What to Expect
Modern school photos where students are truly themselves – that is our approach. As school photographer in Bochum and NRW we come with our mobile studio directly to your school: whether primary school, grammar school, junior high, secondary or comprehensive school in the Ruhr area. We photograph in an age-appropriate way – playful and relaxed with younger children, modern and individual with graduating classes. We love using the schoolyard and outdoor area of your school, because that is where the most natural school portraits are taken. For the school this means: no organisational effort, no collecting envelopes, no stress. Parents select and order their favourite photos conveniently through our GDPR-compliant online portal – each family with their own access code, only for their own child's photos. School ID photos are included – as a print to take away or digital.

Process
Together we agree on a smooth schedule that disrupts lessons as little as possible. On photo day we arrive with our mobile studio at your school – we handle setup and takedown ourselves, teachers need to assist very little. Every student is photographed individually, then we take class photos – in the schoolyard or inside, depending on weather and preference. For graduation photos we take extra time for individual portraits and creative group shots. After photo day all parents receive a personal code for the online shop. Orders are placed conveniently from home, printing happens only after ordering.
Duration: by arrangement
The packages for parents at a glance
After the school photo day, parents choose from four packages. The Mini package for 14.90 € includes one individual photo and one class photo as prints, plus the school ID photo digitally. For all packages: there is no obligation to buy, and every family orders voluntarily. The most popular is Classic for 24.90 €: two individual photo sizes, a class photo and an additional digital image. If you would like more, book the Plus package for 39.90 € with three individual photo formats and two digital images. For families who want everything digital there is the Digital package for 59.90 € with all individual portraits and the class photo as a download – available to reorder for one year.
On the road in the Ruhr area and all of NRW
As school photographers we work not only in Bochum but across the whole Ruhr area and beyond in NRW – including Dortmund, Essen, Duisburg, Herne, Gelsenkirchen, Recklinghausen, Bottrop, Oberhausen, Mülheim, Witten and Düsseldorf. In the core Ruhr area there are no travel costs for your school. If your school is outside it, just talk to us – together we will find a solution for the travel.
Order photos even after the photo day
The online portal for parents stays active even after the actual delivery date to the school. For up to a year, pictures can still be reordered, for example if grandparents spontaneously want a class photo too. Each family keeps its own access code and sees only the photos of its own child – the portal is built in line with the GDPR, and printing only happens after the order. There is no extra work for the school, because the entire process runs through the parent portal.
