It’s springtime, which means green grass, warm breezes and… Senior pictures!
We’re looking for high school juniors (graduating in 2010) to apply for our senior ambassador program. Basically, we’re looking for students who will be a model and a voice for our studio. You’d be a GREAT candidate for the senior ambassador program if you have an outgoing personality and are active in school activities such as sports, drama, band, clubs or other extracurricular activities. Even if you’re not involved in any of these but you feel like you have what it takes, drop me an email at photo@ctryan.com and let me know! We’ll only be accepting 2-3 seniors per school, so apply QUICKLY!
WHO:
Twin Cities metro high school students, graduating in 2010 are eligible. Email Tamrah at photo@ctryan.com and I’ll send you a short application.
WHAT:
Senior ambassadors will receive a free, specialized senior session with unlimited locations and clothing changes. You’ll get a lot of great stuff! We aren’t into the “stand here stiffly and smile” kinds of photos… Feel free to bring props that show your personality: a cool hat, your guitar, sports equipment, a favorite prom dress, even your awesome car. We want your shoot to scream YOU! It’s all about you and your friends getting the best possible senior pictures!
WHERE:
Basically, anywhere in the twin cities is fair game (we shoot everything on-location). I have a lot of great ideas if you need some inspiration, but it’s really up to you… a junkyard with some really awesome old cars, a colorful building, a baseball diamond, the Stone Arch bridge, downtown Minneapolis… anywhere!
WHEN:
We would like to start shooting Senior Ambassador sessions as soon as the weather cooperates!
WHY:
We want you to believe in your photos and then pass the info on to your friends! You are our best advertisement. We want to get our name out there, and this is our way to thank you for helping us do that.
This is what you’ll receive:
– A fun, free specialized portrait session ($175 value)
– A set of pictures to post on your Facebook and Myspace pages
– A free, custom designed, hardcover senior album ($200 value)
– Free rep cards, personalized with your best photos
– You’ll also get 5% off your prints for each referral, up to 75% off
ALSO,
For each referral who books with us, you will receive $20 cash.
On top of that, the ambassador who has the most booking referrals will receive a Nintendo Wii OR an all day photo shoot with up to 10 of their friends, with unlimited locations. The all-day shoot for the winner will include:
– A group fashion shoot to celebrate your friendships
OR a specialized shoot that focuses on your interests.
– A $30 print credit for each friend so they can order prints from the shoot
– A 12 month calendar for each person with photos from your session
– Images for posting on Facebook and Myspace
HOW:
First, if you think you’ve got what it takes, send me an email at photo@ctryan.com. I’ll send you an application. Fill it out and get it back to me ASAP.
Here are some tips for the most successful ambassadors:
– Bring your book everywhere and show it to everyone. If someone seems interested in booking, give them a referral card. Show your business cards every time you show your album.
– Myspace, Facebook and email your friends. Let your friends and classmates know what you’re doing! The most successful ambassadors will have made contact with their classmates through email or mail.
– Look to your friends and family to help you earn your portraits. Referrals can be for families, babies, children, seniors, maternity, engagement, weddings, modeling, or even pet photography. Every referral that books a session counts!
