Fall Pictures

Dear Parent:

St. John Photography will be visiting your school to take Color photographs of your children.

Frequently, candid shots produce excellent results in comparison to studio portraits.  Individuals are having fun – doing what they normally do – so they appear natural and relaxed.  Dress your child as you normally would, formal clothing may inhibit his or her activities.

If rain is forecast, please assume that any showers will be brief and pictures will be taken as usual.  If the shoot is rescheduled, please bear with us – pictures taken outside are much nicer than ones in front of artificial backgrounds.

There are no up-front fees or obligations to purchase any of the prints.  Proofs will be available online for you to view the week after pictures are taken.

St. John Photography has photographed children at many schools in the Charlotte area; and we know you will be pleased with the truly unique images they are able to capture.  Please call St. John Photography directly with any questions you may have:  704-889-7800.

Schedule:
September 20: Little, Mullis, Moldenhauer, Angle, Hoffman, Brynildsen, Cheuvront, Pazun
Conner, Jaynes, McEntire, Hamilton, Gioeli

September 21:  Beni, Perry, Russell, Martin, Pagan, Wigley
