One of the best dance photographer problems - working with dancers who can leap and jump SO HIGH they reach above the backdrops! 🤩
Another "before" picture - we're working through all of the photos from picture week at The Pointe School of Dance and LOVING the shots we've completed so far! 💖💜💙

We are needing to clear up some storage space in our online gallery for 2022 recital pictures - so 2020's galleries will only be online through April 24.

Families, if you need to order prints or digital images from 2020, please make sure to do so quickly! These will no longer be available after the end of the day on April 24, 2022.

Today... a behind-the-scenes peek at an image before and after processing! 🧐📸

EVERY image we take goes through a rigorous editing process so dancers get the best possible images - we want them to LOVE what they see and be really proud of what they receive!

Without too many boring details... Here's an overview of what every image that ends up in our online gallery goes through:

1 - Select the BEST image out of a few taken in the same pose (depending on the pose and dancer age, we take anywhere from 2-5 shots per pose!)
2 - Crop, center, and rotate the chosen image
3 - Adjust the color balance so backgrounds are crisp black or white
4- Eliminate any wrinkles/dropped sequins/tape spots/etc
5 - Adjust the subject's color balance to make costumes vibrant without impacting the dancer's skin tone
6 - Check for any other aspects that may need a little touch up - shoe straps out of place, glare from a flash on glasses, etc.

After ALL of these steps... we have an image that's ready to share.

It's a LOT of work... but getting these images captured and looking great to help families keep memories of their dance season is 100% worth every minute. 💖💜💙

We had a BLAST shooting The Pointe School of Dance Company dancers last night! 🤩 We have over 900 images to sort through, process, and edit - and based on the raw images we captured, we think they're going to turn out AMAZING! It sure helps when there are incredibly skilled dancers to work with. Here's a "before" image straight from the camera - we have so many great shots to work through!

Company families, expect to see online galleries filled with awesome images within the next 3-4 weeks. We can't wait to get these processed and ready to share with you!
