The Summer before Senior year is the theme or “vibe” for the EMP Summer Class of 2025 Senior Rep Team!
I’m so excited to launch this program & offer within the Greater Houston, Texas area. If you’re new here or are the parent to an upcoming high school senior & are curious to know the details of everything, then I’m here to help you!
What is a Senior Rep Team?
The easiest why to describe what a senior rep team is simply a spokesmodel team representing a senior portrait photographer.
This is a group of high school senior girls all around the Greater Houston, Texas area that are all a part of the high school graduating Class of 2025. This is a great way for seniors to document their senior year, come together get to know each other, & celebrate their accomplishments!
A bit about me, Emily O’Neil!
I’m the owner & photographer behind Emily Marie Photography LLC; also known as EMP Seniors & EMP Love Stories on social media. I started my journey in photography back in 2018 during my own senior year of high school. I’ve always loved Pinterest & seeing the art people can create. Plus, I’ve always loved taking pictures, so being able to document others & creating beautiful scenes inspired me! I saved up my money & bought my first DSLR camera, which lead me to asking my friends to do photoshoots with me. Soon enough I was photographing all my friends senior pictures & I decided why not launch my first ever EMP Senior Rep Team, so I did just that for the Class of 2019. Since then, I’ve been able to build my portfolio in High School Senior & Collage Graduate Portraits, Weddings, Families, Couples, Events, & so many other beautiful milestones!
I’ve been a full time photographer since 2022, traveling has become my second home & photography has allowed me to do so, sometimes I have to pinch myself because life feels like a dream! I’m currently based out of Magnolia, Texas & have been planning & pursuing all my passion projects, The Summer before Senior Year has been in my brain brewing since last Fall, so I’m so beyond excited to be in a place where I can make it all come to life!
In the past I’ve done my senior rep teams for the entire school year duration, however this year I’ll be changing it up! I’ll be curating the group session themes & keeping the program duration within a shorter timeline, I want to it flexible for everyone involved; where everyone that wants to be a part of the EMP Senior Rep Team has the opportunity to AND you don’t have to commit to the full year! I know as a high school senior it can be BUSY!! Plus, I’m a real human too & this just works better for me!
