It's your senior year; you have made it at last. This last year is yours to celebrate and it should be one to remember. Everything, including your senior pictures should be a memory that means a lot to you. Our goal is to give you an incredible experience, as well as incredible pictures. When you work with us, you can expect the attention you deserve. From providing in person pre-consultations to professional hair and makeup, we work hard to create inividualized sessions that go above and beyond your expectations. We understand how important your senior photos are, which is why we produce nothing but the best!
We love capturing stories and personalities. Every person we get the opportunity to work with is truly unique. Not only are our sessions about creating beautiful pictures, they are about documenting this pivotal time in your life. Seniors have their futures on their minds. Their heads are ďŹ lled with dreams and the excitement of taking the next steps in life. We look to capture this time in a unique and lasting way. We oer images from traditional to modern, laughing to serious, and eveything in-between. We strive to show these emotions and individual personalities.
Model We are looking for fun, outgoing, and creative seniors to represent us. If you like being in front of the camera and want a nice discount on your senior photos, then you could be our next Senior Model!

Senior Models are students who represent our photography in exchange for special perks! We really go all out for our Models by providing additional photo shoots, hair styling and makeup. On top of all that, Models have the ability to earn extra discounted photo sessions and credits toward the cost of their own printed portraits. There are even more perks to be earned by referring friends and classmates to us for their senior portraits. Models can earn prizes, cash and even additional photo credit. It’s a great opportunity and we have a lot of fun!
Model Cont... All the Perks!
Senior Model Photo Session After you have been accepted into the program, you automatically earn a Senior Model Session. This is a full-fledged session and includes professional hair and makeup. From this one hour photo shoot we select the best images and use those to create the materials that you will use throughout the upcoming school year as a model. Double-Sided Model Cards After your first photo session, we will use our favorite images to create twosided cards that specifically feature you! They are an awesome way to impress your friends. These are for you to hand out to friends and classmates, and they will have a reference code that tracks sales back to you. This is important because the more references you get, the more perks you can earn! 10 Digital Files From the Senior Model Session you will receive 10 professionally retouched digital files. You will also receive a customized Facebook timeline cover photo and a collection of images specifically for Instagram! These are great tools for gaining referrals.
Model Cont... All the Perks!
Personalized Gallery and Phone App Not only will you receive 10 digital files from the Senior Session, we will host them for you in a personalized app that you can download to your phone. The app allows you to share the images directly from your phone into almost any social media. Through this process we also create a personalized online gallery. You can send this link to your family and friends and use it as another great way to earn referrals. 30% Print and Product Discount After your first referral books and pays for their session, you will then receive 30% off our entire a la carte print menu until May 31, 2016 (with a minimum purchase each time you order). Please note, however, that this discount cannot be applied to any of our collections as they are already discounted considerably.
Model Referrals

Every Three Referrals For every three referrals a Model sends to Matt Erickson Photography, the model and their parents will recieve a gift. Mom and Dad will recieve $50 gift credit with our company and the rep will recieve cash (by way of a $50 Visa gift card). The gift credit can be applied toward additional portrait sessions or prints and other products. You should know, our gift credit applies on top of the 30% discount! Seven Referrals After sending seven paid referrals the Model will earn a Best Friend Photo Session. This is a photo session styled around the Model and one friend. The perk includes the session fee, hair and makeup for both teens, and ten digital files. Prints, additional files, and other products can be purchased with the 30% Model discount. Ten Referrals We are excited to offer a Prom Mini Session to our Models that provide 10 referrals by December 31st. This perk includes the session fee, professional hair and makeup, and 10 digital files. The session is to be held on a non-prom evening so that we can relax, have fun, and make some fantastic images. Prints, additionals files, and other products can be purchased with the 30% Model discount. Please Note: A “referral” is a client that provides your Model code when they book their session, signs a contract and pays a non-refundable retainer.

Start by getting plenty of sleep the night before, as tired eyes and lack of sleep will show up in the final images. On the day of your portrait session, be sure to apply your makeup the same way you would on any other day. It’s usually not a good idea to try out something new right before having your pictures taken. We want your images to be a true reflection of you! We will meet before your session to go over your outfit ideas. It is very important to us that you look and feel your best and we can help with that! We will work with you to select a wardrobe that can be coordinated together easily (for example, pants that look good with two or three different shirts, etc.). Watch out for straps that might be hanging out. And of course, be careful not to wear dark colored undergarments with light colored shirts or you might be surprised what shows up in the final photographs.
Get ready for the portrait session like you’re planning to meet someone for a big date. Our goal is to make you look awesome, and that means you have a key role to play in the process. Consider getting your usual haircut a few days before the session. Make sure you get plenty of sleep the night before, because tired eyes don’t look good in photographs. On the day of the session, be certain to shower, shave and really fix your hair.We want these pictures to look great, but most importantly, they should be a reflection of you. We will work with you to plan what you should wear for your session. If you are involved in a sport or activity, bring props to show it! Don’t be afraid to offer suggestions, we are willing to get as creative as you would like. These pictures are something you will show to your friends and family, so they should be pictures that you love!
