    Maybe back in the day when it was actually photographers taking the pictures. Now you have a ‘photo technician’ who has all the training in photography that a basset hound does. The big school portrait company (Lifetouch, usually), sends out this person with a pictoral instruction sheet of where to put the camera, the stool, the background, etc. Then they just make sure the child is at least kind of in the middle of the picture and push a shutter button. Then it’s on to the next. Developing the picture is about the same way. It’s just mass processed by a computer.

    I know because I tried to get into the business of doing school portraits so I could make money off of my photography passion and quickly found out what a passionless field it is. Not only that, but breaking into it is like breaking into liquor during the prohibition, it’s locked up tight by a handful of major players.
