Your Memories, Professionally Captured.

The photographer helped us with my daughters high school senior portraits and ALL the photos turned out amazing. She had great ideas for poses and was quick and efficient. All of the enhancements she did were right on the money. I was stressed going into the appointment and left feeling like everything was perfect. I’m glad I chose JCP for these special senior pics.

– CHRISTINA FROM WASHINGTON SQUARE STUDIO

The photographer was SO AWESOME!!! She picked out perfect backgrounds for our clothes, helped us pose correctly AND let us know to fix our hair. A lot of people don’t tell you when your hair is not right. The photographer completely made my day! It was for my daughter’s senior pictures so it was extremely important to me.

– GINA FROM NAMPA GATEWAY CENTER STUDIO

My 17 year-old son hates his pictures being taken. I went for his senior pictures and I was dreading it. The photographer cracked him! I am so pleased with the service, the shoot, and then being able to make it somewhat fun for my son. They did the impossible! I will definitely be back.

FAQ

How much do senior pictures cost?

A session fee is $14.99 per person. Upgrade to an extended session for an additional $24.99 to enjoy extra time in front of the camera. Join our Perks Club for $39.99 (two-year membership) and enjoy unlimited free session fees.

We also offer Afterpay so you can enjoy your session today and pay over time in four interest-free payments.

When to schedule senior pictures?

It is common for seniors to schedule their senior pictures during summer break between junior year and senior year. However, indoor senior sessions are available year-round in our studios. Choose a time that works best for you and start planning early.

If you’re scheduling an outdoor senior photoshoot as well, every season offers a different look. Spring is perfect for blooming flowers, summer offers beautiful golden-hour lighting, and fall creates a backdrop of colorful leaves and rich tones.

Important note: many yearbook photo deadlines occur in early to mid fall, so be sure to schedule your session with plenty of time to spare.

How long do JCPenney Portraits senior photoshoots take?

Our standard sessions last about 45 minutes, including 15 minutes in the camera room.

Upgrade to an extended session to enjoy 30 minutes of camera time for more variety and poses.

What not to wear for senior photos?

Our goal is to make you feel comfortable and confident during your session. Choose outfits that reflect your personality and make you feel like yourself.

We recommend avoiding busy patterns, bold logos, overly trendy pieces, or uncomfortable items that may distract from your photos. Instead, opt for timeless styles that photograph well, like solid colors, layered looks, denim, dresses, button-downs, or casual outfits that fit your personal style. Bringing multiple outfit options can also help add variety to your session.

If you’re including friends, parents, siblings, or pets in your photos, choose outfits that complement each other rather than perfectly match.

Important note: clothing must not be transparent and undergarments must not be visible.

How do I access the digital images I purchased?

If you purchased digital images at your photo session, they will be delivered to your Shutterfly account. Shortly after your session, you will receive an email from JCPenney Portraits that your images are available to claim online.

If you did not purchase digital images at your photo session or had an outdoor session, your digital album will be available on MyCollection by Lifetouch where you can view your images and shop personalized photo products. If you purchase digital images from MyCollection, they will be delivered to your Shutterfly account.

How soon can I get my JCPenney Portraits products?

Your personalized photo products will typically ship to your address within 14 business days after your visit.
