Hi Treehouse Families,

Photo day is just around the corner!

My name is Janelle, and I’m a lifestyle photographer (and mom!) here in Charlestown. I am thrilled to be creating fine art portraits of your children this year. My goal is to make photo day simple for the school and a joyful experience for families, while providing portraits that are timeless and authentic.

What is fine art school photography?

Fine Art School Portraits are a modern approach to school photography. Instead of stiff poses, props, or distracting backgrounds, children are photographed against a clean backdrop with natural expressions. We encourage kids to be themselves, so portraits feel genuine and reflect their real personality.

What to expect on picture day:

Each class will come to the portrait area together. Every child will spend about one minute with me while I capture several natural expressions. The process is quick and comfortable, designed to make kids feel at ease and keep the day moving smoothly.

What should my child wear?

Solid colors photograph best. Please avoid large logos, busy patterns, or neon colors as they can distract from your child’s portrait. Since most photos are taken from the shoulders up, the top half of your child’s outfit is the most important, but I may take full body photos, so be mindful of shoes etc.

When will you see photos?

Within three weeks, you’ll receive a link with your child’s photos in both color and black and white. You’ll have 14 days to select which photos you’d like printed.

How does ordering work?

Families can order directly from the online gallery. Prints, digital files, and other products are available à la carte. There are no pre-purchased packages, so you only buy what you truly love.

The gallery will remain open for 14 days after the link is shared. Please make sure all orders are placed before the deadline.

When will I receive my prints?

Digital files are delivered instantly via email as soon as you complete your purchase. Print orders will be delivered directly to the school within three weeks of the gallery closing and sent home with students.

Pricing and Prints

All products are printed by a professional photography lab for accurate colors and long-lasting quality.
