Quality of Images
In order for yearbooks to win coveted prizes, both the Senior & Underclass Sections must have excellent quality photos with backgrounds, lighting and poses being consistent. HJMiami Photo not only meets but exceeds the industry standards set by academia and publishers. Our sports and event coverage is second to none in the industry. Sample photos in all categories of yearbook photography (sports, events, seniors, superlatives, teams, clubs and more) are attached at the end of this document.
Yearbook Images
Images of all students and staff will be provided for the yearbook in a Publisher File. Publisher Files are formatted for PSPA industry standards for publication.
Images for Herff Jones Yearbooks will be automatically loaded into the yearbook for the participating school.
Candid Photo & Online Coverage
HJMiami Photo will not only cover events with experienced photographers but also provide training sessions for your yearbook student photographers. You will receive email verifications of the event coverage when scheduled, along with a reminder email the day prior to the event, verifying again our overage and checking for updates on times and cancellations.

Marketing for the Yearbook Staff
Win, Win for everyone! Since the underclass photos are a fund raiser for the yearbook, it behooves us and the staff to sell as much as possible. Traditionally, the hardest group to sell, HJMiami Photo will assist with marketing displays and presentations to the underclass to buy the pictures and sell yearbooks. We also offer fund-raisers for special pictures days such as personality pictures, Valentines and other holiday fun filled events.

HJMiami Photo’s experienced personnel offer workshops on camera usage, photography tips and even leadership! We bring the cameras, the presenters, the handouts and the positive attitudes with us! From basic photo workshops, to more advanced classes; HJMiami Photo has a program that will fit your needs. Don’t choose from a set program, let us build the class your staff needs!
We offer camera loaners to both the staff and advisor. We will provide professional training to the yearbook staff on use of camera equipment and yearbook photography composition.
