Class of 2024: Why NOW is the time to book your senior pics In order to make sure you have your senior pictures ready for your grad card orders, grad party, and senior slide shows, let’s look at the AHP timeline to find out how far in advance you’ll want to have your session:

Session day to gallery delivery: this time includes culling through your session, editing your images, uploading your high res images to your custom gallery, and sending you your custom delivery hub. This means that at the most basic of image delivery, you’ll have digitals between 2 – 3 weeks after your senior session.

If you want grad cards, albums, and other products, you’ll need to add a few more weeks to your end goal timeline. Grad card design to card delivery: from the moment you place your order with AHP, we work hard to get your grad cards designed, proofed, confirmed, printed and delivered to your doorstep within 2-3 weeks.

Remember that you want to send out graduation and party invitations at least 6 weeks in advance if you want to give people enough time to plan to come. Grad announcements can simply be sent out at any time between May and August.

Senior products design to delivery: if you’d like to have an album, signing portrait, gift prints and canvases displayed at your grad party, you’ll want to order those products at least 3 weeks before your grad festivities.

So, if you plan on sending out graduation and party invitations, you’ll want to book your session 9 weeks in advance to make sure you have plenty of time to invite your family, friends, and loved ones. For this timing, you’ll need to book your session for early April. If you’re planning on only sending out grad announcements, you’ll want to book your session at least 6 weeks in advance of your festivities. This means that you’ll want to book your session, at the very latest, in mid-April. Are you panicking yet?!?! Don’t worry! We still have a few March and early April sessions left! DM us your email address and we’ll send you information complete with our session pricing, timeline, testimonials, faqs, and more!

XOXO,
