Senior Portrait Information

Echoes 2026   Hamburg High School

** We strongly suggest you use Upstate Images for your senior portrait needs. They have very affordable packages and it streamlines the portrait submission process. 

** A Hamburg schools email must be used to submit a portrait. 

** The following specifications are required of senior portraits to be printed in the 2026 yearbook. Every year there are Hamburg Seniors who submit portraits that do not meet specifications and their portraits are rejected for publication. Seniors, it is your responsibility to make sure your portraits adhere to these specifications.

**Students must submit their senior portraits to Mrs. Winters (via Google form: here)  by FRIDAY, OCTOBER 24, 2025. It is the student’s responsibility to be sure an appropriate photo is submitted for publication. It is not the responsibility of the studio to deliver these photos to Echoes. 

IF WE DO NOT RECEIVE PORTRAIT PHOTO, we will use the photo taken in Phys. Ed. during the first week of school.
