JOIN US FOR A SPECIAL MEET UP ON APRIL 5TH FROM 2-4PM |
Being on the LMCP team, you do more than just take gorgeous photos! Along with doing your own Posh Teen photo session, we create a community of fellow high schoolers in a 100 mile radius of Sacramento who support one another. We provide opportunities to socialize, host group photoshoots, and learn fun skills!
Here is a quick breakdown of some perks that LMCP team members get BEYOND their individual purchased session!
STYLED PHOTOSHOOTS
Exclusive opportunities to participate in themed, editorial, and magazine-style photoshoots with LMCP - We have our welcome shoot all planned, we just need YOU to join us!
GETTING PUBLISHED
LMCP Models (teen and seniors) will have the chance to be featured in national and international publications
LEARN NEW SKILLS
Every year our teams work with local experts in various ways!
In the past LMCP Team Meetups have included the following:
CRAFT NIGHT
IMPROV TEAM BUILDING
SELF DEFENSE CLASSES
HAIR STYLING & MAKEUP CLASSES
AND MORE...
COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
We always pick a project each year for our teams to give back to our community. For example, you can participate in food drives, animal shelter supply funds, and social media blasts for adoptable animals, packing supplies for troops overseas, baking cookies for firefighters, collected school supplies for underserved communities, participated in a local environmental cleanup and we did a blanket/goods drive for the homeless. We believe in instilling empathy and kindness and our hope is to continue and expand what we can do for the community as a team!
SOCIALIZE & MAKE FRIENDS FOR LIFE
Pizza parties, Ice Cream Socials, Vision Board Day, Cookie Decorating, Pool Party, and of course GROUP SHOOTS! These are a few of the fun hangouts we've done in the past!!!! Pending availability we make these fun, non-photoshoot activities available for our teams to further bond and cultivate connections through our program.
DISCOUNTED ADDITIONAL SESSIONS & PRODUCTS
Want more sessions beyond your individual session, group sessions, and themed shoots?
All additional sessions - ie: Family, BFF, Studio Exclusive, etc are discounted during your time on LMCP! (This goes for all members of the family, not just exclusively for your teen on the team.)

But wait, there’s even MORE exciting news:
For an additional fee LMCP team members are offered an additional photoshoot as an extra option for those on the team who have a serious interest in pursuing modeling industry as a potential career.
Although there is NO MODELING EXPERIENCE IS REQUIRED, you should feel comfortable in front of the camera and should be interested in fashion and trying something new. As an LMCP spokesmodel, we are here to boost your growing confidence and show you the beauty you possess inside and out!
As an LMCP spokesmodel, you will have modeling opportunities with professional hair and makeup options AND get styled by Lacey for shoots outside of your Teen Portraits. Those shoots are your chance to really try something outside the box!
Just a few of the Perks of being on our Teen Team:
You will connect with new people from different schools and make friends for life! I have worked with spokesmodel teams since the Class of 2014! It has grown and changed in the past 11 years into an amazing opportunity that is a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
When you are on the LMCP team you can add this experience to resumes & college applications, standing out among other applicants. My goal is to improve and enrich your high school experience! As you will see, being a part of this group will add to the wonderful memories you have, but you will also have access to a group of driven young people you can turn to when you need them!
After you apply, applications will be reviewed and applicants will be chosen based on a number of factors!
Everyone on the LMCP Team is required to have booked a full portrait session with Lacey M. Carroll Photography.
Once you’ve been accepted, in order to secure a spot on the team and a shoot date there is a session retainer required, which will be applied as a credit towards your session. Session upgrades, print collections, digital collections, and all photo products are sold separately. In the end, a typical LMCP Spokesmodel’s family invests anywhere from $2000-$6000 after print and digital products are purchased. LMCP team members may be required to pay for hair & makeup on the additional shoots at a discounted rate. Furthermore, although wardrobe is provided occasionally, you may also be asked to bring items from home or purchase items for your shoots, and/or paint your nails or get a manicure/pedicure in preparation for your photos. These services are required for themed and editorial shoots.
I work with all of my team models to ensure they have the right looks for each shoot!
Don’t Forget:
All applicants who are accepted will get an opportunity to participate in 2 additional photoshoots, and some fun activities throughout the year for the price of a regular Posh Teen session!!!
IS THE MODEL TEAM FREE?
Only clients that agree to purchase Top-Tier sessions and Top-Tier product package with LMCP will be considered.
For Teens (Class of 2027-2029) the photoshoot fee is APPROX $1700+tax* . However, you will be provided opportunities to participate in 2 themed shoots which is an over $1500 value on top of your session!
You will also be expected to purchase one additional HMUA for the end of season editorial shoot*.
**All HMUA packages not included in final price
DO YOU OFFER PAYMENT PLANS?
Yes, I offer payment plans! However, there is an extra cost to cover the multiple service fees. Please speak to me individually to figure out the plan that works best for you. We can do up to 4 payments! The payment must be paid in full before your individual session date, but you can still participate in group and themed shoots before then.
IS EVERY PHOTOSHOOT STYLED + INCLUDES HAIR & MAKEUP?
No, not all of them. We will have several styled photoshoots and some shoots will include HMUA however most will not. I want this year to reflect who YOU are as an individual, so bringing pieces of outfits from home is important! I have an extensive closet all LMCP spokesmodels are welcome to borrow from and/or look through to add to their looks and I try to provide accessories as well. The hair and makeup team must be compensated for their time during the editorial session at the end of the season. All spokesmodels will be provided with this information.
HOW MANY SPOKESMODELS DO YOU ACCEPT?
I’ll be accepting up to 10 spokesmodels for each team. I’m doing things a little differently this year. I want to have a smaller team, however, I typically only accept 1-2 from each school/studio/team so scheduling can be fair. I also love it when friends are able to join together, so make sure to invite them!
DO WE HAVE TO KNOW HOW TO MODEL?
ABSOLUTELY NOT! I have had clients who have never been in front of a professional camera before and others who are old pros! As long as you’re willing to have fun, take direction and show up, you are a spokesmodel! This isn’t just about taking gorgeous photos, this is a program for young people to feel like they can shine and be seen!
