Elijah // class of 2019

Eli –my littlest brother, my tallest brother– is graduating from Munising High School this weekend. He’s graduating at the top of his class, with countless athletic accomplishments. As big (short) sister, I am just so proud of those accomplishments, but even more so, of who the man of God he has grown to be. He...

Michaela // class of 2019

Four hundred miles north of here, on the shore of Lake Superior, sits the small town of Munising. When I mentioned Munising to people, they either mention the snow, or how beautiful it is. Both are quite true statements. It’s Michigan at its purest, and I couldn’t ask for a better place to go “home”...

Joel // class of 2015

Oh, Joel. I don’t think I could get through this post without mentioning that he’s my little brother — the fifth of seven kids in our family— so I might as well start off with that. Photographing him (much like my other siblings), soon entering adulthood, allows me to reflect on how he’s grown into...

Adam + Claire // engaged

Adam and Claire first met online, so they spoke on the phone before meeting in person. They both remember being smitten with the other’s voice. Their relationship clicked right away and has only gotten better with time. Adam says, “The gut feeling of knowing we’re right for each other has only been confirmed with time....

Cassie // senior

Cassie is a senior at Rogers City High School. She’s the second oldest of six girls, a farm girl, a talented athlete. Her personality is radiant… she truly is beautiful, inside and out. I so enjoyed her senior session and getting to know her a bit more.  God’s blessings on the next adventures in your...

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

 

What should my child wear?

Whatever is comfortable, but please avoid graphics or neon clothing. Because the backdrop is gray, I recommend staying away from gray as well. All individual shots of toddlers and preschoolers will be taken bust/shoulders up. Babies and sibling photos may include more of their bottom half.

 

How will I get my photos?

Families who have pre-registered have been emailed a secure password-protected online Shootproof gallery. Your director will also let you know when the gallery is ready to view. You’ll have your choice of 3-5 images, edited in classic color and black and white. Some children are more expressive and more comfortable in front of the camera and may have more photos in their gallery. The entire school will be in the same password protected gallery, divided by class and student. Sibling photos can be found in the older child's gallery. If you would prefer a private gallery, please contact the photographer.

 

Your prints can be easily ordered from the site, and digitals can be purchased and downloaded at your convenience. YOU get to choose which images you print and display and gift. You can even opt to send the link to family members, and they can order the size prints they prefer. All physical prints and products will be delivered to school within two weeks of the ordering deadline, or shipped to your home for an additional cost.

 

How do I receive a class composite?

Each print and digital order will receive a free class composite photo. These will be delivered to school at a later date this fall/winter.

 

When checking out, does "I'll pickup" mean it will be delivered to school?

That's exactly right! If you prefer your prints to be shipped to your home or a family member's home within the U.S., click "ship to me."

 

Will Abi Schmit Photography use my child's image online or print marketing?

I may contact you for permission to use your child's image on social media and in my marketing, but I will never share without your permission, and I never share a child's name or identifying information. Your safety is my priority!

 

My child was absent. When is Make-Up Day?

Abi will return to school on the morning of Tuesday, October 24. Registration is required for students who were previously photographed but would like retakes.

 

Can you retouch my child's photo?

All photos have been edited and color corrected, but if you need special retouching (for example, a scratch or snotty nose), you can add to cart in the "Retouch" menu. Digital images, if purchased, will be delivered electronically within 5 days.

 

How can I use my digital image?

If you purchase a digital image or full gallery, you will receive a Print Release and be able to print wherever you prefer to receive your prints from. You are free to use in Christmas cards, or share on social media. Giving photo credit to Abi Schmit Photography online is always appreciated.

 

I have more questions. How do I contact you?

Feel free to contact me at abischmit.photo@ gmail (dot) com if you have any further questions. Please do not contact me through my website contact form on the homepage unless you have interest in booking a session. Thank you!

 

Thank you for supporting a local small business, and for the privilege and honor of photographing your child and serving your school this year.
