Group & Individual Portraits

All classes will take a group portrait. Parents/Guardians wanting to order individual portraits in costume will need to make an AdvancePay Credit Purchase. If you are not needing or wanting an individuals of your child, then you will not need to make an AdvancePay credit purchase.

About AdvancePay Credit

This credit insures that the photographer captures and edits an individual portrait of your child and it is added to your gallery. All credit purchased is directly applied to your PhotoDay account. It is like a gift card, any credit purchased will be applied towards prints, packages, or digital download purchases of your choosing. You will need $10 credit per class in which you would like an individual posed portrait taken of your child. Example: if you are in two classes and would like an individual poses in each class, then you would purchase $20 AdvancePay Credit. When your gallery is ready, this credit will be applied towards your purchase at checkout.
