For contracting and vendor records, the legal business is AMC PHOTO Inc. The service brand is The School Photo Company. Schools should use the legal name and vendor number required by their own procurement process and written agreement.
Our Complete Wireless Mobile Photography Studio comes to you, featuring the latest in photographic technology, right at your school’s doorstep.
What the vendor number does—and does not—mean
The vendor number identifies AMC PHOTO Inc in NYC school-related vendor documentation. It does not by itself mean that every service is authorized for every school, replace a school’s procurement steps or imply an endorsement by NYC Public Schools. The applicable school agreement, purchase process and school-specific authorization control the engagement.
Services schools can discuss
Student and staff portraits
Fall or spring individual portraits, staff photos, make-up planning and related family ordering.

Cap-and-gown and moving-up portraits coordinated around school-selected colors and schedules.

School-authorized files

Planning and student information
Picture-day planning may require class schedules, staff contacts, student names or other school-provided information. The exact information depends on the services and deliverables. Information should be limited to what is needed for the authorized work, transferred through agreed methods and handled according to the school agreement and applicable requirements.
Our privacy policy explains categories of information used for picture day, proofing, fulfillment and support. A controlling NYCPS or school agreement may impose additional or stricter requirements.
