POWER TEAM
Power Team, my high school senior model program, is all about community, friendships, and empowerment! It is a unique model rep program because there are no lists of tasks, requirements, or quotas for my Power Team. Power Team is an experience for senior girls that will elevate their senior year even more, AND it's full of perks and benefits that only Power Team members receive!
My Power Team is about helping to build confident and strong individuals...it's about YOU!
Power Team is for the Senior who:
-
KNOWS she wants her senior portraits taken by Angie Read Photography.
-
ENJOYS being in front of a camera and having fun mini sessions.
-
LOVES socializing and building friendships with girls from other high schools through meet ups, mini sessions or community service events.
-
IS COMMITTED to helping out in the community, improving someone else's life, and enriching their own.
It will be an amazing experience that will make senior year the BEST it can be!
The financial requirement for a Power Team member is a $250 sign on fee, to be paid upon commitment to the team, along with a signed contract. There is also a $800 minimum purchase requirement of beautiful photo products that will be chosen during the Reveal and Order session, which follows the senior portrait session.
The biggest difference between a Power Team member and a regular senior client are the PERKS and OPPORTUNITIES!

"My experience with Angie's team of seniors has been excellent. I love being able to take pictures with old friends and new friends; also, being able to volunteer with them brings me joy. The best part of being on Angie's team is how much effort she puts in. She spends so much time finding places for us to take pictures, getting us partnerships, and helping us feel comfortable. She also gives us her all when taking pictures and also editing them."

Project Beauty with Power Team '22

Project Beauty
My last mini session theme with my Power Team '22 was Project Beauty. Project Beauty is a movement within the senior photography industry, started by a photographer in my hometown of Cincinnati, Thomas Nguyen. The purpose of this theme is to remove the stigmas of "beauty" that society and social media have imposed, and instead let beauty radiate from within our heart and soul. There is no makeup, no fancy hair, and no editing out imperfections. Being your raw self in front of a camera can no doubt be intimidating for anyone, but especially for high school girls.
My model team votes on which mini session themes we do throughout our year together, and I have to honestly say that I was surprised this one ranked high on their list. But when I reflect on the type of girls that are on my team, then it really does make sense. They ALL have hearts of gold, are independent, and have the confidence in themselves to go make up free in front of the camera.
