FAQ

Erica is the owner and primary photographer at erica b. tappis photography (AKA “erica photos”). She has been in business for 13 years here in Montgomery County. Erica has a wide range of specialties but her forte is capturing children. She is very quick to make her kid-clients feel comfortable in front of the camera and letting their personalities shine in her photos.

Erica has an Advance Pay registration system through “PhotoDay”. A link and access code for your child will be sent to the email address you provided to Bella Ballet/EMPOWER.
Didn’t get a code? Text 240-307-4530 with your child’s name and we will send it to you with the link to register.
Registration is VERY FAST – your child’s info (including class) has been pre-loaded. Just purchase an Advance Pay credit and you’re done. You do NOT have to decide what to buy before you see the images. You must however decide how many costumes you would like your child photographed individually. One costume? One credit. Easy Peasy. Your total Advance Pay credit will be applied in full towards the print or digital image package of your choice. ALL dancers will be included in the class photos - regardless if you have purchased a credit or not!

$25 each kid, each costume. Siblings can NOT share Advance Pay credits this year - however we WILL be taking sibling photos! Just bring both (or all 3) of your kids together in-costume to ONE of their class photo times. You can check them in together - we will get it done!

YES!! While you must purchase an Advance Pay credit before picture day to have your child’s portrait taken, you can wait to see the image(s) before deciding what to buy! Print and digital packages, canvases, statues, class photos and smaller items area available. The packages are all customizable - so if you have multiple images, you can use whatever image you want to fill the package.

Just want the class photo? Your job here is done! Just bring them to the studio at your scheduled Picture Day time. If your child appears in the class photo, you will receive an email after picture day when the class photos are available for purchase. No Advance Pay is required. NOTE: The digital copies of class photos are NOT for sale.

Yes, of course! Erica and her team will capture all three recitals on June 8 and will get as many action shots of your superstars on stage as possible! Image galleries will be posted and emailed a couple weeks after the recital. If you don’t use your Advance Pay credit in full for Picture Day purchases, you can use it towards recital images.

Don't hesitate to email, text or call Erica directly. She is happy to help.
