All proofs will be posted on Chadwick Photography’s website www.chadwickphoto.com. Pictures must be made with Chadwick Photography for the yearbook. Having all seniors’ pictures made by one photographer insures the same lighting background, which is essential for yearbook purposes. There will be cap & gown photos taken of each senior. Chadwick Photography will provide a cap and gown for the pictures. Portraits are not full length.
Girls should wear a nice blouse or a dressy top (tops must cover all undergarments).
Boys should wear a starched dress shirt and a tie (a suit or sports coat if possible).
Things to remember: Don’t forget to bring your senior ring and letterman jacket (photos will be taken with each for those who bring them), Chadwick Photography will have extra ties available, please only sign up for an appointment time you are able to make. Chadwick Photography will be back at Friendswood High School for retakes on September 14-15 (4-8pm), October 4-5 (4-8pm), November 9-10 (4-8pm). You may retake as many times as you would like. If you want your student’s picture in the yearbook, Chadwick Photography must take it. You may select which picture (proof number required) and turn into Mrs. Hartzell (room 419) by December 10, 2011. No exceptions can be made.
Chadwick Photography will also be taking Fall Sports Pictures (dates and times will be given to each team). |
