Welcome Class of 2018 Seniors! You made it!
This is your year! It’s your opportunity to make a statement! That’s why we hope you decide to join us as a Model Rep in ourSenior Pictures Ambassador Program!
Amber Shoemake is a local photographer and is currently seeking ambassadors from various schools in the Pike County area to act as model representatives. Throughout the year, you may see your images on marketing materials, social media and anything else where we think you would look great! Even so, the best part is you will receive credits to purchase prints for your own senior portraits when your friends book their own senior pictures session from your referrals in return.
Who is it for?
If you are currently a Junior or Senior, we want you! You can earn a free senior portrait photography session, prints, and products! All you have to do as a model is tell your friends about us. No, you don’t have to be a super model…just be an outgoing, fun-spirited person! Unfortunately, the Ambassador Search is only open for a number of select high schools. So, if you are interested in participating, please ask first to ensure reps are still being accepted from your school.
How do I enter?
It’s simple. Complete the entry application found on the website (link listed below). We will evaluate your application to see if you qualify and determine if we already have enough model reps from your school for your complimentary senior pictures session.
What do Ambassador model reps receive?
Top Ambassadors for Amber Shoemake(LS Photography) will receive a complimentary lifestyle photography session for their senior portraits. You’ll get free rep business cards to hand out to your classmates along with a spot on our website as a model showing off your images. When your referrals call us and book a senior session, you then earn credits towards prints of your images.
What is the credit system?
- For every senior referral booked earn $20 in print credits and afree social media profile image
The three (3) students with this highest number of bookings will also receive the following prizes:
- Third Place– $50 Visa/Mastercard Gift Card
- Second Place– $75 visa/Mastcard Gift Card
- First Place– $100 Visa/Mastercard Gift Card
The top three (3) students will be notified via email no later than December 1, 2017. The deadline for booking referrals to earn the prizes for first, second or third place is October 1, 2017.
NOTE: Students must refer a minimum of eight (8) bookings to be eligible to win the gift cards. In the event of a tie, the prize will go to the student that referred eight (8) bookings first.
Is there anything special I should know if I am chosen as an Ambassador?
