School Portrait Policy

All school portrait photos must be taken by Art Rich Photography to ensure that the photo conforms to the yearbook's style guide and deadlines.

Art Rich offers a variety of photo packages, including a "yearbook-only package" that is free (no sitting fee) when taken during any of the dates listed here at RHAM High School.

Students will have a presentation from Art Rich Photography during advisory in the Spring of Junior year.

Additional sittings are available at Art Rich Photography's studio for a sitting fee.  Please contact Art Rich Photography directly to book your session.

Dress Code:

We ask students to remember that this is an important photo and to dress appropriately.  Formal dress is not required, but dressing your best is encouraged!  

We have a minimal dress code for all students: shirts or dress is required, no hats (unless for religious reasons or if approved by the administration), sunglasses, or anything that alters the person’s face (i.e. drawing on the face, fake mustache, etc.).  No vulgarities or school-inappropriate imagery/words on the clothing. We ask students to be aware that strapless or thin/clear straps on shirts/dresses can make a person look like they aren’t wearing clothes, depending on how the photo is cropped. 

Suggestions for a good photo: 

• Dark, solid clothing looks best. 

• Avoid bronzers and highlighters.  Light powder on the face will help avoid excessive shine when photographed.

• All formal to semi-formal dress attire (such as a suit jacket, dress shirt, tie, a dress, or other dressy top) options are encouraged, but up to the individual student. 

• Glasses can be difficult to photograph because of the reflection/shine.   If possible, using a pair where the lens can be removed is helpful.

• Most importantly, wear what you feel confident and comfortable in!

Note: Students may choose to get additional senior photos from the photographer of their choice.  Only the yearbook photo must be taken with Art Rich Photography.
