PictureMy Senior Headshot
​by Skip Cohen

It's graduation season, and I'm always amazed by what kids graduating today have for their senior portrait versus when I was a kid. (This is where Scott Bourne would make a crack about Matthew Brady doing my senior shot!) Every senior headshot was the same: black and white and boring. There was no capture of anyone's personality, and it was not something you'd share except with wallet-size photos. But the excitement of graduating and starting a new chapter in your life was the same.

Well, today, whether you're a full-time senior photographer or portrait artist, graduation season is a time for creativity and exceeding client expectations. 

To start, think about what kids have gone through to make it to graduation today. They all had to deal with the pandemic, worrying or more tragically dealing with school shootings, politics, and simply watching the world run amuck! Graduation becomes even more special and a time of pride and celebration.

Yes, I'm essentially doing a post that's an infomercial, but if you've followed my blog over the years, I don't share anything that doesn't make sense to help you grow your business or your skill set. If you're hoping to go after the senior market and beyond to graduation, then let's get you the very best products.

I'm a big fan of grad cards, and Marathon's offering them on a BOGO program right now, with half off. That gives you an advantage in decreasing costs and increasing margins. And you've got so much to choose from. When you click on the banner below, you can check out the program for yourself. There are 64 different basic templates, and within each collection, tools to enhance your creativity abound! I've included a screenshot of the first twelve below.

Here's my point - everyone is looking for ways to grow their business and increase revenue. Grad cards are a way to produce something special and secure your role in helping students and families celebrate what's typically the first major achievement of so many of today's kids.
