Meet Emily.  Another one of my AMAZING senior models! So for those of you that were wondering, I did not take a fan out to the shoot to give her the “cover girl” look, it was a windy day.  I wasn’t sure if we were going to get through her shoot because we had some pretty high winds and had to wait here & there for it to calm down.  But I LOVE the way the photos turned out.  That wind was a blessing in disguise.  Enjoy Part 1 of her High School Senior Photos!


Can you tell I LOVED her last outfit..

I can’t even express how much fun I had the day of Cheyenne’s senior shoot.  We drove out to Nelson to do the first part of her Senior Model shoot, the second part of her shoot will be at the dry lake bed and I can’t wait!!  She has the most amazing eyes and she was loving the camera.

As some of you know I have been so crazy busy with shoots lately.  So I apologize for being a little behind on blogging everyone.  I should be caught up by next week.  So here are a few wonderful images from her high school senior session…

I Heart Faces {Wind}

April 17, 2011

Wind can be such a beautiful thing.  A slight breeze on a summer day is a blessing.  But 25 mile an hour winds can be disastrous during a photo shoot.  That is the theme for this week’s I Heart Faces challenge: WIND.

When I look at this photo I think how lucky I was to have gotten that small breeze as she held on tightly to her bible.  It is almost as though you can feel what she is feeling at that very moment. This photo evokes such strong feelings within me.  I am reminded of a time when I was in high school, I felt deeply lost and alone.  If it weren’t for good friends and my faith I would not have been able to overcome my struggles.

Even though I am not the one in the photograph, looking at it provides me with peace and comfort.

Shadows can be lots of fun! (specially shadow puppets!)  This image I am entering was from a high school senior session that I did a while back.  We were in downtown Las Vegas and found this cool alley.  Enjoy!

I am beyond excited to announce our new Senior Model Program for the Class of 2012!  I’ve worked really hard on putting this program together and I can’t wait to get started!  I LOVE photographing high school seniors because they are so full of life and fun to be around.  Not to mention all the cool urban locations and accessories I get to play with!! Don’t worry, I am still going to photograph newborns & children, I heart them too!  Seniors are my outlet for more fashion inspired shoots. :)

So how do I get ready for the High School Senior Season? By hiring some awesome High School Juniors to be my little promoters!

Applications are now being accepted.  See the end of this blog post to apply today. Last day to apply is Sunday, March 27th at 11:59PM.
And a big special hug and thanks to Holly Nicholson who is one of my new photog friends that I heart so much!!!  If she lived in Las Vegas we would be hanging out all the time!  She gave me such great tips/ideas for the Model Program, girl you made my life way easier.  Thank You!

WHAT IS A SENIOR MODEL?
This is a great opportunity to be a “Trend Setter” in your school.  Our program is very popular and exclusive. We will only be choosing two current High School Juniors from each school to represent Wendhy Jeffers Photography at his or her school.  Being a Senior Model is like having a part time job, but way cooler!  Your job will be to promote our studio and encourage your friends to look into Wendhy Jeffers Photography for Artistic, Fun, Unique, & Edgy Senior Portraits. You’ll earn a $25 print credit for each senior you refer and all sorts of rewards (photo montages, senior movies, iPods, gift cards, and more).  All you have to do is hand out your model cards and show off your fabulous photos!

