- No full body, minimal props.
- Plain backgrounds. (indoor or outdoor is fine, but the background should be non-distinct)
COLOR photos, please. No black and white.
- Senior Portraits are due Friday, October 17. This date is our guarantee that the photo you want will be in the yearbook. Senior Portraits are due Friday, October 17.
- Please read "Portrait specs" (see left) so that you know what we are requiring for your portrait. Senior Portraits are due Friday, October 17.
- If your photographer gives you a photo to deliver to us, drop your photo off in the main office. Place it in an envelope with your name written neatly on the envelope. Do NOT write on the back of the picture.
- Many photographers will send us the portrait themselves. Senior Portraits are due Friday, October 17.
- Students whose pictures we have not received by the due date will be notified in November via a note or, in some cases, a phone call. Please do not ask us to call you to confirm receipt. There are just too many people.
- We will put a photo of each senior possible in the yearbook. If we do not receive a portrait from you, we will use the Dorian picture (ID card) if available. If not available, we will be taking a picture of you ourselves.
- Senior Portraits are due Friday, October 17. Meanwhile, if you are having your senior portrait done, bring one in to the main office. Maybe it won't be too late. Again, there are no guarantees, but we will do the best we can and still meet our deadline at the same time.
