How it works
School photos with Apollo & Ivy are different from the old standard school pics. No marbled backgrounds, props, or flashbulbs here!
Fine art school photos keep the focus on your child’s unique personality. I spend time with them, make them smile and laugh, then capture their expressions, from pensive to sweet to silly.
Your next steps
- Fill out the form at the bottom of this page to register your child for picture day. You can request sibling photos, provide a password for me to use on your child’s gallery, join my mailing list, and accept/decline the model release.
- You’ll receive a link to a password-protected gallery within 3 weeks of picture day containing the best images of your child, usually 4–6 photos, but sometimes more if they were really turning on the cuteness!
- Choose from the packages described below or order a la carte prints, canvases, and digital downloads. There’s no obligation to buy.
What to wear
Your child’s photos will be taken against a black backdrop, so keep that in mind when choosing clothing.
I recommend:
- Light-colored tops in solid colors or subtle prints. Consider colors that make your child’s eye color pop!
- Small bows (less than 4″ wide), headbands or barrettes at the side of the head.
- Details at the sleeves, neck, and collar.
- Avoid:
-
- Large amounts of black, navy, and other dark colors
- Ultrabright and neon colors
- Small thin stripes or small checkered prints
- Logos, large graphics, or writing
-
- Consider allowing your child to pick a favorite outfit within these parameters to capture even more of their personality!
