Book Portrait Sessions
June 5+6 (Worcester), June 7 (Westborough), 2023Did you already book and forget to write your appointment on your calendar? Check your email spam folder for a confirmation email (search for “MNPhoto Appt”) and then text ME (NOT your dance studio) at 508-414-1656 if you still need help.
Portrait session overview:
- Go to your location (YOUR dance studio, UNLESS the sessions are during a dress rehearsal) for your individual session times, dressed and ready for portraits. For makeup, please keep in mind that portrait makeup is different than stage makeup. Less is probably more, and please avoid the use of glittery makeup. Avoid bra straps or undergarments that will show under your costume.
- If we’re not in the midst of a COVID surge, photos may be viewed immediately after the session, guided by a photo assistant in the lobby, at the discounted in-person rate (starting at $12 for a 4×6). You will also have the option of ordering online at the regular pricing rate (starting at $17 for a 4×6).
- Whether or not you order in-person, a link to the proof gallery for viewing and ordering will be delivered to your mailing address a few days after the session.
- If you gave permission to post photos online during the registration process, I will post your purchased photos in a Facebook album. I just ask that you please refrain from removing the logo in the bottom right corner when you repost them elsewhere.

FAQs
- Where will the photo sessions be held?
- For dance studios, unless the sessions are during a dress rehearsal, we will be set up in one of the rooms of your dance studio. If you end up going to my home address listed on this page, at least bring some donuts for my surprised family members.
- What kind of dance poses should I be prepared for?
- We will have a range of poses depending on the type of dance and the age and skill level of the dancer. But we also love to see the specific choreography from your dance, so if you'd like, plan ahead to show us your favorite parts of your dance.
- May my dancer have a few photos taken with a friend or group of friends?
- Yes, we try to build in enough wiggle room in the schedule to make this easy. For your convenience, just try to schedule your appointments close together.
- What if we have a million and a half outfits?
- Please repeat the process to book multiple sessions. We'll have another dancer go in for their pictures while your dancer changes outfits.
- How do I view and purchase the photos?
- Depending on what COVID is doing at the time, you will have the option of immediate viewing with a photo assistant at the dance studio, or online a day or two after the session. An email will be sent to you when the photos are ready, but there is also a link at the top of the page (older galleries are there now).
- How do I get my session fee credited to my order?
- Session fees may be credited for one month after the sessions fee. If purchasing in-person, we will apply that credit for you. If ordering online, once you have logged in with your Mike Nyman Photography account, you will be given the option of using your credits during the payment phase of checkout. See the "To Apply Credits" help page for step by step instructions.
- What if I already ordered and forgot to apply my credits?
- If your order was placed within one month from the session, send me a text (508-414-1656) and I'll issue a refund.
- I forgot to write down the time of my sessions. Where can I find that out
- Search your email (including your spam folder) for "MNPHOTO APPT ". if you still can't find it, send me a text (508-414-1656).
