Three Cameras Need Lots of Room

Plenty of elementary and middle schools have enrollments large enough to require three cameras. 

We love the gym if we can get it because the larger space allows us to organize the classes and move the students in and out of the photography location easier. 

It helps us stay on schedule, reduce the noise and keep teachers happy.

Don’t you wish every day was school picture day!
