Senior Portraits

Seniors from the 1956 yearbook. 

Grandma's photo collection won't be complete without a graduation photo. Ultimate Exposures are coming to campus to make taking them easy for you. Sign up for a free sitting for a photo for the yearbook. You can order copies of the photos later if you want. 

We will be conducting two senior portrait sittings during the 2012-2013 year. The fall sittings are: Tues 11/13, Wed 11/14, Thurs 11/15 and Fri 11/16. The spring sittings are Wed 2/20, Thurs 2/21 and Fri 2/22. Sign up for a sitting to be sure you get the time you want.

How much does a sitting cost?

The sitting is free for four poses. When signing up online you may be asked for a deposit that will be returned when you show up for your portrait. If you would like to purchase eight poses the sitting will cost $12 and if you would like to purchase twleve poses the sitting cost will be $17. You can find more information at Ultimate Exposures.

What should I wear?

A cap and gown will be provided at your sitting. For men, a shirt and tie are suggested as they will show above the collar of the gown. A t-shirt collar will be visible so t-shirts are not recommended. For women, either a collared shirt or lower-necked shirt are recommended. A collar will be visible. A lower-necked shirt will not. Jewelry is optional. 

Do I need an appointment?

An appointment is preferred. This helps with the flow of the day. However, walk-ins are accepted, the process will just take a little longer. 

How long will it take?

The time it takes varies on when you are taking your photo. During high traffic time slots such as around noon it will take longer.  The session can take anywhere from 15-45 minutes. It will take longer if you decide to order photos at the sitting. 

Where will the portraits be taken?

The February portrait session will be in Samuleson Pavilion by the Cooler. 

Where do the portraits go?

The cap and gown shot of your choice will be placed in the yearbook along with your name and major. Check out one of the pages from last year. You may also purchase prints for yourself. 

Do my portraits have to be cap and gown?

The first four shots do have to be cap and gown. However, you can purchase additional poses in business attire or with a diploma. 

How do I purchase photos? 

You can purchase photos through Ultimate Exposures.
