Mommy/Daddy & Me

  • Choose coordinated outfits in soft or solid colors 
  • Cute pink ballet leotard, skirt, or tutu works beautifully for photos 
  • Avoid bold patterns or logos that distract from your child
  • Comfortable but neat clothing — you’ll want to move naturally in photos
  • Minimal accessories work best
     

Adult Students

  • Wear solid, flattering colors that make you feel confident
  • Avoid busy patterns or large logos
  • Hair and makeup should be polished but natural for a professional look 
  • Performing class students may wear their Spring Gala costume if they prefer
     

Pre-Ballet & Ballet 1

  • Dancers should wear their Spring Gala costumes for both group and individual photos
     

Ballet 2–6

All Dancers

  • Arrive with hair and makeup fully done

  • Bring any necessary accessories for costumes or outfits
     

Tips for the Best Photos:

  • Coordinated, polished looks photograph beautifully 
  • Neat hair, clean shoes, and proper tights make a big difference
  • Less is more with patterns and accessories — the focus is on your dancer
     


Long hair should be tightly pulled back into a bun, with no loose strands. We recommend using gel and hairspray for a clean, polished look.


Light makeup is encouraged to enhance features on camera. Consider using a bit of blush, mascara, etc.


Due to limited space, only parents of the current time slot are permitted in the lobby. Please note, only dancers and staff will be allowed in the photography area. This helps us keep the schedule moving smoothly, creating a calm environment for everyone.
