APPLY BY saturday, feb 15th, 2025!
apply here to be a class of 2026 senior rep!
What does a senior rep mean?
It is simple: I truly value the power of word of mouth referrals, and it is always important to me to get “in” with each new class of seniors! You will be representing my business and what I stand for—celebrating the uniqueness and beauty of everyone and valuing high-quality photos to cherish this senior year milestone. One thing I love about this team is that we have representation from many different high schools in the area - what a cool way to be a positive influence and light in the metroplex!
Why would I want to be on the team?
Being on the rep team is just a super fun opportunity to get some cute photos, meet new friends from all over the DFW area (who knows you might end up going to the same college as some of them!), and add a special memory to your senior year experience. My favorite thing about it is the connections and friendships that are made from the team. And of course, you get amazing extra senior photos throughout the year!
What is required of me?
Positivity first and foremost! And with that, a team-mindset, confidence and cheerleading attitude. I also would love that you enjoy social media and sharing photos/posts. That is the main way that I like to promote my senior portrait photography. I also ask that you be willing to share with your friends about your experience and also share with upcoming juniors too!
You also MUST book a senior session with me outside of the rep team. I want to make sure you know my pricing/packages structure, etc before committing to rep. You can fill out the inquiry form for that here
I ask that you be at as many of the sessions as possible (The one “required” shoot that you must be able to attend is the whole group shoot in the summer…I want at least one session with everyone present.) This will most likely be a Sunday afternoon mid to late summer. I will do a few optional “promo” sessions early on in the usmmer where a few of you can sign up and do a mini session with me at some fun, new-to-me locations in the area that I have been wanting to try. These will be individual portrait-focused and you will sign up for a time slot on a particular day time along with other reps (there will probably be 3-4 others on the same day). The other group shoots will be more large-group focused with some time set aside for a few individual portraits too.
When you are accepted, you (and your parents) will need to fill out a contract and pay the $100 joining fee to make it official! :)
Why is the joining fee for?
I have a $100 joining fee to help cover just part of the costs of the rep team photoshoots. Many of our sessions are themed, and I will rent out photo studios, buy props, snacks/etc, cover travel for all the sessions, etc. This just helps offset some of that cost. The value of all the sessions/photos you are getting is WAY over that- but this does just allow me to keep the team going over the years.
What shoots are involved for Team 2026?
-summer promo sessions in June and July, dates and locations TBD
-large (themed) group shoot in early August (most likely will be Sunday, August 3rd or 10th, 2025, but TBD)
-NYE themed photoshoot in mid-December
-Galentine’s party, February 2026 (This event is where I encourage you to bring a junior or two that might be interested in senior portraits the following year and get some cute valentine’s portraits too!)
-College Tee/Cap and Gown Farewell session in mid-April
….and the possibility for pop-up sessions if inspiration strikes! :)
Do my parents need to be there?
With written permission, parents are not required to come to all sessions, but they are always welcome and I LOVE it when they are there too …. I want them to be a part of this fun process! I also would love to have a “team mom” or two - someone that doesn’t mind coming to the sessions and helping me out a little bit. If that sounds like something your mom would be interested in let me know!
I hope this answers a lot of your questions but please feel free to let me know if you have any others! I already have the cutest ideas for this year and cannot WAITTT!
Thank you so much for your excitement and interest in being a part of my rep team! This is one of my favorite parts of working with seniors…it is truly such a joy to get know y’all and be a small part of your senior year.
Love,
Kate
