How do I know if my Soldier purchased while taking his photos?

 

We do not sell Graduation photos to the Soldier’s while taking the photos or anytime before their Turning Blue Ceremony, IET lunch/dinner or family day. These events will be the very first time the photos will be seen or purchased by the public.

 

I purchased photos and/or items during my Soldier’s Turning Blue Ceremony, IET lunch/dinner or family day; however, we left and forgot to pick up my order. What do I need to do so I can receive my order?

 

Please call us in our office to pay for and arrange shipping, Monday – Friday 9 am – 2 pm eastern time at 706-685-2222. Our prices do not include shipping as we strive to have every order available for next day pick up.
