Visage Photography will offer individual and group sessions for our dancers during pre-scheduled times May 7-10, in our studio. A posed class photo will be taken and then dancers who wish to take individual portraits will be photographed in a variety of poses and close-ups.  If you are not doing individual photos, you may leave after the
group is photographed.

To reserve your session, stop by 620 Dance Centre during your designated costume distribution time to sign up, pay a $10 sitting fee (good for up to 3 costumes), and reserve your time to view beautiful 4x6 proofs.  If for some reason you don't like your picture, there is no obligation to buy anything.  But we think you'll be pleased how your dancer turns out.
