A Senior Shoot Giveaway

Written by cindyc on January 28, 2009 -

There’s just something about seniors.

Mostly, it’s the interesting and emotional transformation from childhood to adulthood.  It’s also the frenzy of activities.  Homecoming, prom, crosstown games, yearbook, debate, finals, SATs, college applications.  There’s so much to do, but even more to look forward to.

Because of this…seniors have become one of my favorite subjects to photograph.

Over the last couple of years, I’ve met dozens of seniors who’ve each amazed with me with their unique qualities.  I’ve admired the seniors who do not get wrapped up in gossiping, making fun of others and other naughty things.  I look up to seniors who care about their family, their community, their studies, politics, culture, current events, and - most of all - want to make a positive impact.

I bet you know a senior like this.  You know a senior who volunteers during their free time.  You know a senior who plays music at church every Sunday.  You know a senior who has overcome tragedy.  You know a senior who has a physical disability and does not feel comfortable in a traditional studio setting.  You know a senior who deserves a photo session to express themselves, but does not have the financial means to do it.

I want to know who these seniors are because I’m going to give one deserving senior a complimentary custom photography package worth $1,000!  I would love to take more seniors, but I’m booked with sessions until October.  That means I’m booking one more senior session and I can’t imagine a better way to do it!

THE RULES:

* You cannot nominate yourself.

* The nominee must sincerely be incapable of purchasing my services.

* The nominee must be graduating in the Class of 2010.

*The nominee must live in the Great Falls-area.

* Email me the details at cindy@cindycieluch.com.  I want to know all about the senior you’re nominating.  I want to know who they are, what they’re experiencing and why they deserve a custom photography experience!  Please try to keep your nomination letter at 2 pages or less.

THE DEADLINE IS MARCH 1.

THE WINNER WILL BE ANNOUNCED APRIL 1.

Look for these posters around town!  Happy nominating!
