PASSCODE: WS2024

Frequently Asked Questions:

Can I sign up for retakes if we already bought images from the fall?

Absolutely! You may sign up for retakes regardless of whether or not you had photos taken in the fall and whether or not you bought photos from the fall. Please note: The retake photos will not be included in the same album as before. They will have a new album with the exact same pricing structure.

What is included in the 8th Grade Senior Portraits?

I included these this year, thinking of how special this moment is for the 8th graders. I love HS Senior Portraits because it is such an important milestone in “becoming” who you are and who you’ll be. 8th graders go through another important transition as they move into their high school years and a new school. They have learned so much about who they are and what their interests are throughout elementary school and middle school. I want to offer a chance to capture some of this essence of who they are right now - as they prepare to move into the next stage of life.

This will still be a studio portrait session - yet longer than school portraits:
8th graders may choose to bring siblings to the shoot and/or a special prop that says something about who they are and what they are interested in. They should also prepare to dress in a way that represents who they are at this time and as their best: Whatever that means to them.

How do I order all of the digitals?

Click on any image. Then, choose “Buy Photo”. From there you’ll see the options for everything from packages, prints, to digitals. Choose “Digitals”. There are two options: “Single Photo” (for $45) or “All Photos in the Album” (for $100).

If you have siblings, I added sibling photos within each album (as opposed to a separate album). This way you can choose to order all images in one album and just one or two from another - if you choose to.

When will my prints arrive?

Digital downloads are available immediately - check your email after ordering!

Prints and wall art will be sent to you directly from the studio - typically less than a week (depending).

Can I change the crop of an image?

Yes! If you see an image you would like to crop differently - you may change it yourself for Wall Art (frames and canvases). For prints, please comment on the image with details about how you would like it cropped when you order - If I have any questions about the crop, I’ll reach out before ordering.

When I order for you - I crop the image similar to what you see, however - I will choose a crop that is mostly centered, and includes the important aspects!

Why does the preview show a square image - with part of the student cut off?

I don’t know why the site does it this way! But this is not how the image will be cropped. The “preview” is really just to show you which image was chosen. The actual crop will be similar to what you see in your gallery/album. I hand crop each image according to your size choice and any notes you place in the comments. BTW! If you would like to rotate an image from horizontal to vertical (especially for wallets) let me know in the comments!

Do you offer retouching?

Yes! If you see a very small blemish that I missed (such as evidence of snack or a small scratch). I’m happy to do that on the house for prints, and wall art. Just make a comment on the image when you order. If you would like a retouch beyond that - or if you would like all images retouched for digitals. Please email me or choose “retouching”. It is typically $25/image depending on what you would like.
