Fine Art School Portraits - The village schoolhouse
School portrait day - Monday, March 31st, 2025
Gaby Cavalcanti Photography will be doing school portraits at The Village Schoolhouse on March 31st. Here are a few suggestions/tips on how to help prepare your child for the day, as well as, information on our school photography process.
before picture day
1. Make sure your child gets a good night's sleep. A well rested child is a happy child ;)
2. Feed your child a nutritious breakfast and remember to wash that yummy breakfast off their face!
3. Have your child help you select his/her clothes ahead of time, chances are, if your child is excited about what they are wearing, they will have more fun during portrait time. However, please keep in mind that:
The best colors for pictures are bright but try to avoid pure white and neon colors.
Please avoid large logos, hoodies, or sweatshirts.
Clothing that shows off lovely detail in the shoulder area looks great in photographs.
Make sure your child’s hairdo can be seen from the front.
Jewelry can be distracting, our advice is to avoid necklaces or thick bracelets.
on picture day
Gaby Cavalcanti Photography will begin taking photos shortly after morning drop off (at around 10am).
All children who attend school on portrait day will be photographed. Siblings who attend the school can also be photographed together. Please let your school admin/teacher know ahead of time.
We will be working individually with every child, for about 2-3 mins.
Class photo will be shot outdoors.
after picture day
Gaby Cavalcanti will select the best photographs of your child(dren)
Selected photographs will be posted to an online gallery about 14 days after school portrait day. You will receive an email with access to your child's gallery where you can complete your photo order online.
After photo galleries are online, FREE SHIPPING TO YOUR SCHOOL will be offered to orders placed within the first 7 days. After 7 days have elapsed, orders will be shipped to your home address, and shipping charges will apply. Galleries will remain online until September 30, 2025.
