Minnesota’s Best School Picture Day is Finally Here!

Modern, genuine, FUN school portraits for your picture day!

Smile to a Better School Picture Day!

  • What You Get

    A seamless photo day where we do all the work! We provide you announcements and emails to send out to your families. You get a private webpage just for your school families where they can access additional information about photo day. We’re also ECO friendly - no forms or collection envelopes.

  • What We Do

    We use a simple black background with natural light. We encourage each child to be themselves and capture their true personality and genuine smile. We give parents our contact information and answer any questions or communication from families regarding their photos, order, etc.

  • What They Say

    Schools say they LOVE how easy it is to work with us. Our communication and promptness to questions are top notch. Parents say they LOVE their child’s portraits. They are blown away with the fun, personality-filled portraits of their child. It’s a win-win for all! Your photo day experience shouldn’t be difficult. Let us do the work for you!

“Smile School Portraits was created as a way to bring amazing photos home for amazing kids.”
