Yearbook photos, no photographer
A real frame from this shoot.
Yearbook photos are forever, and yours was taken on the morning you overslept. Yearbook photos from the Studio deliver the traditional portrait — a mottled gray backdrop, soft even light, a genuine smile — at the 3:4 crop yearbook templates use, for students, faculty and the alumni page.
You want the portrait that will look fine in twenty years, made from a selfie taken today. One run turns the photo you have into yearbook photos that meet the format, ready to print at a kiosk or upload to a form. Upscale yearbook photos once if a form asks for a larger file, and keep the original photo in case a different format is needed later.
What this session solves
- The retake day clashes with an exam
- Faculty pages and alumni directories keep asking for a new file
- The graduation yearbook wants a print-quality portrait
- You want a photo you will not wince at in twenty years

What resolution does a printed yearbook need?
Shoot at Pro and upscale the result to 8 megapixels; that covers a full-page portrait at 300 dpi. Keep the file on your contact sheet for the alumni page later.
Can graduating students add a cap and gown?
Yes. Use the Graduation preset instead, or describe the gown in the Outfit field of this shoot to keep the yearbook backdrop.
Can I make yearbook photos for a child?
Yes, for your own child or one in your care. Photograph them facing the camera with eyes open and a neutral expression; infant rules differ by country, so check them as well.
