Preparing for Picture Day
At Here We Grow, we LOVE creating honest and natural portraits of your children that you will adore. We prioritize a fun and gentle experience for the children, and we always have a great time!
THE DAY BEFORE
We provide stickers to the school to send home with the children the day before Picture Day. These stickers serve as a reminder to you of Picture Day, but they also help get children excited! Just let your child know they are going to have a fun time with the photographer and her friend, the monkey. No need to tell them to smile or say cheese - we take care of getting those natural expressions and smiles!
CLOTHING
Unless your child will be wearing a uniform for their portrait, you can choose ALMOST ANY CLOTHING you like for your child but please avoid:
Neon colours
Hoodies and sweats
Character and Logo clothing (because they distract from beautiful faces!)
Stained, torn, wrinkled, pilled or ill-fitting clothing
Shoes will not show in Individual Portraits (unless your child cannot stand up on their own), but they might show in Sibling-Together Portraits and Group-Class Portraits.
If your child cannot stand up on their own, please ensure bloomers are worn under dresses, over top of tights.
Please ensure eyeglasses are clean, and please remove tattoos.
If your child will be wearing a UNIFORM, please ensure they have their newest, best pieces on for Picture Day. Please clean and press a couple of days beforehand and save for the day.
