Picture Day Schedule

FOR CLASS NUMBER REFERENCE - Class Schedule

Picture Day Dates : May 2 - 4, 2025
at our Springfield location.

Pictures are taken at Turning Pointe Dance Center
191 Mountain Avenue, Springfield NJ.
DancePix, a professional dance photography company is coming to take class and individual pictures of our students.
 

There will be no regular classes on these three days.

In order to ensure that Picture Weekend is enjoyable and runs smoothly, we ask for parental cooperation:
- Please complete the order form envelope on picture day. Remember to add Shipping & Sales Tax. Packages are prepaid by cash, checks, money orders and credit cards (Visa, Mastercard & American Express). Please see the DancePix representative for payment by credit card. No child will be photographed individually without payment. No Exceptions! Make checks payable to: DancePix, LLC. Returned checks will be charged a $25 fee. If you have two children, they may be photographed together in any package. A DancePix associate will help to total your order.

 
- DancePix also offers specialty items—statues, key chains, mugs and photos on canvas and fine art paper. These will be on display at your school on picture day. They have a special-order form—please ask for it. They can be ordered after you receive your finished photos.

- Dancers should arrive on the set “camera ready”, with costumes, hair, and make-up in place before they walk onto the background.
- Please make costume changes quickly so we can stay on schedule.
- If the dancer has a favorite pose, be sure to mention it to the poser and photographer.
- Because every photo gets tender loving care, you should expect to receive your finished photos by USPS Priority Mail in about 8 weeks (about 2 months) of the shoot day.

Bring your smile & have fun!

Students ages 3-7 years of age should arrive dressed in costume, with hair sprayed/gelled back in a low bun (no bangs/no part). Their headpiece securely fastened, all props, dance shoes and dance bag labeled with name. Light makeup is optional.
 
Students ages 8-18 should arrive dressed in first costume, in full makeup with hair sprayed/gelled back in a low bun (no bangs/no part). All dancers must wear Rhinestone Performance earrings which are available for sale at the front desk for $10.
 
Team dancers should wear stage makeup. The eyeshadow should be a Smokey Eye effect with dark grey colors and fake lashes. The lipstick should be a fire engine red.

As always, if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation!

WHAT TO WEAR? Be creative! Ask children to dress up for chosen themes. Or, have children wear comfortable clothing that they can move around in freely. Dance shoes or sneakers.
WHAT TO BRING? We suggest that you MAKE IT SIMPLE!!! Bring plastic tablecloths so children can sit on the floor rather than use tables and chairs – it’s much safer and easier. Paper goods (plates, napkins, utensils, cups, etc). For food and refreshments, we recommend pizza, cupcakes or anything easy. Our staff will help you serve. Please bring your own candles, matches, cake server, goodie bags, etc. Mirrors may be decorated 15 minutes before start of party with balloons and streamers. (Note: We have a large music selection. Just bring any special music you require).

If you wish to open presents and/or need more time to serve refreshments, you may rent the party room for an additional fee of $50.00 per half hour (if scheduling permits). Please note that due to scheduling constraints no refunds can be given for cancellations.

We take care of everything – you just have fun and enjoy the party!
