Need graduation photos?
CanGrad will be on-site at the School of Graduate Studies, 63 St. George Street, from 10 am-4 pm on November 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10. Book your sitting directly with CanGrad by email (mail@cangrad.com). Please include your degree, with the preferred day, and time in your email. All emails will be answered in the order they are received.
If you cannot attend on these dates email CanGrad Studios for studio information. The portrait sitting fee is $30.00 which includes the photography, your hood and gown, and the archiving of your images. If paying by e-transfer the cost is $31.00 and if by credit card the sitting fee is $32.00.
You will have 24-28 photographs taken and will be sent an online gallery with order forms and web size proofs of your images for viewing and ordering. The portraits take approximately 10 minutes, and you are asked to arrive 5 minutes prior to your time to get you ready for the shoot. You may order at any time as they keep all images on file.
Attire: CanGrad will supply the hood and gown. Suggested attire is a shirt & tie, or a white or cream blouse with a collar. Anti-glare glasses are recommended to reduce the reflection from the studio lights. You are responsible for your own hair and makeup. Please use only powder or matte / flat makeup and lipstick without any gloss. Please note that SGS is a scent-free environment.
