How booking works, what it costs, what happens on the day, and how we look after your pupils. If you cannot find your answer, contact us: info@yeklens.com or WhatsApp +44 7865 628182.
Use the Book a Pilot form on our For Institutions page, or email info@yeklens.com, or message us on WhatsApp on +44 7865 628182. A member of our team replies, we agree a date, and we book the photographers.
No. Photo Day is free to the school. We earn from the photos parents choose to buy, and we pay your school a share of those sales. There is nothing to pay before, on or after the day.
No. Parents order and pay online, so your school handles no cash and does no money counting. We deliver the finished photos to your school free of charge.
A digital portrait of every pupil for your school records, delivered as a folder named by pupil and class, and portraits of your staff on the same day. School ID cards are a separate service: see our Services page.
Each child holds a numbered slate or their ID card in the first frame, then has their portrait taken. We match every photo to the right child using the slate, with no face recognition.
After the photo day each family receives a printed card with a QR code and a Photo ID and Photo Key. Parents scan the card, see their child's photos, and order.
A class list: pupil name, class and, if you can, a pupil number, plus a sibling group label for any brothers and sisters. Any spreadsheet will do, because we match your column headings when we load it. We also need a quiet space with a plain wall or backdrop area, a staff member to bring classes in order, and a timetable agreed with your photographer.
Your photographer will agree a timetable with you before the day.
Yes. Mark brothers and sisters in the class list with the same sibling group label, even if they are in different classes. We photograph each child and the siblings together, and the family gets one card with one Photo ID and one Photo Key that opens all of their photos. If a family should not share a card (for example separated parents), leave the label blank and each child gets their own card.
No. We photograph staff on the same day as the pupils. Tell us about a high number of staff when you book so we can allow enough time.
We will always try, but we cannot promise because of scheduling and availability.
No. Our photographers do not touch pupils to adjust hair, uniform or appearance and do not comment on how a pupil looks. If an adjustment is needed, the pupil agrees first and a teacher is present. We ask schools to make any adjustments before pupils come to be photographed.
Yes. A member of school staff stays with each class throughout. A photographer is never alone with a child.
Only the family who holds that child's card. A parent needs the Photo ID and Photo Key from the printed card. Before they pay, parents see watermarked photos only. We do not publish photos on any public gallery.
Not yet. To see how your school's sales and share are doing, email info@yeklens.com or message us on WhatsApp and we send you the report. A school page may be added later.
No. We also photograph university graduations, churches and companies. See our Services page.
