How it works

School photos with Apollo & Ivy are different from the old standard school pics. No marbled backgrounds, green screens, or props 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.

After picture day

  • If you pre-register, I’ll email you a link to your child’s gallery. LMN will send a message with a link to the gallery to all families.
  • Your child will have their own album containing the best images, usually 4 to 8 images per child. Each image will be provided in color and black & white.
  • Place your order right from the online gallery. Choose a package or order a la carte (a price list is below). The gallery store has prints, canvases, digital downloads, and ornaments. 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 add visual interest: suspenders, ruffles, a cute little bow-tie… lots of options!
  • For babies, try to choose tops that don’t darken when they get wet (slobber is inevitable with the littlest ones)!
  • Avoid:
      • Black, navy, dark gray… really any dark colors 
      • Ultrabright and neon colors
      • Small thin stripes or tiny checkered prints
      • Logos or shirts with large writing
  • Consider allowing your child to pick a favorite outfit within these parameters to capture even more of their personality!
