Tishy Model Team Featured in Senior Muse Magazine

I’m beyond thrilled to share some exciting news - our very own Tishy Model Team (#TMT) has been featured in Senior Muse Magazine! 🎉

This recognition is such an honor, not just for me as a photographer, but for the incredible students who make up #TMT. Every year, I build my team with purpose. It’s not just about who looks good in front of the camera—it’s about hearts, values, and leadership. These students represent what it means to connect, to inspire, and to make a difference in their schools and communities.

What Makes #TMT Unique

Unlike traditional model programs, #TMT includes students from 8th through 12th grade, making it one of the most diverse and inclusive model teams in the country. Applicants fill out a questionnaire, and one of the most important questions asks when they have made a difference or been impacted by someone else’s kindness. Their answers give me insight into who they are - not just as students, but as humans with empathy and purpose.

This is what sets #TMT apart. It’s not about perfection. It’s about purpose-driven teens who are role models in their own right. They become the faces of Tishy Photography, but more importantly, they become a family to each other.

Why Senior Muse Recognition Matters

Being featured in Senior Muse Magazine is a big deal in the photography industry. It’s a platform that showcases the best in senior and teen portrait photography across the nation. For my team to be recognized among so many talented photographers and models is an incredible testament to the heart and creativity behind what we do.

This feature shines a light on the leadership, confidence, and individuality that every #TMT member brings to the table. It also reinforces our mission to create photography experiences that go beyond the surface - capturing not just smiles, but stories.

The Bigger Picture

At the heart of it all, Tishy Photography is about more than photos. It’s about connection, impact, and celebrating the unique journey of each student. My Model Team embodies that mission. Whether we’re shooting golden-hour sessions, themed team shoots, or working together on community projects, #TMT is a reminder that when you bring the right people together, magic happens.

This magazine feature is proof of what I’ve always believed: when you lead with heart, recognition follows.
