  1. Thanks everyone for your helpful advice. We would usually ask our dd's old dance teacher from home to help with the photos which she would do willingly. However as dd is not home now for a few weeks we will be cutting it fine timewise to do that. With hindsight we should really have been more organised and done it in the summer holidays, but hey ho! Hence that's why we're now looking at dance photographers who can do it whilst she is away at school. Unfortunately as I'm sure so many of you here know that's just one of the little problems of having them away from home for weeks on end!
  2. Could anyone recommend a dance photographer in the Birmingham area, preferably city centre? I'm looking for one who could take some audition photos but hopefully won't make me bankrupt in the process! Looking online I see there are lots and lots of photographers out there but I have no idea who's good for dance shots.
  3. Thanks everyone for your kind words and support. I know you're all making sense and what you've all said we've said much the same in the past to our dd too! We're hoping it will pass and thankful that the holidays are nearly here for a break. As I've said already we knew ballet was a hard business to get into but we're still shocked at times at how some people can act. It's opened our eyes.
  4. Just wondering what others feel about this? After a few years at vocational school we're well aware just how competitive the world of ballet is but when does it overstep the line? Our child was in tears again today after class where she messed up in a couple of things. The teacher was good about it and dd wasn't upset by the fact that she messed up as she knows that happens to everyone. She was more upset because she was aware of some of the class tittering and making comments. She says it just makes her feel rubbish. We've told her she just has to ignore them but it's getting her down as it's happened before. She's quite mature, works hard and can put up with a lot but my question is, should she have to? We've always taught her to try to treat others as you'd like to be treated yourself and maybe that's why she's finding this so tough. She's been doing fine at school and her reports and feedback have been good so far. I'd appreciate any advice anyone might have if they've been in similar circumstances.
