Carrie's question:
I have to go research pick up vs. pickup, as in "your pictures will be ready for..."
Pickup with no space is a noun, so you use that with "Your pictures will be ready for pickup." It can also be an adjective: " a pickup game of baseball"
To pick up is a verb, so you would say, "I will pick you up at 10:00."
I have covered this topic before: here, here and here.
