Team Pictures 2009

September 24th-25th

We are so excited for our upcoming team pictures. Darla Rozema will be doing our pictures again this year. She always does a fabulous job and you can check out her fabulous work at darlarozephotography.com. This year we have decided to do our pictures on location. We will be doing them at the Star Mill in American Fork. The address is 147 E. 600 N. The following directions are as if you were coming from the studio.
Head North on State Street for 6.2 miles
Slight left at E Main Street 486 ft.
Take the 2nd right onto 100 E. 0.8 miles
Turn right at 600 N. 302 ft.

Darla will be taking pictures of the entire team along with separate shots of each individual girl on that team. This will all be done within the given team picture time frame. We ask that everyone get to the location 15 minutes earlier then your scheduled team picture time. We are under a strict time frame due to the pictures being outside and having to work with the lighting of the sun. So please make sure that you come when we have asked you to. Darla is also going to be doing any family, friend, or outside group shots for anyone at our studio who is interested. We have several time slots for those pictures. If you are interested in a family picture please call the office to reserve one of the times. You will receive information from Darla at your dancer’s specific picture time, giving you details on pricing and how to proof and purchase these pictures. The schedule is as follows:
Wednesday September 23rd
5-7pm Family/Friend/Outside Group Picture Slots (Every 30 minutes)

*Minis/Extreme/Jr. Prep will not have any class at the studio on Thursday September 24th. They just need to come to pictures and that is it.
**Sr. Company/Teen Company will not have ballet levels on Thursday September 24th, but will however have the rest of their scheduled classes that day.

What to Wear:
Since the pictures are going to be outside and we are doing them in the fall, we ask that every team wear street clothes in fall colors. This means deep browns, reds, plums, greens, yellows, oranges and blues. We do not want bright sunny colors, but more deep muted versions of these colors. You can wear anything from shorts, skirts, dresses, pants, jeans, shirts, sweaters, vests and jackets. Please be creative and don’t forget to accessorize with any hats, scarves, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, headbands, belts and socks. Any shoes may be worn we just ask that they are closed toe shoes, so no sandals or flip flops. Fingernail polish is allowed, but please make sure if you are going to wear it that it is in the appropriate color scheme.

Hair & Make-up
Hair may be done however you would like. We would like a variety so remember to be creative. We would like to see some down, curly, wavy, straight, half up or all the way up. Please take time to make your hair look nice for the picture.
Make-up needs to be worn by all teams no matter what the age. It doesn’t need to be as dramatic as stage/performance make-up, but still needs to be seen. All dancers need to be wearing powder, blush, earth tone eye shadows (neutral browns, or plums), eyeliner (maybe not the tiny little girls), mascara, and any soft pink lipstick. We then ask that a clear gloss be put over the soft pink lipstick. We want everyone to wear their own make-up and lipstick so that germs are not spread. These pictures need to look uniform and professional so please take time in getting ready so that you look your best for the picture.

Team pictures are very important to us at the studio. Again, please be sure to be on time at the location completely ready to go. If you have any questions concerning any of this please contact the office at 801-224-8738 and we will be happy to answer those for you. Thank you for all that you do!
