HOW TO TAKE THE BEST SYNAGOGUE CUTOUT PHOTO
 

1. Have a friend or family member take the photo for you and hold the phone vertically.

2. New photos work best, pick a solid painted wall and get ready to smile. Feel free to use your Smartphone - no selfies, please.

3. Find a space with good lighting, solid color background. Make sure your shirt and the background are contrasting colors.

4. High Holiday attire is preferred.

 

5. Only one person per seat/in the photo. 

6. Remember, keep your arms and hands down next to your body. Make sure to face the camera and capture at least your waist up.

7. We are unable to create cutouts that include any of the following: obscene or offensive language, advertisements, political endorsements.

8. Preferred file size is 2448 x 3264 at a 72 DPI. The Cutout at full size is approximately 20” x 30”. If your file is smaller, keep in mind the image may appear blurry.

 

9. Give your best smile and say, "Shanah Tovah!"
