Submission Process
We have an eShare address where you can upload your senior's portrait by November 21, 2023. Go to the link listed directly below or click HERE.

On Friday, December 8, look for a pdf file of all received senior portraits in the Senior Scoop newsletter. This is your opportunity to review your senior's photo and ensure it is correct. On December 11-15 (the week before winter break) we will post all of the received senior portraits on campus, as well, to check in-person. Any senior portrait that is not correct on the pdf or in person must be flagged by YOU by emailing our adviser, kate.gooding@camas.wednet.edu, by December 19.
LATE SUBMISSIONS received in November still have a small chance of being in the final print of the book, but there is no guarantee. Any submissions past November will not be in the book.
OTHER NOTES:
Do not cut the head/hairline at the top of the photo
Do not resize (or "blow up") a low-resolution image to meet the minimum size requirements. Pixelated images will be rejected.
Outdoor backgrounds can be used, but are not suggested unless used by a professional photographer.
Only head and shoulders will be in the yearbook photo (some cropping may occur).
There should be no special filters or graphics added to the photograph.
There should be no props in the photograph.
Avoid putting hands near the face (no leaning on fist, hand in hair, etc.). Acceptability of hands in photographs will be evaluated on a per-photo basis.
If hands are near the face, there should be no hand gestures. Photos with hand gestures will be rejected.
The CHS Yearbook reserves the right to refuse any photograph.
