What Our Clients Say

## Trusted by Professionals Who Care About Image

Trusted by 500+ organizations nationwide.

“

> "We used to have clinicians just send in their photos. But we were getting all kinds of garbage. It was awful. People could go in and change photos, so we had all these random photos on our website. Capturely is simple, it's easy — and you really can tell the difference. And it's way faster than anything we've done in the past."

## Questions? We Have Answers.

### Can a phone really produce school portrait quality?

Modern smartphone rear cameras are 36-48 megapixels — higher resolution than the DSLRs most school photographers use. Combined with professional direction and retouching, the results are studio-grade. We've delivered 100,000+ portraits this way for Google, Netflix, and McKinsey.

### Will parents actually do this?

It's 10 minutes on their phone at a time they choose. Parents already spend more time wrestling their kid into picture day outfits — with zero control over the result. With Capturely, they control the hair, the outfit, and the environment. They see the photos before they buy. We expect higher participation rates, not lower.

### What about yearbook photos and timelines?

High-res digital files are delivered within 3 days of each session, matched to student data automatically. We export directly to whatever yearbook platform you use — Jostens, Walsworth, Entourage, Treering — properly formatted and organized by grade and class. No waiting for picture day to happen first.

### Does this integrate with our school information system?

It can. Capturely pulls student rosters from your SIS — PowerSchool, Infinite Campus, Skyward, Tyler — and pushes completed portraits back for student records and ID cards. Session links go out through your existing communication channels. You don't switch systems or learn new software.

### What commission do schools earn?

Schools earn 15-20% commission on parent purchases, depending on the contract tier. Because parents see the photos before they buy, purchase rates are higher than traditional picture day — which means more commission dollars for your school, even at the same percentage.

### What about data privacy and FERPA?

Photos are captured on the family's own phone and uploaded to our secure platform. We comply with FERPA. We never share, sell, or license student images. Our photographers are never physically with the child — the parent is always present. Our data practices pass security reviews at Google and UnitedHealth Group. We're independent and founder-led — no private equity, no corporate conglomerate.

### How hard is it to switch from our current vendor?

It's designed to be zero-friction. No contract minimum, no upfront cost, no hardware to install. We start with a free pilot — one grade, no commitment. You distribute a link, families book sessions on their own time, and portraits come back in 24 hours. If your school loves it, we expand to the full student body. If not, you walk away. Most schools run the pilot alongside their current vendor so there's never a gap in coverage.
