Fun people. Trendy clothes and accessories. Beautiful faces. Our Faces 2012 images were created with a fashion catalog theme. Cosmetics counter head-shots on high key and a 1950s vintage French military parachute for the 3/4 and full-length outfit feature. Fundamental fashion elements, precisely executed with a retro theme, a classic combination. Images were created in the studio over a three week period from the last week of March through mid April.
How does the model program work?
For the last few years we’ve asked our models for their help in fine tuning our program. We’ve reviewed the responses to our surveys and a number of things stand out. Our models really enjoyed the experience. They appreciated the referral savings and the additional unique images they could get as a result of participating. On the other hand, almost every model wished they had done their actual senior portrait session later. They gave lots of reasons: “My prom dress wasn’t ready, still don’t have my summer outfits, pale skin, outdoor images with gray leafless trees don’t excite me…” Frankly, the reasons made a lot of sense to us. So we took action and changed our model program.
Our model program is unique.
Most student representative programs require that you have your session completed between January and early April. Why? Because studios need advertising sample images early enough to meet print deadlines for seasonal marketing programs. In other words those programs serve the studio’s promotional needs while disregarding the participants. That doesn’t seem like a mutually beneficial arrangement to us.
How are we different?
First of all, participants in our model program are NOT required to have their senior portrait sessions done early. Instead, we schedule your participation in one or more short sessions designed around specific themes. These early sessions represent additional looks… and extra outfits! They’re a lot of fun, a chance to try some really trendy looks, and they add variety to your images. You won’t have to exclude your prom dress or summer outfits and you won’t have to accept lifeless outdoor portraits. Best of all, you can schedule your regular senior session anytime before mid July, just like everyone else!
