CLASS OF 2027... It's your turn!

(Applications close Friday, May 1st at 11:59PM)

Thank you so much for your interest in being part of this experience. The KJP Senior Team is about more than senior photos—it’s about confidence, connection, and celebrating who you are during one of the most meaningful years of your life.

Below you’ll find the application to apply for the KJP Senior Team. Take your time, be yourself, and share why you’d love to be part of Northern Indiana’s premier senior portrait experience and team-based program.

BEFORE YOU START

This application is your chance to really share you.

I highly recommend typing your longer answers in a Word document (or Notes app) first, then copying and pasting them into the application. It’s easier to edit, think through your answers, and truly show your personality that way.

Please complete this application on a computer or mobile web browser—not inside Instagram or another social app—to make sure everything submits correctly.

Take your time. Be honest. Be yourself.

Why Katrina Jackson Photography?
I believe senior portraits should feel like you—not forced, not trendy for the sake of trends, and never one-size-fits-all.

This experience is about confidence, connection, and celebrating who you are in this season of life. You deserve more than just pretty photos. You deserve to feel seen, empowered, and proud of yourself when you look back on this year.

My promise is to give you a senior experience that is thoughtful, elevated, and unforgettable—from the first conversation to the final images your family treasures forever.

THE APPLICATION PROCESS

This application is the first step.

After applications close, a select group of seniors will move on to a second round, which includes:

  • Additional interview questions
  • A Parent/Senior meeting (via Zoom or in person)

If selected for this round, you and your parent(s) will attend a meeting on May 2nd 31st or May 4th. During this time, I’ll walk through what it truly means to be part of the KJP Senior Team and answer all questions together.

Submitting this application does not automatically mean you are on the team. Attendance at the Parent/Senior meeting is required for final consideration.

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU?

The KJP Senior Team is more than photos—it’s an experience, a community, and a year you’ll never forget.

As a team member, you’ll receive access to opportunities and experiences not available to regular KJP seniors, all while forming real connections with other like-minded girls.

Senior Team Perks Include:

  • Exclusive group photoshoots throughout the year
  • Opportunities for destination photoshoots
  • The official KJP Girl Gang tee—team only
  • A custom iPhone app featuring your group images
  • Consideration for the 2027 KJP Senior Magazine cover
  • Opportunities to earn cash and bonus KJP experiences
  • Priority scheduling for your senior session (yes—this helps us avoid bad weather!)

This is about belonging, confidence, and being part of something meaningful during your senior year.

THE DETAILS

  • Applications close Friday, May 1st at 11:59 PM
  • Must be a member of the Class of 2027
  • Must represent Katrina Jackson Photography exclusively
  • Must attend the Parent/Senior zoom meeting if selected

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Does it cost anything to be on the Senior Team?
There is no additional fee to be on the team. However, you must choose Katrina Jackson Photography as your senior photographer. A variety of collections are available to accommodate different needs and budgets.

When will I hear back?

How long should my answers be?
There’s no perfect length—but thoughtful, detailed answers help me truly get to know you. Short answers can make it harder to stand out.

How many seniors are chosen?
The size of the team varies each year. My goal is to keep it small enough that everyone feels connected, supported, and genuinely part of the group.
