School Photographer

Slow Road Photo is a Twin Cities based School Picture Day company. We are hiring photographers to capture school Picture Day photos, events, and family mini sessions.

Slow Road Photo provides Picture Day services, sports portraits, event photography, marketing photos, and more throughout the year to over 100 schools in the Twin Cities. Onsite Team Members are at the core of everything we do for our schools.

At Slow Road Photo, photographers are the ones behind the camera, capturing authentic expressions and creating a welcoming, joyful atmosphere for all participants. They use their expert eye to make sure every student is photo ready, they engage warmly, and they know exactly when to push the shutter to capture an authentic smile. They will also photograph various school events and family mini sessions throughout the year.
