Our people, our philosophy and our processes are what make us different – and better – than any other school photography company.

Our Philosophy
Because giving back to schools is a core value for us, we don't think of ourselves as merely a vendor of photographic services. Rather, we approach our relationship as your full-fledged partner in education, doing what we can to help improve the learning climate in your school.

That's why we offer the most extensive menu of value-added school services and programs  in our industry.

Our Processes
Good intentions are not enough. Businesses that survive and thrive deliver on their promises every day. And we are no exception.

At the core of our success are systems and processes that enable us to continually deliver quality products and reliable services to schools nationwide.

Our competencies include :

• The industry’s most organized, well-planned Portrait Day – which means a hassle-free, pleasant experience for your teachers and students - we even ask you to grade us at the end of the day.
• The most accurate merging of student images with personalized data – which means superior administrative support and safety and security tools for you, and timely delivery of portrait packages and products to your families.
• Expert photographers trained to work with students – our photographers are screened carefully during the hiring process, then trained to capture award-winning smiles that will be preserved for lifetimes.
• Parent-friendly customer service – we back up our work with the industry’s strongest satisfaction guarantee, and handle service inquiries directly with your families.

This is why today we remain the oldest, largest and most-often-chosen school photographer in North America.

Our Programs
We offer three types of payment programs: prepay, family approval and proof.

Prepay Program
Prepay programs request that payment for package orders be made on Portrait Day.

Family Approval Program
Family approval programs allow families to preview the portraits before deciding whether to buy. Purchase orders and unpurchased portraits are to be returned to the school between five and 10 days (depending on the school).

Proof Program
This program provides a proof of your portraits and gives between five and ten days to return a portrait order to your school.
