Graduation Services

Island Photography has been providing high-quality graduation photo coverage for the College and High School markets for over 25 years.

Being certain you have the best team in place for this coverage provides immeasurable peace of mind.

Service and Integrity

Our school administrators trust us with their prized seniors each year without hesitation. This trust is based on years of good communication and reliability.

Photographing over 200,000 graduates annually, this is our principal market. Our 20+ years of success and growth in the commencement market speaks volumes about our commitment. We dedicate a tremendous amount of time to training our teams so they are prepared for every scenario. Island Photo continually incorporates new technology into this market to build more efficient ways of doing things. Our approach to each ceremony is distinct and tailored to that school, based on current discussions with the contact and our historical data.

Commencement Photography is precise and well-planned just as the ceremony itself. This service offers a twofold advantage for both the administrators and the graduates, as it preserves the decorum of the ceremony and provides consistently great photos quickly and affordably to your graduates and their families.

Touch-free Name Announcement or Reader Cards

We work closely with Marching Order and can arrange for this service to be at your event or provide reader cards for your ceremony.

Photography Poses

We photograph every graduate 2-3 times. Once as they cross the stage (candid) and then again as they exit (or enter) for a quick "portrait style" photo.

Green Screen

We provide green screen as an option for the portrait style photo which offers your graduates a selection of unique school-oriented backgrounds.
