Austin Preschool, Daycare & School Photography

School photos that actually look like your kids.

Modern, personality-filled school portraits for preschools, daycares and schools throughout Austin, Texas.

A relaxed photo day experience for your students. Beautiful portraits that parents are excited to receive. And an organized, full-service process that makes picture day easy for your school.

A different kind of school picture day.

No forced smiles. No stiff poses. No one-size-fits-all school portraits.

I create natural, joyful portraits that let each child's personality come through — whether they're outgoing and silly, a little more reserved, or somewhere in between.

 

As an Austin photographer and a mom, I know kids don't always perform on command. And that's exactly the point. I meet them where they are, keep things light and fun, and create portraits that feel like them.

The result is a school picture parents don't just order because it's picture day — it's one they genuinely love.

Picture day that gives back.

There is no cost to your school to host picture day. Families simply purchase the images they love, and 10% of picture day sales goes directly back to your school.

Beautiful portraits for your families, with an added benefit for your school.

Here's How
it Works

01 We Plan Your Photo Day

03 Parents Receive Their Galleries

Families receive access to private online galleries where they can view their child's images and choose what they'd like to purchase.

Ordering, payments, questions and fulfillment are handled directly through Megan Ayn Photography — so your staff doesn't become the picture-day customer service department.

04 I Handle The Rest

Photo day is relaxed, efficient and fun, with just a few minutes needed with each child.

02 I Photograph Your Students

We'll choose your date, create a schedule and make sure your school has everything it needs to communicate picture day with families.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 Does our school pay anything for picture day?

No. There is no cost to the school to host picture day. Families decide whether they'd like to purchase images after viewing their private gallery.

 

02 How long does each child's photo session take?

Only a few minutes. I keep sessions short, relaxed and engaging so we can photograph students efficiently without sacrificing personality.

 

03 How do parents order photos?

Parents receive access to a private online gallery where they can view their child's images and purchase prints, digital files and packages.

 

04 Do families have to purchase photos?

No. There is never an obligation to purchase.

 

05 Do you photograph siblings?

Yes! I'm happy to photograph siblings who attend the school together. In addition to their individual portraits, I'll photograph siblings together so families have the opportunity to purchase those images as well. We'll coordinate sibling photos with your school ahead of picture day to make sure they fit smoothly into the schedule.

 

06 Do you provide staff photos?

Yes. Complimentary staff portraits are included for participating schools.

 

07 What does our school receive?

10% of picture day proceeds is given directly back to your school — an easy way to support your school community without adding another fundraiser to the calendar.

 

08 What areas do you serve?

Megan Ayn Photography provides preschool, daycare and school photography throughout Austin and surrounding Central Texas communities, including South Austin, Buda, Kyle, Dripping Springs and nearby areas.
