Why Choose us?
We know how important memories are and take great
pride in preserving them with high quality products and services. We strive to create a relaxed but efficient process for schools and other group photography. Gone are the days of one pose, one background choice. We take at least three photos of each student and offer 30+ background choices. Our clients love that our system never requires them to decide how many photos they will purchase before they see the images. We utilize an easy online ordering system where parents can browse their children’s portraits and place orders at their leisure. They have complete control of pose choices, backgrounds, and cropping.
What We Do
Picture Day
We discuss and decide on date(s), location and setup. We use a roster of all students and staff to generate a QR code for each person we will photograph. On photo day, each child is given their QR card and will be photographed in 2 to 3 poses they choose from the pose banner. There is no collection of order forms or payments on site making the process as contactless as possible.
Personalized Online Ordering System
An online gallery will be made for each person photographed (students, faculty, and staff). Scanning the QR code with a phone or tablet takes them directly to their gallery. QR Code cards also have instructions on how to access galleries without scanning.
- Each gallery also allows more than one access code to be entered so that parents/guardians can view and purchase all of their children's photos in one place.
Choices Choices Choices!
Parents will be able to choose which pose and background they would like for each product purchased. They also have complete control of cropping for each image. There are traditional print packages, digital downloads, and specialty items available.
Fast and Reliable Service!
The online galleries are usually available to view and make purchases within a week following picture day. The amount of time parents will have to make orders can be planned with your school or organization.

Data needed for our process from your school or organization
- Data we ask you to supply changes based on your specific needs and delivery options your organization prefers.
- Rosters are usually necessary that include names, group age/grades, teacher/coach names and ID numbers if applicable.
- This process allows us to have reliable photo day data and create accurate online galleries for students, teachers, groups, teams and families!
- Collecting parents/guardian emails and using them to contact parents about photo day makes it easy for us to give them information about pre and post photo day information. We keep our information informative and take the stress off of your team by professionally and efficiently communicating with them directly regarding questions and order assistance related to their photos. (This is only if your school or organization allows us to use email addresses)
- Student ID numbers are handled with the utmost privacy and are needed when schools require them for their administrative system purposes. If schools need ID cards developed, etc that makes that process easy and seamless for us to deliver reliable service to schools.
