Studio photography is by appointment only and available for official portraits as required by AFI as well as applications for special duty assignments, official passports, and citizenship applications. Chain-of-command studio photography will be provided for leadership at the squadron-level and above (commander, deputy/vice commander, senior enlisted leader, and first sergeant) as well as quarterly and annual award winners at the group-level and above. HQ staff is limited to Directorate-level equivalents. 

Exceptions to the official studio photography stipulations are permitted with proper justification annotated within DoDI, AFI, and/or package descriptions explaining the need for an official photo. A commander’s email does not meet the justification requirement for having an official photo taken.

All official photos will be emailed to the requestor as the primary product. Prints are available if justification is approved.
