  • Strong school communities are built through connection, engagement, and the people who show up for students every day. That's why we're proud of our longtime partnership with National PTA and the opportunity to capture the moments that bring educators, families, volunteers, and advocates together. These photos from the 2026 National PTA Convention in Pittsburgh showcase just a few of the conversations, celebrations, and connections that help strengthen school communities across the country.

  • We were honored to support our partners at the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation (@PBTF) during Cars, Bikes & Coffee + Ride for Kids at Honda's Torrance campus. Families, supporters, and automotive enthusiasts came together for a morning of connection, community, and support for children and families affected by pediatric brain tumors. 💙 As proud partners of @Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation, and the people driving meaningful change. Thank you to everyone who stopped by and helped make the day special. #Lifetouch #PBTF #RideForKids #CommunityImpact #PartnersWithPurpose

  • This summer, Lifetouch and Shutterfly employees are taking advantage of the beautiful lake trail just outside our home office through the Lake Walk Challenge. It's a simple way to step away from the desk, enjoy some fresh air, connect with colleagues, and appreciate the outdoor space that's part of our everyday environment. Every minute counts, but the real goal is getting outside and enjoying the walk. 🌿🚶♀️🚶♂️ Thank you to the team members who helped bring this challenge to life and to everyone who has joined along the way. #LifeAtLifetouch #CompanyCulture #EmployeeExperience #TeamConnection

  • Earlier this month, school leaders and partners came together at Flora Ridge Elementary School for Community Service Day ahead of #NAESP26. Lifetouch was proud to sponsor the playground build and several school readiness projects, while our team rolled up their sleeves alongside fellow volunteers to help bring those efforts to life. At the same time, our photographers were there capturing the moments that made the day special. From playground construction to the finishing touches around campus, these images showcase what can happen when a community comes together in support of students. We're grateful to have contributed not only through service, but also by documenting the teamwork, generosity, and shared commitment that helped prepare Flora Ridge Elementary School for the year ahead. #NAESP26 #SchoolLeadership #CommunityImpact #K12Education

  • Before the start of #NAESP26, school leaders and partners came together at Flora Ridge Elementary School for Community Service Day. Thanks to a playground donation from Landscape Structures, volunteers helped build a new play space and complete several projects to help prepare the school for the upcoming year. Lifetouch was proud to sponsor the playground build and several additional school readiness projects, supporting the collective effort to create a welcoming environment for the school's 600 Pre-K–5 students. Thank you to everyone who rolled up their sleeves to make a difference for the Flora Ridge Elementary community. #NAESP26 #SchoolLeadership #CommunityImpact #K12Education

  • This image reflects a belief that has guided school photography for generations: the moments that make up a school year are worth remembering. For more than 90 years, school portraits have helped schools and families preserve milestones, celebrate achievement, and document the moments that shape each student's journey. While photography has evolved over the decades, our purpose remains the same: capturing meaningful memories that connect generations and tell the stories of students, schools, and communities. #FlashbackFriday #Lifetouch #Lifetouch90 #SchoolPhotography

  • This 1950s National School Studios advertisement captures an early chapter in school portrait history. Printed and shared with families, pieces like this helped introduce school photography in a way that was clear, accessible, and built for connection beyond the classroom. What started as a simple printed message helped shape a lasting relationship between schools, families, and the memories they share. That foundation continues to guide how we support schools and serve families today. #FlashbackFriday #Lifetouch #Lifetouch90
