A Fresh Approach to School Portraits | Long Island Fine Art School Photographer

Apr 21

AUTHENTIC EXPRESSIONS + A CONNECTED APPROACH = TIMELESS IMAGES

I am excited to announce that I am now offering fine art photo services to schools and parents who want a modern and timeless approach to school photography. As a parent, I have felt the pressure to buy awkward school portraits of my daughter that simply do not represent her personality. Because I am a children and family photographer, I know that school photos can be so much more and that they do not have to be boring, forced, and awkward with unattractive backgrounds; instead, the school portrait should be relaxed, natural, timeless, and, most importantly, authentic.

To accomplish authentic imagery, I never force a smile and through personal and light hearted interaction, I simply aim to capture the essence of the children I photograph; there are no awkward poses or faces, just the child on that particular day. The results are genuine and timeless portraits that are far from the traditional cheesy photos with bright flashes, artificial light and unflattering, busy backgrounds to which we have become accustomed. The images are beautiful, classic and timeless.

I feel passionate about this project and I am going to offer mini session dates in May for parents who were unhappy with their child's school photos, missed the photo day, or just simply want a classic portrait of their child. You can also have sibling photos taken too. The mini session dates are: Saturday May 6th, May 11th, and May 13th. Sessions are 15 -20 minutes in length. The price of the session is $100 dollars ($50 for each additional sibling) and includes three digital files and a $25 dollar print credit. After you view your gallery of 5-7 images of your child, you may add additional items to your package and choose from a wide array of packages including digital files, prints, and boutique quality canvases and metal prints. The whole process is easy peasy and stress free.
