We plan the position, timing and light with you well in advance, then bring the staging and the team to set several hundred people quickly and calmly. The final image is assembled and retouched to our own standard, with nothing left to chance.
The photograph is printed large, so that it can be read. We offer a range of sizes and finishes, from a framed print for the entrance hall to smaller copies for families, all produced to archival standard.
Each year's photograph joins the last. Many schools display a run of them along a corridor, and alumni return years later to find themselves. We keep a copy of every image we take for you, indefinitely.
We can also digitise and restore older school photographs you already hold.
Your Own ArchiveNo two schools are the same shape, and no two sites present the same challenge. If yours is unusual, tell us. Our team has photographed schools on hillsides, in cathedrals and on sports fields, and will make yours work.

We agree a covered fallback position when we visit. If the day itself is impossible we will return, at no extra cost, to take the photograph properly.
Yes. Alongside the large framed print for the school, families order their own copies online in a range of sizes.
The autumn and early summer terms are busiest. A term's notice is ideal, though we will always try to help at shorter notice.
Tell us a little about your school and when you would like the photograph taken, and a member of our team will be in touch to plan it with you.
