PROCESS:
During the days/hours that the Portrait Lab is open, students can come on a first-come, first-serve basis. If the line is long, we will cut it off 15 minutes prior to the end time, and you can come back to another session. Each session should take 2 minutes. Student headshots are done with a professional background (1 option only), lighting, and equipment. You will have a chance to see your photo on the computer before you leave.

Once approved, the photographer sends an email to your provided address via WeTransfer. You will have three (3) days to download your photo from WeTransfer.
