How Fine Art Portraits Can Benefit Your School

Are you on the fence about switching school portrait companies? I get it! It can be hard to navigate away from something that’s familiar and you know works. But, I’ll let you in on a little secret. My little company can do all the same things the big companies can do. You’ll get better quality and customer service. So, what can I offer?

Same Offerings

What are some necessary essentials your school looks for when it comes to hiring a school portrait company. It might be what they can offer. The great news is that I can offer many of the same things big companies can;

  • Resized and formatted yearbook or database images
  • ID cards
  • Photos for both students and staff
  • Group photos
  • Online ordering with a private customized web page for your school

Your school gets a customized experience based on your needs!

No Charge and Money Back

I do not charge your school for this experience. You do not have to pay me to come to your school to take photos. I get paid based on picture orders that are received after picture day. And guess what? I even donate a small percentage of sales back to your school as a thank you! Not only are you getting amazing quality photos, but you’re also raising money for your school.

Quality Customer Care

If a parent has questions, or issues, they come directly to me. The school doesn’t need to worry about fielding questions or fixing problems. That’s my job. I make sure all questions are answered quickly and that all issues are addressed to the best of my ability. I want families to enjoy this experience and want to make the process as easy for them as possible.

No School Too Small

I’ve heard, “We’re too small” a lot this year when talking to schools about their school portrait options. Many of the big companies won’t even consider them because of their small size. Your school is not too small for me! The schools I work with range anywhere from 40 students, up to almost 500. Everyone deserves to have a school picture day!

Support Local

I’m a small, local business, so by supporting me, you’re also supporting your community! And I work hard to support local too. Whether that’s volunteering to help a school with a project, or by sourcing my photography materials in state, I understand the benefits and importance of supporting local!

If you’re ready for a change with your school portrait experience, I’d love to chat! I’m currently accepting new schools for spring and fall of 2022. Can’t wait to hear from you!

Wow! Over the last few weeks I feel like our industry has really been tested. We've had to revisit our workflows and practices, all because others made horrendous choices. It's been a little heavy and a little stressful.

We have done our due diligence and can say with confidence that all the systems we use for school picture day are safe and secure.

Working with a small, locally owned school portrait company has its advantages. It has to mean something that keeping your student safe in this digital world keeps us awake at night and makes us look at every part of our business under a microscope to make sure that we do not fail you.

We are parents too, so we understand the scrutiny when it comes to protecting our kids. We want what's best for you and your students. We go above and beyond to make sure your students images and data are safe. 

Take a look at our latest blog post to see what safeguards we have in place to protect the students we work with.

This mom’s most favorite season. School picture updates! They have certainly grown, and so have my skills. What a gift to be the one taking their school photos year after year. Can’t believe we won’t be doing this for our oldest next year. What are your favorite ways to display your kids school pictures? #schoolportraits #schoolphotography #denverphotographer #denverschoolphotographer #schoolphotography
Running your own business has its challenges. I’m going into this fall season feeling a little shaky. If I’m completely honest, I’ve questioned if this work is truly what I’m supposed to keep doing. If it really matters. 

Then I’m reminded of the impact we’ve had on our schools. Just yesterday I was at one of my favorite little schools with a HUGE heart, Humanex Academy. I was reminded how much this work impacts students and their families for the good and it pushes me to keep going.

So thankful for their continued trust and encouragement. And looking forward to sharing this year’s batch of images with their families.

First school of 2025/2026 in the books! Take a look at what equipment I had with me and what happens once I get home from picture day.
