Online School Photography Service


in partnership with GotPhoto

"School Photography Redefined"


DS Colour Labs are proud to partner with GotPhoto to offer a secure online school photo ordering system for photographers. This system replaces traditional proof cards with a password-protected portal, making it easy for parents to order photos from the comfort of their own homes.

The system also offers a streamlined workflow, making it easier for photographers to upload and process photos. This frees up time for photographers to focus on what they do best: taking great photos.

School photography is a demanding job, and it's important to have a reliable partner who can help you with the editing workflow and printing. That's why we're proud to partner with GotPhoto to offer this secure online ordering system.
