Recess Portraits
The Recess Rundown
Recess Portraits creates school portraits that feel natural, are beautifully lit, and capture a moment families will love looking back on. These are school photos you’ll actually want to frame.
Our approach to Photo Day is calm, fun, and stress-free for students, teachers, and families. We specialize in preschool photography and early education portraits, with a fully digital, paper-free system that makes everything easy from start to finish.
Natural smiles, not stiff poses
We spend a little extra time with each child to help them feel comfortable, even the shy ones. No forced grins, just honest expressions and relaxed energy.Timeless portraits, expert lighting
We use professional studio lighting and clean backdrops to create soft, classic school photos — no gimmicks or distracting props.Smooth process, happy schools
We coordinate closely with each school to minimize disruption and keep the day running smoothly. Students and staff walk away smiling.Easy for families
There are no prepayments. Galleries are delivered within two weeks, and families purchase only the photos they love. We also offer free digital backgrounds and simple online ordering.
