Photographers Using Social Media In my town, there is a few known photographers that put themselves out there on social media and try to attract mainly juniors in high school who need their senior pictures done for their senior year. When I was a junior, I was always seeing the people in the grade above me posting their senior pictures on social media.

My name is Katelyn Valencia, I am a sophomore here at Westfield State University.

I babysat them every week Monda...
