WaldoPro announced the WaldoPro platform enables auto-cropping of school portraits, provides parents the opportunity to choose their child’s yearbook photo, and supports industry-standard data exporting. Waldo’s mobile proof delivery, with its FaceBlocker copyright protection, allows studios to engage parents in viewing their school portraits as part of the yearbook photo selection process, the company claims. WaldoPro’s algorithm automatically crops each portrait consistently, ensuring each student’s photo is perfectly aligned for consistent yearbook layouts. The images are then instantly exportable in the required format, making it simple for yearbook teams to integrate into final layouts.

“We developed this tool in response to the time and resource constraints that school photographers face,” says Rodney Rice, CEO, WaldoPro. “By eliminating hours of tedious work, photographers have more time to focus on capturing memorable moments and building a better yearbook.”

Key benefits of the WaldoPro’s Auto-Crop, Selection, & Export features include:

  • Time-saving automation: Automatically crop and export hundreds of portraits with a single click.
  • Consistency in framing: Ensure all portraits are uniformly cropped to fit yearbook layouts.
  • User-friendly interface: Designed to be intuitive for photographers and yearbook staff, reducing training time.
  • Parent photo selection: Parents to choose their favorite portrait for inclusion in the yearbook.
