So here's the drill...please take note of the following:

Headshots on a Neutral Backdrop

Fall Portraits are headshots for students and staff on a grey backdrop! The look is clean and modern, and the focus is on the student and not the background.

Students will be photographed in school-appropriate attire. No hats, please! Please make sure you are groomed and camera ready; we'll take care of the rest!!

Questions? Contact Us

Hair & Grooming

No hats, please! We make it a point to help fine-tune hair (smoothing fly-aways, fighting the effects of humidity) before taking your picture, so please bring any hair grooming implements you might need for final touches before you're in front of our camera.

We suggest wearing hair down for long hair, as ponytails and messy buns do not photograph, and loose hair tends to get more messy throughout the day. And don't forget to brush your teeth!

Choose Your Yearbook Photo!

About 3 - 4 weeks after Picture Day, your Fall Portraits will be uploaded to our website in a password-protected gallery for viewing and ordering. This is also where you get to choose your Yearbook photo. If you do not choose your photo by the date indicated on the emails, one will be chosen for you.

Passcodes and proofing information will be sent through the school, but our Newsletter Subscribers will get notified first!

Make Ups and Retakes

At Lot Five Studios, your satisfaction is always our goal. If you missed your picture day, or you'd like to get a retake for any reason, please come back on Retake Day--DATE TO BE DETERMINED.

Please send us a retake request by clicking the button below. This will ensure that you will get pulled from class, and it will also let us know how we can do better and improve your Yearbook photo.

Retake Please

Online Proofing & Ordering

PICK YOUR YEARBOOK POSE! Even if you don't order, please tell us which photo you prefer to go in your yearbook.

You are a Star

You are a Star. We'd love to use your photo!

At Lot Five Studios, we always look for smiling students to use as models. If you are interested in allowing your school photo to serve as one of the faces for our school-specific marketing pieces, please make sure to read the info at the end of your online order before checkout.

If you are under 18, please ask your parents. If you do not wish for your image to be used, please read the info and let us know. Don't worry; we never use any identifying information about students--just your awesome image.

How We Work

Everything You Need to Know About Fall Portraits

1. We photographed all students, faculty, and staff on Picture Day--October 25-October 26.

2. Give us about 2-4 weeks to process the images and get them ready for viewing.

3. When the images are uploaded and ready to go, we will send information to the school telling students and parents how to access their student galleries, including passcodes and ordering instructions. If you are a newsletter subscriber, you get to know before everyone else does (perks, yay!).

4. Log in and select your Yearbook photos! Or request a retake if you are unsatisfied with your image--Retake day is TO BE DETERMINED.

5. Place an order by the deadline date, please.

6. If you missed the ordering deadline, don't worry--your images will still be available for purchase; however, you will have to pay a shipping fee, and your order will be sent directly to you.
