*Retake day is for new students and staff members, transfer students, or anyone who may have missed the initial picture day. Additionally, we welcome anyone unhappy with their original picture and would like to give it another try. Your retake photo automatically replaces the original photo in school services and the yearbook. If a student chooses to retake their photo, please have them return the original picture package to the photographer on picture day. We will replace it at no additional cost.
If this is the first time being photographed, please have the student/staff member go to the camera, and we’ll create a proof for them that will be sent to the school (and/or to their family email, if we have that information). These proofs will be delivered approximately 4 weeks after picture day. An order code will be on the proof along with ordering instructions.
