School Portraits

School Portrait Sessions
My name is Meghan and I own Arabella Design Studio a portrait photography studio in Eliot, Maine. I specializes in child and family portrait photography. For the past 5 years I have been photographing small schools around the Seacoast in the Fall and Spring. I offer a full service photography experience, this allows schools to provide their families with portraits they will love, without all of the extra work that goes into it.
I work closely with the schools to decide the best days, times and locations for their school portraits. Some schools have a staggered schedule so I provide 2 mornings of sessions, some schools pick their most attended day and then offer a 45 minute make up sessions for any staff or children that may have been absent. I work quickly and with the school to make picture day easy and to avoid too much disruption to the rhythm of the day.
I opened my studio in 2016 after the birth of my daughter. I had left my job as a Kindergarten teacher to spend more time with my family. I found that by following my passions of photography and working with children and families I created a fulfilling and wonderful career.
I hope to bring my talents as an early childhood educator and photographer to your school.
