2026 VIP TEAM
APPLICATIONS ARE OPEN
〰️
APPLICATIONS ARE OPEN 〰️
What is it?
It’s a small group of hand selected high school seniors (and one or two juniors) who represent SLSENIORS for the entire school year. Each VIP member will receive a summer mini session, a full senior portrait session in the spring or fall, one Dance Group or a Ride or Die session- and they’ll get invited to participate in photo shoots/small projects throughout the school year. I’ve made a few changes from my previous teams and I’m excited for this upcoming class!
And because I know senior year can get insanely busy, I keep everything pretty relaxed so that you’re not stressed out with any of the activities I have planned. All VIP Team Members are invited to do the smaller photo projects/activities but you’re not required to participate if your schedule doesn’t allow it.
I’m looking for people who love photos and appreciate authenticity. I don’t necessarily need the most popular or most outgoing. I view my VIP Team as an extension of what my photography is about, so it’s important for me to work with the right people- the athletes, the artists, the philanthropics, the extroverts, the introverts, etc. I want all of the personalities!
What are the requirements?
VIP Team Members can only represent Sheryll Lynne Photographer / SLSENIORS. VIP Team Members cannot represent or promote other photography businesses until graduation. This includes sharing any work from other photographers on your instagram stories.
We do need to follow each other on Instagram.
Your Instagram bio needs to have “@SLSENIORS VIP TEAM” somewhere in the first 3 lines and a pinned Instagram post of at least one of your SLSENIORS photos (taken at your summer mini session).
I do not support any kind of negativity online and offline. Be cool and be kind. Don’t be a bully. And please don’t do anything illegal in general.
If you’re under 18 I do need your parent/guardian to sign off and fill out the Model Release Form.
Breaking any of these rules before your graduation date will result in removal from the program as it would be a violation of the Terms and Agreement in the VIP TEAM CONTRACT.
What are the vip team perks?
EVERY SELECTED VIP TEAM MEMBER AUTOMATICALLY RECEIVES
One Summer Mini Session.
One Full Senior Session in the Fall or Spring (includes the Digital Files package).
One Dance Group (Prom, Homecoming, Sweethearts, etc) OR one Ride or Die Session.
Exclusive invitations to upcoming photo shoots/projects.
** Class of 2027 VIP Team Members will receive the same perks and invitations to projects that are geared towards the Class of 2027 graduating class.
Does it cost anything to be on the team?
Submitting an application is free. Applicants will go through an interview process on Facetime/Zoom, and if you’re offered a VIP position there will be a small fee of $100.. That is the ONLY fee you will be required to pay to be a part of the team and receive all the perks! As a VIP Member you’ll be receiving a full Portrait Session and the digital files which alone saves you $800! You’ll also receive a mini session in the summer, and only my Senior VIP TEAM will have access to book me for a Dance Group (Homecoming/Prom/Sweethearts) at no cost, OR you can gather up your besties for a Ride or Die Session instead.
