There’s something extra special about our Senior Model Team holiday shoot every year.
It’s not just about festive outfits, twinkly lights, or the perfect winter backdrop (though those are definitely part of the fun). This shoot is a celebration of friendships formed, confidence grown, and a group of seniors who chose to make their senior year more than just photos.
And if you’ve ever wondered what it’s really like to be on the 627 Photography Senior Model Team or how you can be part of the next team- this one’s for you!
What the Holiday Shoot Is Really About
By the time our holiday shoot rolls around, the team has already spent months together. They’ve styled sessions, cheered each other on, shown up for team shoots, and built real friendships.
It’s festive but it’s also meaningful. For many of these seniors, this shoot becomes one of their favorite memories from senior year.
Why Seniors Love Being on the Team
Being on the Senior Model Team isn’t about being “a model.” It’s about being you, with support, confidence, and an experience you can’t get from a standard senior session.
Here’s what team members get:
A Built-In Senior-Year Experience
Instead of one photoshoot and done, team members are part of multiple shoots throughout the year- themed, planned, and photographed professionally.
Confidence That Grows Over Time
Most seniors start out saying, “I’m awkward in front of the camera.”
By the end of the year? They know their angles, trust the process, and walk into shoots confident and comfortable.
Real Friendships
This is one of the biggest surprises for parents and seniors alike. The team becomes a circle of girls from different schools coming together and actually forming friendships.
Exclusive Perks
Team members receive:
Priority booking for their senior session
Team-only themed shoots (like the holiday shoot)
Build confidence + relationships
Content they love sharing all year long
Images That Feel Elevated
The images created during team shoots are editorial, timeless, and fun! Perfect for social media!
Who the Senior Model Team Is Perfect For
The team is a great fit for seniors who:
- Want more than a basic senior photo experience
- Love being part of a group but also want to stand out
- Are excited by fashion, creativity, or trying new things
- Want senior year to feel memorable!
You do not need modeling experience. You just need to show up, be kind, and be open to the experience.
How to Apply for the Next Senior Model Team
Each year, applications open for the upcoming graduating class and spots are intentionally limited.
Here’s how the process works:
- Join the Waitlist
Those on the waitlist hear first when applications open. - Submit an Application
This helps me get to know you – your personality, interests, and what you’re excited about for senior year. - Parent Info Meeting
Parents are included early so everyone understands the experience, investment, and expectations. - Welcome to the Team!!
Once selected, the fun officially begins.
Want to Be in the Next Holiday Shoot?
Every year, seniors see the holiday shoot photos and say, “I wish I had done that.”
