Barksdale, the pioneer of school photography, celebrates 101st anniversary Mr. S.P. Barksdale, the founding father of the school picture industry, was employed by the WilsonMagazineCompany in theearly1900s. In1922, hisgood friendwas the superintendent of the Philadelphia Public School System. As the district was building its student files, Barksdale was asked to provide photos of each student to be attached to the records. He agreed, as long as he could also sell the photos to the parents to help pay for the service. Other school districts heard of the idea and asked Barksdale for photos of their students. The school picture industry was born. S.P. Barksdale even built the first school picture camera. Today, Barksdale – under the leadership of S.P.’s great grandchildren – provides school picture services to more than 2,000 schools across the country from their headquarters in the suburbs of Philadelphia.

SENIOR PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY Students will receive color proofs for review and selection, which will include: • Eight poses in formal wear for girls and boys against a neutral background.

• Eight poses in cap and gown on a new neutral background. • Eight casual poses against a variety of available backgrounds. There will be no sitting fee for basic senior portrait yearbook poses, and all senior portraits will undergo basic retouching at no charge. The Barksdale Group will establish a direct link to our scheduling website for the school to share with all senior parents. Parents can schedule their portrait sitting time from a range of available time slots. Senior proof booklets will be sent to the school or student homes. Make-up dates and re-sitting dates at the High School will be coordinated with the school’s administration. We ensure that all portraits will be professionally and technically correct. Re-shooting of portraits due to technical problems (such as closed eyes or improperly arranged clothing) will incur no cost to the student. Proof booklets will be delivered to individual students by mail within 10 days of their sitting date, with no cost to the individual or the school. After receiving an order, finished prints will be mailed directly to the student’s home or sent to the school within six weeks.
