what are modern school portraits?

Modern school portraits are heirloom-quality professional portraits free of cheesy or ornate backgrounds, forced smiles, or props. These photos capture each child's unique personality in a way that parents treasure. 

how does it work?

A couple of weeks after picture day, you will receive a link to the photo gallery and will view your student’s photos in a password-protected online album, where you will be able to place orders for digital files and/or prints and products. Most student galleries will have a variety of images to choose from, and you can mix images within a print package. No minimum order is required! Your digital file purchases will be delivered immediately, while prints will be delivered to the school after the ordering deadline.

what should students wear for their photos?

Since I aim to create a beautiful timeless portrait of your child that you will display in your home, I highly recommend nice but simple clothing and hairstyle choices. Many parents end up ordering large prints or canvases, so you may consider the area in which they might be displayed, or colors that coordinate between siblings if you might display both portraits together. Almost all colors are fine, but I do recommend steering clear of large logos or neon.
