Graduate Photos

While graduation photos are not required, there is an option to have photos taken with the photographer/studio of your choice.

, a local Halifax studio, has been provided with the University’s academic regalia (hood & gown). Graduates can have photos taken at the studio without borrowing the regalia directly from the University.

Calnen will provide SMUSA with your graduation photo for the Yearbook. Students having their photo taken with another photographer can contact SMUSA to have their photo included in the yearbook.

Calnen Photography will be on-site following the Convocation ceremonies to allow graduates to have the option of paying to have their portrait taken.

If you have any questions, please contact studio@calnen.ca.
