The most requested change from last year is for parents to have the ability to combine orders of multiple students in one shopping cart. That was possible but only if they were all in the same school. Many families have students in two or even three schools.
It is now possible (thanks to our software partner) to order for all your students in one cart regardless of which school they attend. Yay!!! The only problem you will have now is waiting for me to photograph the last school before you place your order.
Important Dates:
1. Orders placed in September and October can be shipped directly to home or saved for batch printing. Batches will be printed around three weeks after picture day and delivered to the school.
2. The final batch ordering deadline is for all schools and based on our final anticipated delivery date before Thanksgiving (if all goes well with print labs and shipping companies).
The Wildcard:
All orders placed during the fall picture season will be sent to the print lab and then delivered to schools within "a few" weeks. I will be making multiple deliveries, but I ask that you please be patient. Schools distribute picture envelopes to students at their convenience.
The final deadline for ordering is Nov 5th. Final delivery will be the week of Nov 13th, in time for parent/teacher conferences. Orders placed on Nov 6th and later will automatically ship to home for $6.45 per order.
Ordering deadlines & Photo Delivery
Hello!
I am Amy, your school photographer. I am delighted to work with your students again this year, even if only for a minute.
Some students have mastered the "yes" smile, but most students need a two-second warm-up. That is about how long it takes to engage a student by name, lock eyes and smile together. By the end of the day, my cheeks are sore. Then I go to my computer to review images and catch myself smiling back all over again. What a blessing this career is!
A little bit about me...
I meant to finish college and be a high school history teacher, but a family medical situation changed my course. I then pursued ministry school and media production where I met my husband. He was the sound and video guy, and I was the photographer and newsletter manager. Nearly 20 years later, we have four brilliant children that we homeschool. We spent a couple years at Sandpoint Christian School where I also taught K-8th PE. That's where I learned to project my voice and inspire my students by doing things with them.
"School Photographer" is the best of both worlds! I am constantly pushing my technical skills while also experiencing the joy of being in school. I still want to be a teacher when I grow up, so don't be surprised when I start teaching photography. It's on my bucket list in the near future!
