FAQ:

Why aren’t there photographers at all of our shows?

Our photographers cover regions of the circuit to provide the best coverage possible. Their costs are too high if they attend every show.

How do we choose photographers?
A request for proposals is posted each year on our website. Once the season begins, we do not accept more proposals.

Why don’t we have photographers in South Florida?
We haven’t received proposals from photographers in that area! Know someone? Send them our way!

Why don’t we use a big company for photos?
We prefer to use people who are connected to the FFCC and the Marching Arts. All three of our photographers this season have participated in the FFCC as performers, instructors, or parents. Their prices are lower than the average studio, and they have a passion for showing off your performers! Please patronize these hard-working ladies!
