Update from HR Imaging regarding Spring Pictures:
Due to some technical issues, some parents weren’t able to order their child’s spring portraits online. As a result, they have decided to send home proofs to allow all parents to have the opportunity to order portraits. If you already ordered portraits, your child will not receive a proof.
**All orders for spring portraits are due by Friday, April 26th**
