your school on….

Grades [Insert Grades]: [Insert Date]

Hello [School Name] Families,

Photo day is just around the corner! My name is Erin, and I am the school portrait photographer for Erin E Gallagher Photography. I am thrilled to be creating fine art portraits of your children this year.

My goal is to make photo day simple for the school and a joyful experience for families, while providing portraits that are timeless and authentic.

What is a Fine Art School Portrait?

Fine Art School Portraits are a modern approach to school photography. Instead of stiff poses, props, or distracting backgrounds, children are photographed against a clean backdrop with natural expressions. We encourage kids to be themselves, so portraits feel genuine and reflect their real personality.

What to Expect on Photo Day

Each class will come to the portrait area together. Every child will spend about one minute with me while I capture several natural expressions. The process is quick and comfortable, designed to make kids feel at ease and keep the day moving smoothly.

What Should My Child Wear?

Solid colors photograph best.

Please avoid large logos, busy patterns, or neon colors as they can distract from your child’s portrait.

Since all photos are taken from the shoulders up, the top half of your child’s outfit is the most important.

How Will I View My Child’s Images?

Within three weeks of photo day, you will receive an email with a link to the school’s gallery. Each child will have their own album with multiple images in both color and black and white.
For added privacy, you can request your child’s gallery be password-protected by emailing me before photo day at erinegallagherphoto@yahoo.com

How Does Ordering Work?

Families can order directly from the online gallery.
Prints, digital files, and other products are available à la carte.
There are no pre-purchased packages, so you only buy what you truly love.
The gallery will remain open for 15 days. Please make sure all orders are placed before the deadline.

When Will I Receive My Portraits?

Digital files are delivered instantly via email as soon as you complete your purchase.
Print orders will be delivered directly to the school within three weeks of the gallery closing and sent home with students.
