Seniority Magazine : A Magazine for Teens

Personal / News

No Comments

If you have been following my facebook page you would know that I just launched my own studio magazine this week named SENIORITY. What is SENIORITY magazine all about exactly? It is basically a magazine geared for teenagers to get fun information such as hair & fashion tips and see some great photo inspiration for their future portrait sessions.

I also wanted to throw in the advantages of choosing a professional boutique photographer who can customize the experience based on the person to create long lasting memories that are unique. I not only want my photography to stand out from the crowd but I also want people who hire me have their images stand out from all the rest.

I want this magazine also to be a source of inspiration, encouragement, and promote positive messages for teens that are not centered around lots of the values our society tends to promote. I want to accomplish this by allowing teens to submit stories that can be included in the magazine that talk about success, triumph, hard work, or anything they have done to make a mark in the world. If you are a teen and would like to submit a story or know someone who you can recommend please fill out the contact form above and let me know the details.

This first issue I released was a mini-issue and the summer should be my first full issue release. I am excited about this project and I got lots of ideas and dreams for the future. I truly hope it can be a great source of information for anyone who reads it. Thanks so much for the support and compliments so far. I look forward to the future. If you haven’t had a chance to read the magazine you can click the picture below to be taken to the digital online version!

Also, if you are a hair stylist, make-up artist, florist, clothing boutique and would like to partner up with the magazine I would LOVE to hear from you. We can discuss getting you into an article and/or advertising opportunities!

Senior Prom Test Shoot

Senior

No Comments

This whole concept came one day to me from an ad I saw from BHLDN. It inspired me to want to do something creative from teens on their prom night. We are all used to the standard backdrops you see at prom but I wanted to take it one step further. Why not make prom a night to really show off your tux or your special dress. Why can’t prom be a night to have a little fashion-inspired photo shoot, you already look fabulous! So I got some wonderful teens together and asked them to bring their prom dresses and we had some fun on this custom created backdrop. Now I can probably only take 10% of the credit for how awesome the backdrop looks. I need to give a huge thanks to Vanessa Warren of butterflyspArks for creating all the paper pieces and a bigger thanks to my wife Jessica for putting all these pieces together in a visually appealing way. My wonderful friend Ashley Kirk of Ashlilium create all the beautiful corsages for this shoot. If you need any awesome bouquets or corsages for your special day, please be sure to give her a shout! I also had a great make up artist and fellow photographer friend named Rabiah come out to help make these girls look beautiful, thank you so much for lending your skills! Finally, I want to thank my wonderful models Maegan, Lexi, Ashtyn, and Gemma. You all rocked it out!

So what is next? Well I just didn’t want to create this test shoot for nothing, I want to actually give teens the chance to use this on their prom night. So I am renting a studio in Mesquite and asking teens before their prom night begins to stop by for 10 minutes with their date for a quick session. It will only cost $20 per person and they will walk away with two 5×7′s and the rest of the images will be placed on facebook later that night to share with friends. I want to make this backdrop exclusive, so it will only be available this year and only 20 couples from each high school will be allowed. If you are interested in having this on your high school prom night just fill out the contact form above and let me know your high school and the time you prefer between 4:30-6:30 p.m. Spots will fill up fast, especially for Sunnyvale High School, so make sure you contact me soon!
