Picture day just got fun! I am so excited to offer modern school portraits to schools and preschools! I provide a fun and relaxing atmosphere for picture day that will be a great experience for the students. I might capture a silly giggle or a thoughtful smile, but whatever your child does in front of the camera will be a precious memory.

Parents will enjoy online ordering and can have the option to ship the prints directly to your home and purchase high resolution digital downloads directly from the gallery. These individual portraits are tailored to each child to capture who they really are.I give families a special, one-of-a-kind experience when they choose Fran Dickenson Modern Portraits to capture their school portraits on picture day.

My service is personal and professional, but with a friendly touch. Unlike big school portrait companies, I pick just a handful of schools to work with each year. That way, I can really focus on delivering top-notch customer service and creating beautiful, artistic images that are tailored to each child.

My goal? To capture the real spirit of each child in front of the camera. No fake smiles, no awkward poses – just the authentic child as they are on that day. The result? Timeless portraits that are simple and adorable.

I make sure the whole experience is light-hearted and fun for your little ones. Creating an atmosphere where kids can relax and be themselves is my pride and joy. So, expect genuine smiles and natural moments in every photo!
