The photographers who work with Slow Road Photo are some of the most gifted and gentle spirited artists in the Twin Cities. Most own their own photography businesses and are contracted with us to create a memorable Picture Day experience and images that parents will delight your parents.

All of our team members are Slow Road Certified, which means that they have been extensively trained in how to provide a warm, upbeat, and joyful Picture Day experience from start to finish.

Our photographers will spend less than one minute with each student, but they will spend every second of their time together capturing images and making your student feel like a celebrity. We keep the energy high and the stress level low for the kiddos we pull out all the stops to make sure they feel not only comfortable, but also seen and affirmed. And because we work efficiently, we are able to capture all the authentic expressions a parent could want in that short amount of time in order to honor your schedule!

We are a local business created by women on a mission to honor students and faculty/staff well by giving them an incredibly joyful Picture Day. Everything we do is built around our priority to provide you with customized, attentive service as well as artistic images that families will treasure. Because of that, we are able to bring out as many photographers as you need and work within your scheduling requirements to make sure the day serves you well!

Yes! We are happy to provide custom designed ID badges for your staff and students upon request, as well as sticker sheets, online directories, printed class photos and digital images for internal use.

We offer Picture Day at no cost to the schools we serve. In fact, we return 10% of all Picture Day sales back to your school! We are honored that you would choose to partner with us- we know what a significant thing it is that you would welcome us into your building.

We work with an independent yearbook company offers a simple and easy to use online interface. Our services are very complimentary and work wonderfully together. Slow Road Photo would provide you with all the portraits populated right into the yearbook, and then your yearbook advisor or parent volunteer would add the candid photos or any other images you would want to include using a very easy to navigate online platform. There are a number of other yearbook companies that offer a similar service, and we would be happy to help get you acquainted with our favorites.

This is a huge yes! We love to serve you throughout the year to capture events and celebrations that happen in the building! We offer complimentary photography services for these events, and are happy to make the photos available for parents as well.

One thing that is unique to Slow Road Photo is that we provide online galleries for parents to view before placing their order, so parents are only purchasing what they absolutely love with no need to prepay and order before Picture Day. And since we capture multiple poses for each student, there are plenty of options in their galleries to choose from!

Absolutely! This is a service we offer to schools at no cost. We can either build time for a group photo into the Picture Day schedule, or we are happy to offer a composite class photo with individual students placed on a sheet with their classmates and teacher.

Whichever way you decide to go, we will provide you with the digital files for those images and make them available for families inside their child’s gallery.

Yes! We will provide your school with a “master gallery” containing one image for each student and staff member in the appropriate sizes for use in your internal student management database as well as for your yearbook. (And like all the things we love to give our schools, this is provided at no cost to you!)
