Using a webcam for Sr. pics

I don't think this teen would have been a client to any professional photographer in any circumstance. So no, I wouldn't think it would affect professionals. Some people are happy good enough.

Is there something that photographers can learn from the quote from face book?
I believe so.

Why?

You'd be happy with spam if that's all you know until someone gets you a good piece of steak with a merlot.

Until then, you think you ARE eating steak.

Of course no pics. Like I'm going to post a minor's FB pics here? Even if she has made here albums public, I'm just not going to go there.

Totally disagree. Moms and Dads may still opt for a traditional studio portrait, but if this becomes a vogue thing to do you bet it will have an impact. In this case, this young lady's family certainly has the means to afford senior pics.

Sounds like a girl who will be taking your job should she decide to pursue photography.
