Show Notes:

If you’ve been wondering what senior photography in 2026 is really shaping up to look like - beyond the surface-level chatter and the Instagram guesses - this episode is going to feel like a breath of fresh air. 

I brought together five incredible senior photographers from across the country for a roundtable-style conversation to talk through what they’re actually seeing in their markets: the trends, the shifts, the struggles, and the changes that are coming faster than ever.

We dig into Gen Alpha’s influence, what's losing steam, what today’s seniors and parents really value, how pricing and spending habits are shifting, and the very real challenges photographers are facing as the industry evolves.

 You’ll hear honest insight, relatable experiences, and different perspectives based on region, style, and business model, which is exactly why this episode is so valuable.

Featuring five Elevate members who bring so much experience and wisdom to the table:

  • Stacey Dominici
  • Kelly Hite 
  • Tracy Caffrey 
  • Linda Sobolewski

Whether you’re brand new to senior photography or you’ve been doing this for years, this is the kind of conversation that helps you see the bigger picture ... what’s changing, what’s not, and how to stay relevant without burning yourself out.

Grab your headphones, take notes, and come join the conversation!
