School Picture Day was Thursday, September 5th, 2024

Did your little one miss picture day? No worries!

Make-Up Pictures will be done on Thursday, October 24th, 2024.

Hello School Families! Photo day is fast approaching!

Allow me to introduce myself - I'm Heather, your school photographer. I am truly thrilled for the chance to create beautiful fine art school portraits for your school. It is my sincere goal to deliver an enhanced and boutique photography experience to each and every school family who have entrusted me with capturing their children's special moments.

No money is due on picture day.

You only pay for pictures after an online gallery release. There, you will be able to view your child’s photos and decide if you want to buy prints, canvas, or digitals. Once you are in the gallery, you will find your child’s album by last name. Each child’s gallery will be password protected for privacy, using your child’s DOB.

Stay tuned to this page, as a direct link to your school’s gallery will be posted on this page.

I would be HONORED if you allowed me to use your little one’s image to advertise my work on my website, blog, and marketing materials! Please know, you have absolutely NO OBLIGATION to do so. However, if you’re ok with it, your child’s image may be used on my website, like the example next to this text.

Do you have a question? No problem! Send me an email and I’ll answer you back ASAP!

For picture day questions, please ask your photographer, not the school. This reduces the burden on school staff.

What is a Fine Art School Portrait?

My goal is to provide a personal, professional, and boutique photo experience for students and families of schools who choose Heather Wheaton Photography for their school photos.

Fine Art School Portraits are quite different from what we all remember school pictures used to look like. I will capture your child’s authentic personality in a way that doesn’t feel like a forced smile. No silly props or backgrounds. Just beautiful images you will love for years to come. Each kiddo receives 2-5 images in their gallery, in BOTH color and black & white!

What should my child wear?

Unless your student wears a school uniform, please select a solid color top for your child. Avoid tops with graphics, words, neon, or geometrical patterns. Those types of clothing tend to do weird things when captured with a camera. A nice dress shirt, blouse, or even a solid color tee is perfect. Photos will be taken from the shoulder up. If your child’s school requires a uniform, this makes picture day easy on you! School uniforms photograph well and allow the focus to be on your student.

How does ordering work?

Within two weeks of picture day, you will be sent a link to an online gallery. You will receive 2-5 images, in both color AND black and white. You will be able to select a single pose for a package of prints, and different poses for a la carte prints. I also offer stretched canvas and options to receive digital downloads of your images.

Stay tuned to THIS PAGE to receive UPDATES when galleries are ready to be viewed! I will post updates to this page FIRST, then I will contact your child’s school to give them the official updates about pictures.

A link to the gallery site will be posted here, so consider bookmarking this page in your browser.

Thank you so much for the opportunity to capture your sweet child’s growth during their school years. I consider it an honor and a privilege to do so!
