The Beauty of Life Captured
Deary's Gymnastics Photo Week 2025
WELCOME!
Ginger Photography is proud to be this years photo week photographer for
Deary's Gymnastics! We are excited to be working with Deary's to provide some awesome sports portraits of your athletes! Please use this page as a resource for before, during, and after photo day. Here you will find all of the necessary information to ensure your athlete has the best experience during their photos.
BEFORE PICTURE DAY
Please check with your coach to verify which day your athletes photo will be taken as I will be on-site from
May 5th - 10th. We will be photographing every athlete on a WHITE background, so if you are in a class that chooses their own leo please plan accordingly!
All parents should have received at least one email from us over the past month. If you did not receive an email, please reach out to us so we can make sure that a) your athlete is on our list and b) we have the correct email on file for you. Since all viewing and purchasing will be done online, and each athlete has their own private gallery with secure access code, it is imperative that you are able to receive email communications from us! You can reach us at gagnon.mikayla@gmail.com
You may have seen that we are currently offering 10% off orders when you purchase an AdvancePay credit of $75 or more. You are not required to purchase an AdvancePay credit as we will be photographing every athlete. HOWEVER, this offer will expire before photos are published so if you are on the fence we suggest taking advantage! You can also view all of the packages and a la carte options prior to picture day by clicking the following link and entering the individual access code that was sent to your email:
DURING PICTURE DAY
All athletes will have their individual photo taken, as well as a team photo. If you have multiple children that attend Deary's, we are happy to take a sibling photo to be included in their galleries. If time allows we will also be offering buddy photos, or images of your athlete with their friend(s) in the same class. Any image that your athlete is in will be available for purchase through your private gallery.
You will notice that we will be taking an image of each athlete with either a cellphone or tablet prior to their session. This reference photo is solely used within our app as a reference photo for your private gallery. When we upload images, our site uses face recognition to pull any images that match to your athletes reference photo into their private gallery. This image will not be saved or shared in any other form. Without this image, you will not be able to view and purchase your athletes photos.
Coaches will help athletes with poses throughout each session. If you are present during their session, we ask that you please let us and the coaches do what we do best to produce amazing images of your athlete. Our goal is to be as efficient as possible since we are on a strict timeline with many athletes to get through. Also please note that no cellphones are permitted in the photo area.
​
Be sure your athlete comes ready for their photo to be taken. Hair should be done, leos on, and any visible body parts should be clean (face, arms, legs, feet). Although we do offer blemish removal, this is solely for MINOR blemishes. Any extensive blemish removal will be an additional cost and should be brought to the photographers attention PRIOR to purchase. If your child wears glasses, and you notice a glare/reflection in their lenses in the images that you plan to purchase, please reach out. Due to the high volume of glasses worn by athletes, and the varying types of lenses causing different reflective issues, I will only edit those who reach out PRIOR to placing their order. I appreciate your understanding in this matter.
AFTER PICTURE DAY
We aim to have all images uploaded within two weeks of the last picture day at Deary's Gymnastics. As soon as the images are published, you will receive an email notification. To be one of the first notified, please opt-in to our text communications! Be sure you are using the link sent to your email to access your athletes images (https://galleries.photoday.io/gallery).
​
To access your published gallery, go to the above link, click "Add Gallery", and enter the individual access code provided to you (if you have not received a code, please email us). Next, favorite the images you wish to use in your purchase:
Once you have chosen your images, you will be able to shop our variety of packages, prints, digitals, and specialty products. If you are have difficulty locating all of our product options, please reach out!
​
When building your package and ordering prints/products, you will notice that you have the ability to crop the images how you like. Please remember that what you see on your screen is how your image will print. If a hand, arm, leg, head, etc is cut-off when you click "confirm", that is exactly how it will print.
Once your order is placed, it is sent directly to our partner lab who begins production immediately in order to get your products to you as quickly as possible. If you are unsure about whether an image will fit the print size or product you are looking for, please do not hesitate to reach out PRIOR to placing your order. We are unable to stop orders that have been sent to the lab.
Ginger Photography is not liable for improper cropping of images. It is solely the consumers responsibility to view and confirm that the images they are ordering fit properly within the blue guidelines and that nothing is cut-off due to sizing restraints.
The galleries will be active for SIX WEEKS total once published. You will receive reminders if you have not placed your order, and you will be notified before the gallery expires. Once they expire, the prices will increase and the galleries will become active again.
Have Multiple Athletes? Keep Reading!
You can purchase a package or a la carte items for each of your athletes using one shopping cart. Once you have added your desired products to your shopping cart for your first athlete, click "Menu" at the top of the page, click "Galleries" in the drop down, and then click "+ Add Gallery". Type in the next athletes access code and add the next set of products to your cart. Once you have shopped for all of your athletes and added their products to the cart, go to the cart and checkout in a single purchase.
You cannot combine multiple athletes images into a single package. If you have multiple athletes, please reach out to us directly for your personalized sibling discount code.
