1-2 selected students from each high school in the area each year.

Honestly, we're pretty open to traveling. Historically, our photoshoots have been near Hampshire, Burlington Central, Huntley and Marengo. However, come one come all from Chicago to any of the surrounding areas. Come on Algonquin, Schaumburg, Lake in the Hills, Geneva, Batavia, Barrington, and Elgin. We see you, we are here for you too!

1. Three photoshoots for the price of one. (Think different outfits! Locations! Seasons! Activities!) This provides professional photos to fully document your whole year. Yes, this mean models may also have the chance to have a professional photographer come to their sporting or extracurricular event and focus on them. ALSO, this means models may also have the chance to do a photoshoot in a premiere location, like the river, and therefore end up with incredibly unique images that look incredible once printed in a fine art form (think large metal, wood or canvas prints/collages!).
2. To be clear, you will receive 45-60 remastered, digital images for the price of 15. After being selected as a model, SarahSam would contact you to work out the specifics about packages, pricing, the total number of images, locations, etc.
3. The option to have your booking fee waived based on referrals of your friends to SarahSam Photography.
4. The opportunity to make new friends at group photoshoots and events.
5. Each selected model will be allowed to bring ONE friend to each shoot. The caveat being that the number of photos will be set based on the options secured by the selected model, and therefore that model has the final say on which images are chosen. The friend will not be guaranteed images directly from SarahSam Photography, as their selections would be solely up to the discretion of the model/model guardian.
6. A free logo t-shirt.
7. A set of business cards with your photo on them to distribute throughout the year.

First of all, this is a come one, come all opportunity, so long as you are a high school student with the ability to post on social media. We definitely love kids of all ages, families and pets, but this particular opportunity is exclusive to high school students.

1. Meet up for photoshoots three times a year. These sessions may be coordinated with models from other schools and/or they may happen privately. Time and weather will be the driving factors in these decisions.
2. I'm asking models to post, at least, 2 times a month on social media about their experience with SarahSam Photography, and/or share photos from their photoshoots. Essentially, spread the word!
3. Hand out provided business cards throughout the year.

We LOVE this entire community at large! We simply want to expand our portfolio to reach even more people in the surrounding areas. We believe in storytelling, and we value your story, your experience, your special moments in time. We want to help you commemorate, celebrate and preserve. Honestly, you are beautiful, let us show you.

Grab your parent or legal guardian and apply using the MODEL APPLICATION button found above or below. If you're accepted, we'll reach out to you with next steps for planning your photoshoots, and we'll send a questionnaire to better get to know you and your interests. We'll also extend the invitation to meet up with you face-to-face so we can plan and prepare.
