“A photo directory is a great way to document who we are at this time in the history of our church and a useful reference for putting names with faces,” said Anne Dunn, President of ECW. “We encourage all our parishioners to participate because the more who do, the more complete and more useful our directory will be.”

“The St. Paul’s church family will be featured in the directory, but we’re happy to photograph extended families, too,” said Rick. “We suggest scheduling two consecutive 15-minute appointments to give us extra time to capture the church members for the directory photo as well as the larger family group.

“We are also happy to shoot individual head shots and make those available on CD for those who need them for business or professional uses.”

Well-behaved pets may also be included in family portraits.

Rick recommends solid colored long-sleeved tops as the most flattering and reminds that pants and skirts will show. “For the best results, it’s a good idea for families to color-coordinate their outfits, too,” he added.

Rick and his team will shoot photographs and take orders for portrait packages in Rooms 305 and 306, which are easily accessible by elevator from the Goodheart Entrance.

Appointments are available for three weeks between September 13 and October 1 on Tuesdays through Thursdays from 3:00 to 8:00 p.m., Fridays from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. To schedule an appointment, click here and select St. Paul’s.

St. Paul’s youth will be in the library with laptop computers before and after classes on Sunday, September 11, to schedule appointments for parishioners who do not have access to a computer.

Senior adults may also call Anne Rahn at (336) 723-4797 for help with scheduling an appointment.
