• A private, password-protected online proofing gallery

2nd Most Common Question

It’s been more than 2 weeks since my session, but I haven’t received my proofing gallery. Where is it?
Your gallery email likely landed in your spam or junk folder.

• Please search your inbox for “gallery@photoday.io” or “Evan Pike Photography.”

• Pro tip: Add “gallery@photoday.io” to your contacts or safe senders list so you never miss a gallery email!

If you still can’t find your gallery, just reach out and we’ll resend it.

3rd Most Common Question

Are all the photos really taken outside?
Yes—senior portraits are outdoors only!
We switched to outdoor sessions during COVID, and the feedback has been so positive that we’ve kept it this way. If you prefer a formal studio look, you’re welcome to book with another photographer—but only outdoor portraits taken at these sessions will appear in the yearbook.

Quick Recap:

• The session is free for all rising seniors

• 10-minute outdoor shoot + private gallery to pick your two yearbook portraits

• No purchase required, but you can order prints and digitals if you wish

• Gallery not received? Check spam or contact us

• Outdoor portraits only for the yearbook

Senior Portrait FAQ Continued

What kind of senior portrait session is this?

We won’t be taking formal drape/tux portraits indoors. Both of your yearbook portraits will be selected from your outdoor session.

Bring your own outfit to show off your personality and style—just please keep it school-appropriate!

Where will sessions be held?

Meet the photographers outside the entrance of the upper gym (just up the stairs from the senior parking lot). Here’s a Google Maps link.

Can I bring someone with me?

Yes! You’re welcome to bring a friend or family member for support—or even include them in a couple of your photos. Just remember, yearbook portraits must feature only the senior.

What are the portrait requirements for the yearbook?

Every senior picks two portraits:

• One close-up (headshot)

• One ½-length or ¾-length photo

What if I need to reschedule?

No problem!

• Let us know by replying to your booking confirmation email or texting 984-777-9997

• Then visit the booking site to pick a new available time

What if it rains?

• If it’s a short rain, we’ll try to wait it out

• If it looks like it’ll last or there’s severe weather, we’ll reschedule

• Watch your email for weather updates and rescheduling info

Is there a makeup day?

No official makeup day is set right now. If we have a lot of rain, we’ll add more dates to make sure everyone gets a session.

How many outfits can I wear?

• You can change outfits once (not required, but it’s an option!)

• Make sure everything you wear is school-appropriate—no strapless tops or shirts with inappropriate messages

• The school may not always be open, so you might need to change in your car

• Pro tip: If you want two totally different looks, book two free sessions!

Any outfit or makeup tips?

• Tops: Sleeves are usually more flattering than sleeveless/very short sleeves

• Avoid shirts with inappropriate messages and very baggy clothes

• Solid, bold colors photograph best; avoid distracting patterns or very light/pastel shades

• Makeup: Go a little bolder than usual, but don’t try anything brand new on picture day. Matte lipstick helps with glare.

• Guys: Please shave unless you’re intentionally growing facial hair

Can I bring props?

Yes! Feel free to bring a prop related to your sport or hobby. Just remember, no items that are prohibited on campus.

Is there a minimum purchase?

Nope—the session is free and purchasing is completely optional!

• Packages start around $150

• Custom collections require a $350 minimum order

Can I pick my yearbook portraits if I don’t buy anything?

Yes, absolutely! You’ll receive a proofing gallery and step-by-step instructions for selecting your yearbook images.

How do I choose my yearbook portraits?

You’ll get instructions with your gallery.  You will pick your 2 poses directly in your proofing gallery.
