Photo Day Tips


For specific details related to your school please find your school information page by entering your School Code (advertised at your school) or school name in our helper bot bottom right. If you cannot find your school please click this link we will send you your details.

The following are guidelines...

How To Prepare
  • Your school may have special instructions on what to wear. If they do, those instructions will be in your school information page.
  • If there are no special instructions about what to wear we recommend wearing a white collared shirt, with a tie if you like.
  • Practice your smile and posture in front of a mirror before photo day. It takes you and the photographer to capture your best expression.
  • If you need a haircut before photo day, aim to have it done a week ahead of time.
  • Use your regular makeup. Touch up all blemishes. Do your nails the day before. You do not need to have a heavy application of makeup for professional photography. Look natural and your photos will reflect that.
  • We cannot retouch a five o'clock shadow. We recommend you shave a few hours prior to your session.
  • All glasses glare in varying degrees. Photographers are trained to reduce glare on the lens. Feel free to wear them for your photos. Or, you are welcome to remove your lens when arriving for your session, doing so will guarantee no glare. Please bring your own tools if you plan to remove lens.
