Lifetouch Portraights will be creating our new pictorial directory which will be introduced in conjunction with our 50th Anniversary. We’ve chosen three sets of dates for having pictures taken: In November the week before Thanksgiving, for those who may have family members home from college, or who might want to send pictorial Christmas cards.
The second shoot date is during the 2nd week of December. Pictures will be available in time for Christmas gifts. And the final week for pictures is January 12-16th. We’re putting together a pictorial stroll down memory lane for Wedgwood, but the only way you can guarantee yourself a copy is to have your picture included in the directory.
You may schedule a sitting by clicking here. (note, you will only be able to schedule a sitting for the current month)
