Senior Portraits during Covid-19

This year we will not take a drape/tux formal portrait inside it would not be sanitary to share the drape/tux between students. Instead, both yearbook portraits will be picked from the single outdoor session.

With our camera gear and outdoor locations, it will be easy to stay a safe distance from each other. Two seniors my be schedule around the same time only if two photographers are available. There is no in person paperwork or information distributed. All information is digital.

Can I bring somebody to my session?

Yes, if you'd like to bring a friend or family member for support or to be in a photo or two with you but please keep in mind that your yearbook portrait will have to be one of only the senior and take into consideration any current health advisories.

What are portrait requirements for the yearbook?

Every senior will pick two portraits for the yearbook, a closer headshot and another that is 1/2 or 3/4 length.

What happens if I need to reschedule?

No problem! Please go back to booking site, find an available date/time and reply to the confirmation email that you want to change.

What if it rains?

If it looks like a quick shower that will pass, we may take cover and wait it out but if it looks like it will go on for a while, we will reschedule. Of course we won't take portraits in severe weather and we may need to reschedule your session. If there is a chance for severe weather, please check your email for an update on rescheduling.

When is make up day?

While there will be a make up days, dates have not been set yet.

How many outfits can I wear?

You only need one but you can bring another outfit if you'd like to change once. Keep in mind that sessions are only 10 minutes long and you will be changing inside a restroom at school.

Do you have any outfit or makeup suggestions?

Avoid shirts that are sleeveless or have very short sleeves as they will tend to over emphasize your arms. While it's tempting to wear something without sleeves because of summer weather, sleeves are more flattering in portraits.
Avoid T-shirts’ with inappropriate messages.
Avoid excessively baggy clothes, shirts should fit well around shoulders for a more flattering portrait.
Solid and bold colors tend to photograph better than light or pastel colors or elaborate patterns that may be distracting.
If you'd like to wear makeup, we suggest that your makeup should be slightly more than normal everyday wear. Avoid too much around your eyes and don't try anything new the day of your session. Even if you never wear foundation, consider wearing some to reduce shine. Due to glare, matte lipstick is recommended over lipgloss.
Guys, please shave the day of your session unless you are purposely growing facial hair.

Can I bring props?

Yes, if you'd like to bring a prop related to a hobby or sport, you are welcome to do so. Of course you may not bring anything on campus that is otherwise not allowed on campus.

Is there a minimum purchase?

The session is complimentary and purchasing is optional!

Can I pick out my yearbook portraits even if I don't purchase anything?

Yes! Everyone will have a proofing gallery and instructions on how to pick out your yearbook portraits.
