Frear Announcements

Pre-order a picture package.
When an order is placed online, the parent/guardian will receive a camera pass via email. This can be printed or texted to the student and brought to picture day. The photographer will photograph the printed camera pass along with the student.
If a student cannot print their camera pass, that is not a problem. We will manually match the student to their order in the production process.
A parent may order from the flyer until 24 hours after picture day. After 24 hours, the online ordering access may close. This will allow our imaging team to "Pull" all orders submitted and match them with the students photographed.
When pictures are returned to school, all students who purchased pictures will receive their prepaid package. Any student who was photographed but did not order a package will receive a "Proof" (PX) of their picture that was taken on picture day. -
