Standard Package? Why Not Bring Props!

If you have booked a "Standard" grad portrait session and have some props that you would like to bring in to use for a few shots please feel free. With the "Standard" package you have the option to have some extra shots at the end that can be more casual and fun.

Props that pertain to your program, Queen's memorabilia and items that have sentimental value are a great idea and they can be incorporated into a few of your shots adding a personal touch to your photos. Above are examples of props that some grads have used.

Yearbook Deadline Extended!!!

Hello Graduates!

Just a reminder that the deadline to have your grad photo appear in the yearbook is fast approaching! The deadline this year has just been extended and is now:

April 10th, 2010

Book your graduate portrait session before this deadline to ensure that you will make it into the yearbook. There are still spots available so make sure you book early!

If you have already had your portrait session you must go online to view your images and select your "Tricolour Choice". This will be the image that will appear in the yearbook.

Style Tips For Your Graduate Portrait Session:

For Girls: Collared Shirt vs Shirt Without Collar?

When choosing whether to wear a collared dress shirt or a non-collared shirt here are some things to consider:

The collared dress shirt look is a little more classic and formal. Make sure your shirt is neatly pressed and a neutral colour, preferably white or black. If you require a dress shirt we have some available at the studio.

The non-collared dress shirt is a more contemporary look. It opens up the neck line a little and is another option to consider when planning your outfit for your portrait session. If you prefer the non-collared shirt look keep in mind to not wear anything too low cut and make sure that the shirt is not transparent, as it will be partially visible. This look is also great if you wish to wear a necklace. The same as the collared shirt mentioned above make sure you pick a neutral colour, preferably black or white.

For Guys: Freshly Pressed Shirt and Tie

Make sure that if you are bringing your own shirt and tie that they are neat and that your shirt is freshly pressed. If you require a white collared shirt and a tie we have some on hand here at the studio for you to wear.
