Graduation Photoshoot

Sacramento's Favorite Graduation Photoshoot Experience

Cap, gown, and the confidence to match — mark the milestone in our Folsom studio or on location around town.

Graduation is the milestone your family will look back on for decades — the cap, the gown, the diploma, the relief and pride all at once. We make sure it's captured the way you'll want to remember it.

Choose a clean, classic studio session, or add an on-location shoot around Folsom for a more cinematic feel. Bring your cap and gown plus an outfit that feels like you, along with any cords, sashes, or keepsakes worth including. We guide the posing and expression so you look confident and completely yourself.

Pomp, circumstance, and a portrait you'll keep

The Smile package is a 45-minute in-studio session — clean, classic, and the most popular choice, with one set and two outfit changes for $99. The Signature package adds a second on-location session around Folsom for a more editorial look (booked separately by phone after your studio shoot) for $349 total.

We have adult black and navy blue cap-and-gown sets in the studio, so if your school uses those colors you don't even need to bring your own. Bring anything you'd like to incorporate — cords, sashes, the diploma, a childhood memento — and we'll guide you through flattering, confident posing. Family is welcome in the frame for the group shots that make this milestone feel complete.

  • Studio or on locationA clean studio look with the Smile package, or add an on-location shoot around Folsom with Signature.
  • Cap & gown providedAdult black and navy cap-and-gown sets are in studio — bring your own only if your school uses other colors.
  • Bring your keepsakesCords, sashes, the diploma, childhood mementos — anything that makes the portrait yours.
  • Family welcomeParents, grandparents, and siblings are welcome for the group shots.

Preparing for your visit

Bring your outfits along with any cords, sashes, and keepsakes you'd like in the frame. We keep black and navy cap and gown on hand if you'd like to use ours.

Graduation Photoshoot FAQ

Do you provide caps and gowns?

We have adult black and navy blue cap-and-gown sets in the studio. If your school uses a different color (gold, red, white, and so on), please bring your own.

What's the difference between the Smile and Signature packages?

Smile ($99) is a 45-minute in-studio session with one set and two outfit changes. Signature ($349) adds a second on-location session around Folsom for a more editorial look, with 2–3 outfit changes. The on-location half is booked separately by phone after your studio session.

How does the Signature on-location session work?

You book the studio session online, then call or text the studio to schedule the on-location half. The two sessions can be on different days, and we'll help you pick a Folsom-area setting.

Can family be in the photos?

Absolutely — many graduation sessions include parents, grandparents, and siblings in the group shots. This is a milestone the whole family celebrates.

What should I bring?

Your cap and gown (if your school's colors aren't black or navy), an outfit that feels like you, and any cords, sashes, the diploma, or keepsakes you'd like in the photos.

Is this for any level of graduate?

Yes — from preschool and kindergarten promotions to high school and college commencements. We celebrate every level of hard work.
