FOR SCHOOLS & PLAYSCHOOLS
Marmalade Bear School Photography
Studio-quality portraits for every learner, complimentary prints for your staff, and an online ordering system that takes school photo day completely off your admin list. I bring full studio lighting and a choice of backdrops, so any room, hall or corner of your school becomes a proper photo studio — rain or shine.
WHY SCHOOLS CHOOSE MARMALADE BEAR
Everything handled, nothing left for your staff to chase
Full Studio Lighting, Any Location
We bring a complete studio lighting setup and a pre selected backdrop to suit your space, so results are consistent and professional whatever the room looks like or what the weather’s doing outside.
A private gallery for every family — not a shared link
Students are given Personalised Parent slips to take home. Every child is issued their own unique access code — a random string that excludes easily-confused characters, so it’s simple to read out. That code unlocks only that student’s private gallery. There’s no class-wide link, no public gallery, and no way for one family to browse another family’s photos. It’s a privacy-conscious system designed with your school’s POPIA obligations around learner images in mind, and it means you can hand out access codes with confidence.
Prints Delivered to School
Every child’s order is printed, packed and delivered straight to the school for children to take home — no separate collection point and no chasing parents for pickup.
Complimentary Staff & Class Prints
Schools will also receive complimentary teacher and class prints (and digitals) to update your current roster — at no cost to the school.
HOW IT WORKS
From booking to prints in hand, in four simple steps
Book Your Date
A quick conversation confirms your picture day date and schedule — no paperwork required from your side.

Prints Delivered to School

PRIVACY, BUILT IN
A private gallery for every family — not a shared link
Every child is issued their own unique access code — a random string that excludes easily-confused characters, so it’s simple to read out or print on a note home. That code unlocks only that child’s private gallery. There’s no class-wide link, no public gallery, and no way for one family to browse another family’s photos. It’s a privacy-conscious system designed with your school’s POPIA obligations around learner images in mind, and it means you can hand out access codes with confidence.
