I will be accepting applications for all of the Wilkes County and surrounding high schools- Girls and Guys are both being accepted this year! Applications will be accepted until mid February and model sessions will take place in March and April! 

Our 2015 Model Team will be divided into three membership tiers, with a basic membership tier beginning at only $75.

 Exclusive Senior Model Guide

The benefits are AWESOME! 
now. let's talk responsibilities....
*Once your application has been approved you and a parent/guardian must attend a meeting regarding the Exclusive Senior Model program. 
-at this meeting we will discuss responsibilities and benefits in detail
-we will discuss the differences in the membership tiers
-you and your parent/guardian will select a tier and make your investment

*You must promote Love it Forever Photography with passion. I want seniors who love my fun, fashion forward, modern style of photography.  

*You will be required to send a detailed review upon seeing the sneak peaks from your session.
*Hand out your model cards and talk about the amazing experience you had at your photo shoot. Spread the word!
*Make one of your sneak peaks your profile or cover photo for a minimum of one week.

*You must follow Love if Forever Photography on Facebook,Instagram, Twitter, and Pinterest. The best Senior Models will actively share Love it Forever Photography on social media networks. 
NO FILTERS PLEASE! 

*You must join our Exclusive Model Group on Facebook. I will send you an invite after the Model Meeting. This will be a great way for us to communicate- I will  also use this group for special promotions, commercial modeling opportunities as well as contests and chances to win special prizes.

*You MUST sign a model release form- there is a good chance your photographs will be featured online or in print- and a model release will be required of all models. 

*You may only represent Love it Forever Photography- If you represent another photographer as a Senior Rep/Model you will be removed without a refund of membership fees.
*You must always show a positive attitude. I absolutely will not have my business represented by a Model with a bad attitude or who treats others poorly- I retain the right to remove any model upon confirmation of bad behavior without a refund of membership fees.

*You must get to know me :) and help me better my Senior Model program. We will chat regularly during your time as a Senior Model- you will even have a hand in helping me select the Class of 2016 Exclusive Models.

*Once your portraits are completed you and a parent/guardian must take part in the Premier Ordering Session. This is so Senior Models are knowledgeable about the entire Love it Forever Photography Senior Portrait process.

Love Session at a Christmas Tree Farm | North Carolina Wedding Photographer

I'm not sure I could be any more in love with this session!!
Jessica and her husband were in town for a mini vacation, so they decided to come out for my Christmas mini sessions that were held at Bickerstaff Trees located in Sparta, NC. 
Bickerstaff Trees is a beautiful choose and cut tree farm located about 2.5 miles past The Blue Ridge Parkway on Macedonia Church Rd. These two took this opportunity to choose their very own tree to take home from their vacation! I can't think of a better way to do it! 

Below are some of my favorites from their adorable session!
