Frequently Asked QUESTIONS
-
Picture day should be fun and stress-free! Make sure your child arrives at school on time and ready for photos on their scheduled day. Please avoid using zinc-based sunscreens, as they can appear white and chalky in photos. A clear or non-whitening sunscreen is a better choice for picture day.
-
We recommend solid colors or simple patterns, as busy prints or logos can be distracting in photos. Most importantly, let your child wear something they feel confident and comfortable in!
-
Absolutely! No more guessing what your child’s photo will look like before ordering. You’ll be able to view all the images in your private gallery first, and only order what you LOVE.
