Loyalty Incentive Program

To thank our long-standing daycare partners, we’ve developed a tiered incentive program based on the number of years we’ve worked together:

What this means: You receive a percentage-based rebate or bonus after each successful shoot, just for staying with us. It’s our way of saying thank you for your loyalty and partnership.

To maintain your qualification in your current incentive tier, we kindly ask that you meet the following terms: Annual Booking Requirement: To remain in your current tier, your center must book at least one photography session with us each calendar year. Primary Photographer Status: This program is designed for centers who choose Heritage Studios as their primary photography provider. While we understand you may occasionally work with additional photographers for specialty events, regular photo days (such as seasonal, theme, or graduation photos) should be booked with Heritage Studios. Program Evaluation: Eligibility and tier placement are reviewed annually. Centers that do not meet the annual booking or primary provider requirements may be moved to a different tier.

Participation Based Incentive

Our participation-based incentive program is designed to reward centers that help create a smooth, high-engagement photo day experience for families.

In addition to your standard loyalty percentage, centers may earn additional cash incentives based on overall participation from their scheduled photo day. These incentives are earned on top of existing loyalty bonuses and are intended to encourage strong collaboration and efficient photo day flow.

To be eligible for a participation-based incentive, centers must meet the following minimum requirements:

  • A minimum of 50 participating children

  • At least $1,000 in total photo sales

Centers that consistently qualify for participation incentives typically:

  • Communicate early and clearly with parents

  • Encourage timely order placement

  • Help maintain organized class transitions on photo day

  • Partner closely with our team to ensure children are prepared and photo-ready

Our Account Management team provides communication tools and guidance to help centers maximize participation with minimal added effort.

This incentive structure reflects our commitment to partnership — rewarding centers that help create an exceptional experience for families while increasing overall success on photo day.