WHAT IS IN IT FOR ME?
  • You’ll be treated like a ROCKSTAR!
  • You’ll be FAMOUS! Your photos will be all over my site, blog, facebook, and marketing materials!
  • FREE modeling session in April!
  • FREE facebook images!
  • 50 Modeling Cards to hand out to other seniors.  The modeling card features your photos and a coupon for your friends to redeem.
  • The TOP MODEL gets an additional photo shoot with your best friends at the end of the school year and a GRAND PRIZE!
WHAT ARE THE RULES OF THE MODELING PROGRAM?
  • Having your parent’s permission is a MUST!  Make sure to discuss the program with your parents before you apply.
  • If you are chosen to be one of our exclusive senior models you must agree to ONLY represent and promote Wendhy Jeffers Photography for the duration of your senior year, and you may not be photographed by other professional photographers.  (Exception: required yearbook or team sports photos)
  • You must agree to keep your Facebook profile picture set to one of your Wendhy Jeffers Photography images through October 31st of your senior year.
  • If you are under 18, your parents must sign a model release form.
  • If you are chosen to be a senior model you will be required to pay a $100 deposit (due before your modeling shoot).  Once you refer four seniors to Wendhy Jeffers Photography your $100 deposit turns into a print credit (this credit is on top of the credit you will earn for each referral!!!)
  • And most importantly, have a blast! This will probably be the easiest & coolest part time job you’ll ever have! ?
THIS IS SO COOL!! HOW DO I APPLY?
All you have to do is fill out our online application. (located at the end of this blog post) I will be accepting model applications from March 16th through the 27th.  The chosen models will be notified by April 1st. Choosing my senior models will be hard because I would love to choose everyone.  But if you are not chosen as one of our models do not worry, we will have a special bonus for you as a Thank You for taking the time to apply.  And please do not take it personally if you are not chosen, I know you are pretty awesome! Thank you sooooooo much for showing interest in our model program.
 

WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR IN A SENIOR MODEL? DO I HAVE TO BE DROP DEAD GORGEOUS?

 

No, of course not!  You are all beautiful just the way you are!  I am looking for juniors who are enthusiastic, outgoing, honest, and value my unique style of photography!  You do not have to be the “model size.”  I want to work with high school seniors who aren’t afraid to show off their model photos.  This really is like a part time job.  You need to be committed to the Model Program and show off those gorgeous photos to everyone you know!

After you hit the SUBMIT BUTTON you will get a message that says: Success! You’ve filled out the form! And that is how you know I have received it :)

 

I have been working on my senior site for a really long time (on top of other projects) and I never thought I would finish it.  Well it is finally here! Along with a new cover page! I hope you guys like it! It feels like me every time I look at it.  I know silly me! Well here is what the cover page looks like when you go to www.wendhyjeffers.com

I Heart Faces {Sun Flare}

March 13, 2011

Meet my beautiful and amazing personal assistant, Shaylee.  She has been working with me for about 3 months and has made my life so much easier.  She is so fun to be around! Not to mention that she is one of the nicest people I have ever met!  We have definitely become great friends :)

We took a little break one day and went outside for about 10 minutes so that I could mess around with some different lighting.  I didn’t used to shoot in full sun or play around with sun flare too much since I do a lot of studio work.  But now that I have gotten the opportunity to shoot in full sun I am loving it!  Can’t wait to play some more  and continue to grow as a photographer :)

Oh how I love this photo!  Shaylee graduated high school last year and I think this photo captures her next stage in life: turning into a beautiful young woman.

Connor | High School Senior

February 19, 2011

This mini shoot was a lot of fun.  Connor is definitely going to go far in life, he is very involved in extra curricular activities at his school.  Plus, he really cares about his family and friends.  Thanks for letting me photograph you! :)

Something about his style/look made we want to go a little vintage

I can’t believe a new school year has begun and a new graduating class is on its way.  Meet Emily.  She was a lot of fun to photograph, not to mention cute style!  I am glad we were able to survive the winds :)

I don’t even know where to begin.  I guess at the beginning would make most sense.  I had spoken to Shaylee over the phone once or twice before the shoot to go over some details, but I had not met her in person.  I was a little nervous since I prefer to meet ahead of time so that I may get to know them and get a better idea of what will work best for their photos.  When I met her at our shoot for the first time, we totally hit it off and quickly became friends.  The best way to describe Shaylee would be ONE OF A KIND.  I was just blown away by her fun, uplifting, sweet, and sincere HEART.  I hope that you feel & see what I saw that day…(its a big share, I just could not narrow it down)

I’ve been working on a few different editing techniques for my “sweet vintage” look and I finally created the perfect recipe.  I call this editing technique “SweetShay”

THANK YOU for letting me capture who you are…
