can I see my child's photo before I purchase it?
While you won't be able to see your child's image until you receive your purchased prints, you will be able to see samples of Erica's work. Rest assured, if you are not satisfied with your portrait, Erica will gladly offer a full refund or a re-shoot for a minimal fee.
📸 What about the recital?
Erica and her team will capture candid photos all 4 recitals and will get as many individual shots of your superstars on stage as possible! Image galleries will be posted and emailed 4 weeks after the recital.
