Class of 2026 Senior Collective

1. Program Overview​

 

What is the Senior Collective?

​

The Senior Collective with Lyndsie Smith is a small, curated group of high school seniors invited to take part in a creative portrait experience throughout their senior year. Members receive an individual senior session, a collaborative styled shoot, and early access to booking, while participating in the artistic process behind the work.

 

This is not an influencer program. It’s a creative club...rooted in connection, thoughtful storytelling, and celebrating this once-in-a-lifetime season with intention.

​

​

2. Who This Is For​​

​

You may be a great fit if you:​

• Are part of the Class of 2026

• Appreciate photography, art, and creative expression

• Enjoy being part of a small, intentional group

• Are curious about the portrait process and collaboration

• Want senior photos that feel natural, confident, and timeless

​

No modeling experience required.

​

3. What’s Included

 

Each Senior Collective member receives:

​

• One full individual senior portrait session with Lyndsie Smith

• One collaborative styled group shoot in the late spring
  (This shoot is for Senior Collective members only to collaborate artistically on a unified vision. Artistic ideas we may explore: wind & motion, studio portraits with strong contrast...maybe the collective has a "Stranger Things" vibe they want to go for, maybe we go totally glam but with an athletic twist...who knows...the idea of this shoot is to allow the students to be a part of the creative process, and I will help them achieve the end vision!)

• Priority scheduling

• 20% off a Regular Family Session in 2026*

• Access to exclusive locations and styling guidance

• Referral rewards for each booked friend

• A welcoming, relaxed, and creatively supportive environment

 

Members receive a full gallery of professionally edited images to download and share.

​

* Must be completed in the same year. Discount does not roll over to the following year.
