Brand Ambassador Application

As an ambassador, you’ll receive 3 styled photoshoots over 6 months, a customized Appalachian Lens t-shirt, and the opportunity to help promote the brand by tagging @AppalachianLens on social media, referring friends/family, and wearing your shirt.

The total cost for the program is $675. This covers 3 photoshoots and your brand ambassador shirt. Payment is due in full upon entry into the program.

While the photoshoots will be styled and planned around testing out my artistic vision, you’ll have the chance to give input on themes, locations, or general ideas that you feel would be fun or interesting to try. The focus will be on experimenting with new techniques and concepts, so the shoots will be guided by my vision, but I’ll make sure we collaborate to ensure everyone feels comfortable and excited about the process!

Below you'll find a contact form, fill it out and you will be emailed a short application. After reviewing the responses, I’ll contact you if you’re selected to join the program.

You must live within one hour of Decatur, TN, be comfortable in front of the camera, agree to have your photos shared online, and be willing to promote Appalachian Lens through social media and referrals. You must also be willing to schedule all three sessions within 8 months unless otherwise discussed.

All three photoshoots must be completed within 6 months of enrollment. If you don’t complete them, they will be forfeited. Please be prepared to commit to the schedule!

Absolutely! High school Brand Ambassadors must be a junior or senior in McMinn, Meigs, Monroe, or Rhea county Tennessee. Home schoolers are okay! Parents must be the one to inquire.

Absolutely! This program is for everyone, regardless of experience. You don’t need to be a professional model—just someone who’s comfortable in front of the camera and excited to be part of a creative process!

Your photos will primarily be shared on the Appalachian Lens website, social media platforms, and other marketing materials. If you have any concerns, just let me know, and we can discuss how your images will be used.

After you submit your application, I’ll review the responses and reach out to those who are selected for the program. Availability is limited, so not everyone may be chosen.
