Class of 2009 Still Going

We are well in to photographing the Class of 2010, however it's not too late for the Class of 2009. We did quite a few yearbook headshots that the senior decided to do their full session later on, whether it's to wait for the braces to come off or a sports season that falls later in the year, etc... Now is the perfect time for the Class of '09 to get their graduation announcements and graduation party invitations from us.

Bloomfield Senior

Makayla is one of our senior reps from Bloomfield. We had a cool session in Canandaigua a few weeks ago. I love playing with the over powered strobe to balance with the sun.

Our Economic Stimulus Plan

Your senior year will come whether the economy is good or bad. Don't let poor economic conditions deter you from having the senior portraits you've hoped for. We have a plan that will help ease the financial concerns of having your senior portraits done.

At Chesler Photography, we pride ourselves in offering the highest quality, service and senior portrait experience. We did not want to devalue what we offer because of the economy, however, we do understand that the economy has placed a strain on our clients. We have decided to implement an installment plan to spread out your senior portrait order over the course of a year. Here is how it works. When you place your order, you decide how much you want to put as a down payment and we divide the balance over the next 12 months which will be charged to a credit card on file the first of each month. We will place your order once we receive half of the total amount due. If you need your order sooner rather than later, a larger down payment would be necessary, but that is entirely your choice.

For more details or to book your session, call the studio at 585-393-9242. Visit our new senior website at http://www.cheslerseniors.com.

Fairport Senior

I had the honor of photographing Cindy, a Class of 2010 senior from Fairport this past Friday as one of our senior models. She had such a great personality and I look forward to our second shoot later this summer. We are still seeking a select few seniors for our model rep program. If you're interested, let us know by e-mail or by calling the studio at 585-393-9242.

For the grand slam, we rely on you. Our referral network of satisfied clients is our most valuable asset.

Kick Off

I kicked off the Class of 2010 senior season this weekend with several shoots for our model reps. It will take me a while to edit all of the photos because we've had a lot of engagement sessions as well. Here are a few images from this weekend.
Thanks Emily, the shoot was awesome.

Become A Senior Rep and Earn Cash!!!

We are starting our senior model program for the class of 2010. Here's how it works: Become a rep for Chesler Photography and have your photos taken in February or march. This will allow us to get some of your photos and our marketing materials circulating in the school before school lets out for the summer. You will also receive a second session later in the summer to take advantage of outdoor sessions. You will receive both sessions for free as well as the opportunity to earn cash. When you refer 5 of your friends to Chesler Photography and they complete their sessions, you will receive $100. For every person after the first 5 you will receive an additonal $20 each. Sounds easy doesn't it? It is! Get creative, use the tools at your disposal to spread the word such as text messaging, Facebook, MySpace, etc... Think you're ready for the challenge? Call the studio at 585-393-9242 to get started. We are only accepting a limited number of reps from each school. Don't be left out, call today.

Winter Senior

Who says senior portraits are only done in the summer. I had a great session yesterday with Sarah. She was so much fun to work with. I barely had to give her any direction at all. This was a great session to do after having just come back from the Senior Portrait Artists conference. Usually I'm waiting a few months before my first senior session after the conferences, so this was great to come back and jump right in. Just a note to the Class of 2010. The earlier you come in for your senior portraits, the better the deals are. Help us spread the word in your school and get some really cool things for free, including cash. Take advantage of our senior test shoot to qualify as one of our senior reps. There is no charge for this short session and get a free Facebook photo for your efforts. Call the studio at 585-393-9242 for more details.

Senior Test Shoot

We are in search of several senior reps from each school to help us spread the word. We will be conducting tests shoots over the next few weeks at no charge to find the seniors that will best fit our plans. There is no obligation and each senior will receive a free Facebook photo. If you're interested call the studio at 585-393-9242 and mention the test shoot.
