PICTURE DAY
Saturday, September 6th, 2025, 10:30 AM TO 4:30 PM
It’s September—and you know what that means: Picture Day.
But this time? You get to skip the awkward school gym setup, the fake smile, and actually like the photo.
Picture Day is a one-day photo event featuring emerging photographers—queer creatives who each bring their perspective to portraiture as they build their portfolios and sharpen their craft.
This is your chance to get thoughtful, affordable portraits while supporting up-and-coming talent.
Because we’ve all earned a retake from that one yearbook photo, and sometimes when you grow up you just don’t get a yearly photo anymore.
Come support rising artists doing what they love—and walk away with portraits that feel like you.
