Society’s beauty standards, driven by media and advertising, often feed our insecurities. The Project Beauty Challenge, now in its 7th year, encourages our 2025 Senior Rep Team to embrace their natural selves by being photographed without makeup or edits. This initiative promotes the idea of true beauty beyond societal pressures and superficial ideals.

Multiple sessions allow for a deeper, more complete portrayal of who they are.

As summer turns to fall, Seniors embrace their “Senior Era,” relishing a year filled with bittersweet emotions and memorable milestones.
