• Must be a formal, school appropriate headshot.
• Boy's Formal shot= jacket, tie, shoulders up photo, no hats
• Girl's Formal shot= drape/conservatively formal shoulder up photo
• Black and white photographs, as well as photographs with dark backgrounds
or extreme contrast will appear to be different from the photos in the rest of the
senior section---we will not be responsible for the way that your photograph
looks in the book if you choose to get your formal portrait taken with these
circumstances.
• Deadline for photos submission: Friday, September 28.
Make your appointments early (June & July). Keep in mind that proofs and final
prints take time to process!!!
Camera Box is our unofficial official school photographer: You pick your proof for
the yearbook, and it will be delivered DIRECTLY to us. (No need to email me or
confirm.) The sitting fee for Camera Box is $25, which includes the portrait
session and a photo for the yearbook. You are not required to purchase photos to
get your formal portrait in the yearbook. https://www.camerabox.com/patriots/
Note: If you call after August 1st to make an appointment, you are already on the
late side of scheduling. Camera Box will be offering “last chance” nights on
September 8th and 9th in the evening. (Photos will be scheduled either 5 minutes
or 10 minutes apart, depending on what “phase” we’re in at that time.)
Greg Starner, Nancy Zimmerman, and Fine Art also deliver portraits to us, and
like Camera Box, they help us by sharing their amazing photography with the
yearbook staff. You are not required to go these photographers, but doing so
guarantees delivery (yes, they know our deadlines) and ensures that your
photograph blends well within the senior section of the book. Doing so also
supports our community businesses who support our school.
SENIOR PORTRAIT DIGITAL SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS
Formal Head Shot
RGB Format
300 dpi (High Quality Image)
Approx. Image size 2 ½ “ x 3 ½”
Approx. Head-Chin measurement =
1 ¼”
Minimum Pixel size - 750 x 1050
Photos may be submitted on CD, DVD, USB drive or emailed to Mrs. Alison Gonce
@ [email protected] – if emailed, a confirmation email will be returned
to you that your picture has been received.
If you neglect to get your senior picture taken, we are NOT able to use your
“school photo” taken for your ID. These photos will not be used since they are
not available until after the deadline for the senior portrait section.
Finally, if we do not have a senior portrait by September 20th, we will call the
home # listed in PowerSchool to make sure that it hasn’t been missed. We truly
want everyone to be pictured in the book and will make every effort to ensure
that it happens.
If you feel that you cannot afford to get a senior portrait taken, please reach out
to us. We want every senior to be featured in the book. We cannot provide you
with photographs, but we can arrange for a portrait sitting that will allow us to
print a formal portrait in the yearbook.
Have a wonderful summer.
