How does it work? It's pretty simple, really. You'll have a complimentary photo session before you start school senior year. You'll get to experience all of the fun and you'll have beautiful photos to show off. As the official “face” of Shana C. Carter Senior Portraiture, you’ll represent my studio and brand by sharing your photos with your friends and by spreading the word about your one of a kind senior portrait experience. The goal is to get your friends excited about booking their own senior photos with me. 

Any high school junior getting ready to start their senior year! I look for high school senior girls who are outgoing, involved in school, community activities, and who are just all around nice people! No modeling experience is required; I’m looking for natural, genuine high school seniors who love to be photographed!

So what does a Senior VIP have to do? It's TONS OF WORK! JUST kidding!!! It's pretty easy, actually - you just promote Shana C. Carter Photography by sharing the photos from your shoots! Tweet them, Instagram them, Facebook them, etc. You'll also promote SCC social media posts by simply "liking", commenting or sharing them, and every now and then, I might ask you to share a Facebook or Instagram post or something. You'll also have the opportunity to participate in extra photo shoots throughout the year.

What you DON’T have to do is make any certain number of referrals or pressure your friends into booking (trust me, your photos will sell themselves). There are NO required group meetings or meet-ups (I know how busy you are).  I like to keep things simple and easy!

• Extra photoshoots throughout your senior year that provides you with tons of content 
• Photo shoot before you start your senior year
• Your customized senior portrait session (3-4 hours)
• First dibs on open session dates for Class of 2025 (the best dates are reserved for VIP clients to choose from)
• Session prep guides with tons of details to help you plan for your senior session
• A custom-designed album from your senior session with matching memory box
• High-res digital files from all sessions
• Custom phone app from each session for easy sharing
• Access  to book an exclusive fall family mini session (at additional cost)
• Casual cap and gown mini-session
• Slideshow
• Photo gifts
• + lots more

Beyond the senior session, it’s up to you! You will have the opportunity to participate in shoots throughout the year, but nothing is required. You’re busy. I get it. You may be cautious that becoming a Senior VIP may take too much time out of your already jam-packed schedules. I assure you my Senior VIP program is simple and easy. All of the extra sessions are optional so if you don’t want to participate or have other plans - no worries! There aren’t any mandatory informational meetings, meet and greets or huge group shoots like some of those other teams you may have heard about.

Any small group sessions or themed sessions that I plan throughout the year.  I publish a calendar of shoots in the spring of your junior year.  That way you know all of the dates WAY in advance and hopefully you can plan around them.  Occasionally, I might do a "pop-up" session - this is when an idea "pops" into my mind that I really want to try.  These won't be on the calendar but I will reach out to all my VIPs to see who is game!

All high-res digitals from each session you participate in will be added to your online gallery where you can view, purchase, download, or share them to socials!

Yes!  After your initial membership payment of $299, I offer custom payment plans based on individual client needs.  Full payment is required to be completed one week before the main senior session.

Each year, in December, I open my Senior VIP program for the next class. I begin by sending out exclusive invites by email only to those who are on my VIP EMAIL LIST. What does this mean? You HAVE to get on my email list in order to receive your invite! You can add your name to the list below!
