Photo Day Tips
Tips for taking the best photos
Before photo day
- If you suspect you’ll need a haircut before photo day, aim to have it done a week ahead of time.
- Check to make sure your uniform or clothing for photo day is clean and wrinkle free.
- Practice your smile and posture in front of a mirror before photo day.
On your photo day
- Wear bright and solid colours for school portraits because it emphasizes your face.
- Wearing long sleeves allows the face to stand out more as well.
- You might want to bring a comb to make sure your hair is perfect right before your picture.
- If you normally wear glasses, feel free to wear them for your photos. Our photographers are trained to reduce glare on the lens.
- Remember to relax and have fun – our photographers are known to be fun and awesome people.
High school grad photos
- We recommend wearing a white collared shirt for a nice contrast against the dark gown.
- Pair a buttoned up collar with a tie in a colour that works with the gown; we can provide a tie if needed.
- Feel free to bring a casual outfit and props that emphasize your personality for optional casual shots.

Junior Milestone and Kindergarten Celebration photos
- Depending on the school, milestone and celebration photos may be taken with a graduation gown or in casual clothes.
- A collared shirt pairs nicely with the graduation gown. Our photographers will have some on hand in case your child doesn’t own one.
- All props will be provided by Edge on the day of the shoot.
