Senior Ambassador Program
My senior ambassador program is one of the most exciting and memorable experiences I have as a photographer every year. For each senior class, I select a few seniors from different schools in VA and WV to be a part of a team that gets to bond throughout their senior year, while also having the best senior photo experience I can offer and representing my business!
Being an Amaze Ambassador is SO much more than just senior photos!
"I’m so glad I decided to sign up to be a senior ambassador for you! Probably the best decision I made for my senior year. I’ve loved every single one of my pictures you’ve taken, and the sessions are also a lot of fun too!! You’re just a fun person to be around and so kind. You make everyone’s pictures look unique in some way and get so creative during the sessions!"
- ShyAnna, Amaze Ambassador Class of 2022
The Amaze Ambassador Experience
I began my senior ambassador program in 2016 - my senior year of high school - because I knew that taking senior photos for my friends could be fun and beneficial in growing my business! I can honestly say I wasn't sure if it would be something that would be a success, as I can't guarantee success in any aspect of my business, but I decided to accept applications again the following year and each year since my team has grown and been so successful and fun! In the past four years, I'm happy to say that I now have team members in TWO states and I have had members from over TEN schools!
When you become an Amaze Ambassador, you're signing on for a year full of activities, photoshoots, team dinners, and so much more fun!
So let's talk about how it all works...
Applications open on March 1st of every year and stay open until March 15th. I will have more details about applying further down this page.
If you are selected, you will be notified by me and we will get started on our year together!
The summer before your senior year all of the ambassadors will get together for a meet and greet, where we will all meet up and do some group and individual photos.
You will also get to select your date for your own individual session, and I have 3 package options you can choose from.
Throughout the year we will have the opportunity for different team activities together. I do different things each year but in the past we have done dinners, cookouts, Secret Santa, and even pool parties!
In May, we will meet together as a team again for your cap and gown and/or college acceptance photos.
This is just a small rundown of what your year is like as an ambassador - I wouldn't want to include every aspect and leave no room for surprises!
At this point you are probably thinking to yourself...
"that sounds like fun Autumn, but what do I have to do?"
This is the easy part!
As an Amaze Ambassador, you pay one time for your individual session, but you receive a minimum of three sessions and gifts!
You have to have your parent/guardian give you permission to be on the team and agree to only use/represent my business throughout the year.
Your "job" is to tell people about me! Talk about your experience as an Amaze Ambassador, post your photos, hand out discount cards, read and share your very own feature on my blog, and truly take part and have fun in the things we do throughout the year.
The #1 priority I have for my ambassadors each year is to love your ambassador team well, have fun, and be a good and positive representative of my business!
Ready to join the team? Applications for my Class of 2027 Ambassador Program are open NOW! Request an application here.
