GBC First Ever Creator Team
Join the GBC Creator Team!
Be The Face. Tell the Story. Join the Movement.
In 2022, I restructured my photography business to create a more personalized, full-service experience. Rather than just showing up on session day and handing over digital files, I guide my clients through the entire process—from planning their session to helping them choose the perfect artwork to enjoy for years to come.
I made this change after seeing how often clients felt overwhelmed or never got around to printing their favorite images. Since shifting my approach, the response has been incredible. It’s reinforced exactly why I do things differently. While I may not be the cheapest photographer around, I’ve poured my heart into making this a stress-free, joy-filled experience that helps you walk away with more than just photos—real memories and meaningful keepsakes.
As my business continues to grow, I’m beyond excited to launch something brand new—my very first Creator Team! This isn’t your typical senior rep program. It’s a chance to connect with other juniors and seniors, go on fun photo adventures, give back to the community, and be part of something truly special.
As a Creator Team member, you’re more than just a senior—you’re the face of my brand! In exchange for your creativity, positivity, and participation, you’ll enjoy VIP photo opportunities, behind-the-scenes access, and exciting perks to help you celebrate your senior year in an unforgettable way.
Look what it entails!
Opportunity to participate in at least one volunteer event and additional group portrait sessions (approximately 6-8 planned over the next 14 months). Details are subject to change based on group input, but are currently planned to include a variety such as:
Spring Waterfall/Nature Hike
County Fairgrounds/Festival
Sunflower Field or Rose Garden
Pumpkin Patch and Apple Orchard
Holiday Party
College T-shirt or Cap and Gown
Includes watermarked social media sized images from each session for sharing online (printing rights and full resolution files available for purchase)
Entrance fees (when applicable) are covered for you
The sooner you join, the more opportunities you have to participate.

What Do Ambassadors have to Do?
Creator Team Expectations
Creators are part of a team that represent what it is like to work with Giftbox Creations Photography. This involves creating content for social media and marketing as well as maintaining a positive image while acting as a role model for underclassmen. I encourage everyone to share the images from each creative session, however; there is no minimum number of shares or referrals required. I do ask each team member to capture and create behind the scenes video and marketing content that I can share. There are also opportunities to earn product credit and other incentives.
As a representative of my brand, it is important to act in a respectful manner and to demonstrate the following core values:
Respect – Be kind and professional in words and actions. Avoid offensive language or content.
Health & Well-Being – Live substance-free and strive for balance in physical, mental, and emotional health.
Community – Give back through volunteering, mentoring, and being a responsible citizen.
Discipline – Stay committed to academics, work towards graduation, and maintain passing grades.
Trust – Keep shared information private and respect confidentiality.
FAQs
Do I have to attend all Group sessions?
No. While attendance is encouraged to get the most out of the program, I realize this is not always possible. I try my best to notify you ahead of time for group sessions so that you can plan accordingly. Missing a session will not affect your ability to participate in future ones. However, refunds will not be given for missed sessions.
Can I buy all the images from the Group Sessions?
Of course! You’ll have the option to purchase all group session images at a discounted rate or buy individual images as you choose.
Do I get free Digital Files?
Creator team members receive all images from the team sessions as low-resolution files with a watermark to share on social media. High-resolution images and printing rights are available for purchase separately.
When does the Ambassador Program start?
The program typically runs from spring of junior year through graduation. Most group sessions take place during the summer and fall.
is there a minimum number of referrals required?
No. I do ask you to share images online to encourage others to check out my services. While there is no minimum, I do have incentives throughout the year to enable you to earn product credit as well as cash or gift cards.
Can I be a part of this if I have my senior portraits taken somewhere else?
This year only, yes. As long as you have not signed an exclusivity contract with any other photographer.
