Graduation is the culmination of years of work. The ceremony happens once. The photos from that day should be honoured at the quality the achievement deserves — not stored on a phone and gradually forgotten, but printed large, displayed proudly, and seen every day by the graduate and their family.
The Custom ZM at Chester House, Cairo Road is Lusaka's premium custom printing studio for graduation portrait printing. We produce graduation portrait prints from 40×30cm at K180 up to 100×100cm at K900 — every size available, every photo handled with the care the occasion deserves.
Why Print Your Graduation Photo?
A graduation photo on a phone is invisible most of the time. A graduation portrait printed and hung on the wall is visible every day. It is the reminder of the achievement. It is the piece family members point to with pride. It is what the graduate looks at on difficult days later in their career when they need to remember what they are capable of.
A graduation portrait print from The Custom ZM is not a commodity product — it is a significant piece produced to a standard that matches the significance of the occasion.

Which Photo Should I Use?
The official graduation photo from the photographer is usually the best choice — high resolution, professionally lit, with the graduate in full regalia. If the official photo is not yet available, a well-lit personal photo in graduation attire works well. Send us the photo in the highest resolution available.
We will advise if the photo resolution or quality needs adjustment before printing. We do not produce a print that will disappoint you — if the source photo has limitations, we tell you before proceeding.
