The story behind the name

The name Apple & Oak is simple, but full of meaning. The apple is a nod to early education and the teachers who shape our children’s first school experiences. The oak is inspired by the iconic oak trees that are everywhere here in the Sacramento area—a little local touch that reminds us of home, roots, and growing strong.

Our Mission

To create school portraits that parents truly love—images that are honest, beautiful, and thoughtfully captured. We believe every child deserves to be seen and celebrated just as they are, and every family deserves school portraits that feel like keepsakes.


Our Approach

We keep things simple, warm, and child-led. Our portrait experience is gentle and fun—never forced. We guide each session with patience, humor, and respect, allowing every child to show up as their authentic self. The result? Portraits that reflect real personality and charm.

WHAT WE VALUE

  • Connection over posing
  • Kindness and professionalism on school campuses
  • Authenticity in every image
  • Quality print and digital products at an affordable rate
  • Making life easier for school staff and parents alike
