Dear Parents:
It was a pleasure photographing your kids at Encore
Showcase Nationals 2004. Here are few important notes that will make your ordering
easier.
Organization of Photos:
All photos are organized in 15minute sessions. For example, if your kid
performed at 2:12 PM, you will find the photos in 1400-1415 session.
We organize the photos by the “actual performance” time and
not the “scheduled” time.
Theatrical Color Lights and Exposure:
Due to variety of theatrical color lights used at the recital,
the skin of the dancers had various colorcasts. We will do our very best
to remove the colorcast, however, please be aware that it can never be
as good as if the lighting was natural. Many pictures were shot with
partial lighting; in that instance, the photo is underexposed. Again,
we will do our best to lighten the photo, but please realize that we
can only brighten the photos so much.
Focus Point for Photos Containing More than One
Person:
If more than one person is in the photo, it is
possible that not all persons are in sharp focus. This happens when the
kids appear in different rows. Please make sure your kid is in focus prior
to placing your order. If you are not sure, you are always welcome to send
us an email
photocard to verify if your kid is in focus.
Cropping for Photos Containing More than One
Person:
We will generally crop for the subject in the center
of each photo. Please make sure to tell us if your kids appeared in the
edge of a specific photo so we can crop accordingly.
Removal of Partial Body Parts:
If an arm or leg of another person appears on the photo, we will do our
best to remove them if there is a clear separation between your dancer
and the other person. But please note that we are unable to remove the
unwanted bodies if there is any overlap of the part of the body from
another person.
Digital Files
Yes, we have digital files for solo dancers available for personal usage. Click

as cropping, color correction, exposure adjustment…. etc., please visit

Asked Questions section of our website.
Sincerely,
Action Snapshots, Inc.
* Please Note * We will generally keep event
photos online for at least six months. However, about 30 days after
the event, the original images will be archived (deleted off our hard
drive and archived on DVD). The price of photos at that time will be
a minimum of 30% higher
because it will take us time to find and to retrieve images. Please
place your order as soon as possible.
