Common Questions From School Owners

 

Does having a photo day at my school cost me anything?

No, there is no cost at all for school owners to have a photo day at their school.

 

How much is it for a school poster to be made for my school?

School posters are FREE, that is our thank you for letting us be your school photographer.  The school poster is one large colorful print that comes mounted on a lightweight board and is designed to be a floating mount where it is pushed away from the wall about an inch. It is also laminated for protection. There is no glass or frame to break.

Are there other things we could get besides the school poster?  

Yes, you can choose between several of our other services.  Our main options are making flyers, brochures, or business cards. Another option could be having a fund raiser or just receiving a kickback.  For more details please email us directly.

 

How far in advance do we need to schedule the photo day?

The sooner the better.  Yearly schedules fill up fast.  We prefer to have the sign up sheet and coming soon poster to be at your school for at least one month prior to the photo day.

 

How much space does the photographer need to set up?

About 25' x 15'  with access to a power outlet.

 

Can I get staff photos for free?

Yes of course, just let us know what you need.

 

Can I get a CD of all the pictures taken?

Yes, you can get a free CD of the photos to use for advertising for your school.

Here are a few tips to help you create a great photo

1- Choose techniques you want to use before the photo day so you can practice them in advance. Practicing in front of a mirror helps.

2- If you need ideas or help with choosing a pose for your picture, ask your instructor for help.

3- Choose techniques that you know and that you are comfortable with. This will help make you look natural in the photograph.

4- If you want to use a weapon in your photograph, first make sure it is OK with your instructor. If you are not very familiar with the weapon you would like to use, ask your instructor to show you a couple techniques with it that you can use in your picture.

5- Remember to bring everything you'll need: Uniform, belt, hair accessories, weapon (if you're using one), and a smile.
