SESSION & LOCATION GALLERIES
Keep in mind every location is photographed differently or similarly depending on the person that goes there and the outfits they bring - so yours would be tailored to your preferences and style. These are not ALL of the locations, this is just to give you a general example of some popular spots and the senior sessions/photos that resulted there.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
- When will the Senior Model program begin?
Your consultation / info meetings is in January/February and then we start right away with your first Model session in March! - When do senior sessions take place?
Not everyone may realize that senior photos typically take place during the Spring and Summer before Senior year begins. I encourage my models to take advantage of the great weather in June and July. I've found these months work the best for senior sessions! - If I want a Fall session, when should I book?
The earlier the better! If you wait too long, you might not get the season or the session you're looking for. The earlier you book, the more Liz can guarantee your session dates. For the Model Program, you must book by February to get all of the added benefits of the Model Program. - What does the Model Program all entail, whats involved?
Not only will you receive stunning senior photos, but you'll also have the opportunity to participate in sessions and events from the time you sign-up in Jan/Feb of Junior year until May of your Senior year. Starting with your sign-up, the first session is the Model Session. This shoot is 1 on 1, takes place in March, and is roughly 5-10 minutes long. All of theses sessions and benefits are free when you sign up as a model!
+ 1-on-1 Model Session to take place before your senior session as a warm up to being in front of the camera in March.
+ Themed sessions, aka "play sessions" this year we're doing a larger than life Parachute Dress session! You'll be able to wear the parachute dress and huge skirt at the beach while we let the wind take it and bring it to life! **Model favorite
+ BFF Session - you and 1 to 3 friends will have your own mini session! This takes place in April - you'll be given the date right away so you and your friends can block the day off in your calendars right away!
+ $150 Family Session in August - this is a way to get EVERYONE together before you go in different directions! This session has always been a fan favorite for Senior moms, dads, and grandparents. Its also completely optional. **Parent favorite

+ Be Featured in all of our 2022/2023 marketing - website, products, videos, social media and more.

+ Referral Program. Last but not least models receive referral credit to be put towards any print or product of their choice simply by asking their friends to name drop when they book their session. Not only will the model referring get credit, but so will their friends! Models that refer just one person by October 1st will also take part in our bonus session come November! - I'm involved in a lot of sports, extra curricular activities, and am saving money for school... what if I don't have enough time to come to the model sessions or events?
Honest answer - don't worry about it! There is only one mandatory photoshoot outside of your senior photo session, the model session. It helps me understand what your style is and to get any pre-photo jitters out! This session is designed to be super quick - about 5-10 minutes long - so that it doesn't interfere with your schedule as a huge time commitment. You're not required to come to anything else if you don't want to or are unable to! - Do you have a hair stylist or makeup artist that can style me for my senior session?
Yes! We are insanely fortunate to have the best hair stylist in the midwest. She's an international stylist and educator, Christina Gunderson, owner of The Do Hair Design. Christina travels the world teaching and applying her hairdressing skills to those in her field and can answer all of your hair questions! She's also one of the only people in our area certified in hair loss and hair regrowth which gives her even more edge!
Our go-to makeup artist is Jenna Hayes. Jenna is a freelance artist that's been honing their artistry and application skills for years. We've worked on countless sessions together over the last 7 years. Her focus is on beauty makeup, specifically applications for photoshoots and understanding how the makeup and the camera work collaboratively.
Hair and makeup makes a phenomenal difference, not just in how you look, but how you feel. It's a major confidence boost that you'll see reflected in your photos. Whether you go for full glam or a minimal, natural application, you're guaranteed to love it. - Is the senior model program for girls only?
Absolutely Not. The Model Program is for both guys and girls. There are more girls than guys, for a number of reasons, mainly because we've found senior girls just like having their photo taken more and more often, and like posting photos more often. We welcome everyone! We celebrate the individual. Whomever you are, we want you to feel like the star of the show, no matter what! - Do models have to look a specific way to join?
Absolutely Not. EVERYONE IS WELCOME. There are ZERO height, weight, gender, hair, or skin requirements whatsoever. We only ask that you're a good human. Might sound silly, but that's the only requirement. >>> Axe-murderers need not apply. - How many models are in the program?
LKPD takes on a maximum of 50 seniors in a given season - that's including models and 'regular' senior clients. Models receive bonus services and sessions so I like to keep about 20 models maximum. - Why do we offer a Model program?
Because everyone deserves to be the star of their own story - everyone deserves to feel beautiful/handsome, accomplished, confident, and celebrated.
We have so. many. ideas. Models get to be the first to try out new locations, poses, themes, and styles. The feedback they provide is priceless. If our makeup or hair stylists want to try a new look, style, we ask our models!
New poses, new locations? We approach our models first.
We use only the images the models love for our portfolios, websites, and social media - and you get access to ALL of these images. You'll never, ever miss a #SeniorSunday or an image to post on your blog, story, or instagram.
LKPD also works with local, national, and international designers and stylists. For girls interested in taking the senior model program farther into the world of modeling we know how to help build your portfolio, what local designers and stylists would be a great fit and how to get started. We also know HOW to do this safely. We can provide you with: headshots, comp cards, and contacts of folks in the industry. When you're an LKPD model, you have us in your corner, for as long as you'll have us. Most of my models keep in touch long after graduation. We build each other up and support one another, during and after high-school. - How much is a senior session?
Senior collections include BOTH your session and product. Models pay the same amount as 'regular' seniors but with the added benefits of free sessions for you, your family, and your friends for the next year and a half. Senior collections begin at $
