  • Why did your studio chose my yearbook selection without informing me?
  • Majority of schools we work with have a deadline of October 1st. At the time of your sitting your sitting we are required to provide you with this information. If you do not send us a selection by October 1st, then the schools require us to choose one for you. However, we do not randomly pick these prints, we try to pick your very best expression.

  • I'm not happy with my senior's proofs. Can they be retaken and is there a fee?
  • Yes. There is a $20 retake fee. If the photography has a malfunction there is no charge.

  • Why am I paying more for the retake than the initial sitting fee?
  • Your original sitting is subsidized by a Larry Allen Studios agreement with your school. The actual cost to produce your senior proof is over $30, however a re-sitting is granted at a discounted price ($20).

  • I'm not happy with ALL of my seniors proofs. Although the quality and poses are exceptional, I am still not satisfied. Your brochure says "Satisfaction Guaranteed", do I have to pay the retake fee?
  • Satisfaction Guaranteed means just that. Each senior is treated as an individual situation and our trained photographers are there to help you and guarantee your satisfaction.

  • How long will my porttrait session take?
  • Aproximately on hour.

  • How many different backgrounds will I be photographed with?
  • During summer, July and August, you will be photographed on three different backgrounds. Then sessions will be limited to only three.

  • Do I need to pay my sitting fee at the time of my portrait sitting?
  • Yes.

  • How many changes of clothes should I bring?
  • Your standard portrait sitting allows for one casual set of clothes. This does not include your formal attire for the yearbook pose or the cap and gown provided by the studio. You may purchase additional proofs (change of clothes) for an additional $15.00 per change.

  • Should I worry about blemishes before portrait day?
  • No general retouching is included that will take care of most facial imperfections. However, it does not include the removal of moles, scars, hair, earrings, or necklaces. These must be corrected through digital retouching and will accrue additional charges.

  • What is the portrait cut off time to guarantee portraits before the winter break?
  • Although the exact date changes from year to year, generally it is approximately Nov. 15.

  • How long will my Senior Portraits take to produce?
  • Approximately five to six weeks. Each senior is handled as an individual custom order.

  • How long do I have to order my senior portraits?
  • We keep the negatives on file through the end of the calendar year of your graduation.

  • May I reorder from the same proofs I already have ordered from?
  • Absolutely, this can be done with a phone call and credit card. Senior portrait Reorder form.(hyperlink)

  • Can I make payments on my portraits?
  • Sorry, we keep your negatives approximately six months after graduation. When you get your order together, please send it in all at one time.

  • May I make substitutions within packages?
  • Yes, please refer to your order form or click here for instructions on how to substitute.

  • May I be photographed with a friend?
  • Sure, but it will take up one of your individual poses.

  • Should I return my selection for the yearbook even if I cannot make an order now?
  • Yes, select your yearbook photo now. You may order at any time.

  • May I come to the studio for my appointment?
  • Yes, but our studio is not scheduled for appointments until after school starts.

  • Can I bring a prop to be photographed with?
  • Absolutely, we encourage anything that will bring out your personality. (Please remember, pets are not allowed inside the school building.)
