September 22, 2020Capturing Memories, Celebrating Achievements: 2023 Prestige Photography Scholarship Recipients
Prestige Photography by Lifetouch understands the power of photography and its significance, especially during pivotal moments like senior year. We capture each graduate’s first greatest achievement and ensure this milestone moment is as important and unforgettable as they are.
To celebrate and give back to the communities we serve, Prestige Photography by Lifetouch formed a scholarship program for high school graduates, creating an opportunity for them to continue their journey of education and self-discovery.
The Prestige Photography Scholarship is a prestigious program that invites graduates who have been photographed by Prestige Photography to apply for a chance to win a $1,000 scholarship. The application process is simple; all they need to do is submit a one-page formal essay that delves into the topic: "What does your 12th grade year mean to you, and how can Prestige Photography help celebrate your achievements?"
This year's scholarship winners truly embodied the spirit of the program, with their heartfelt essays capturing the essence of their 12th grade year and the impact of Prestige Photography on their lives.
