The Parent Pitch

We've jotted down a few things to keep in mind when talking to your parents about your senior portraits. This might help them understand why little PHOTOGRAPHY is the best place for you to get your portraits done.
__________

School photographers
go for quantity over quality, herding you through like cows; and you know what happens when cows “graduate”. Everyone gets eaten.

sit you on a stool, or a Styrofoam “2009” bar, tell you to fake smile and clickity-click – you’re through.

give you mediocre images that look the same as everyone else’s.

little PHOTOGRAPHY
gives you pictures as awesome and original as you.

doesn’t allow Styrofoam “2009” bars near the premises.

works with you for hours, rather than minutes.

can design your grad announcements and yearbook page using your portraits.

offers cool products (like slide shows, digital images, albums, custom collections, and all the prints you’re used to).

can submit your drape or tux shots for the yearbook.**

*most schools allow this; but some may have contractual obligations with another studio. please check with your school if you would like tux or drape shots.

A Good Choice

Did you know that you don't have to get your pictures taken by the school photographer? Did you know that other studios can submit your yearbook pictures too?

We want you to be informed about your options so you can make a good decision about where to get your senior portraits done.

There are reviews out there for the leading companies that work with the schools to provide senior portraits. Check them out. Make a good decision.

Another Yearbook Page Example

Whitney needed a design to accommodate several images and a lot of text.

Take a look at the senior page we came up with for her:

Custom Yearbook Pages

We're on a mission to spread the word: high school seniors don't have to purchase senior portraits from the school photographer.

Go to a specialty studio like ours and get incredible portraits that are all about you and who you are. Not "tilt your head and smile" portraits. Real, celebrity caliber portraits.

We can submit your tux or drape shots for the yearbook just like the school photographer can. So don't be fooled into paying a ton of money for cookie-cutter portraits.

You can also have a great, custom yearbook page designed just for you using images from your session.

Here are a couple of examples.






Your portraits should be as unique and significant as you.
