HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS…YOU DO HAVE A CHOICE!

Yes, it is true that you have to go to the official school photographer to have your yearbook picture taken.  However, aside from the yearbook photo, you do not have to purchase any portraits from them.  You can have portraits taken at the studio of your choice where you may get lower prices and more personalized service.
 
The Professional Photographer’s of Association of America advocates giving students a choice in photographers when buying senior portraits.  It is a proven fact that the prices charged to students by the “official” school photographer are often inflated to cover other costs.  Your best protection as a consumer is to shop comparatively.
 
When you get ready to plan your senior portraits, here is some good information to consider:  a professional portrait is a combination of art, composition, and personality.  You and your photographer should work together to best portray who you are.
