It’s been a wild senior season so far. We are still scheduling appointments for senior pictures. The days are shorter but there is a better selection of times available…and there is no snow yet.

Check out this cool wall portrait that ElizaBeth designed just for Chris.

Mom just stopped by and picked up this 16×20 wall composite of Brandon.

We met Holly and her mom in Brookings at McCory Gardens in Brookings a few weeks ago to start her senior portrait session. It was a brisk morning, but we still had lots of fun exploring the bright fall colors. We checked out some back alleys downtown before heading back to the studio in Rutland.

We are excited for the upcoming basketball season and can’t wait to watch Holly and the rest of the Lady Bulldogs try to repeat last year’s successes.

Check out a few of Holly’s favorites below.

We missed getting Heather’s images posted onto our blog. Here are a few of her favorites from her senior portrait session at Black Studios.

Brandon is part of the Madison Bulldog football team and throws discus in track. We had a lot of fun with the sports pictures for Brandon during his senior portrait session at Black Studios. Here are a few of his favorites.

Some days you just can’t win. Chris is pretty sure of himself. Being the competitive type, I always try to get the kids to smile by challenging them to a pushup contest or run from first base to the fence when we are taking baseball pictures. I’ve been training at the Community Center for over three years and I’ve found brief glimpses of speed every now and then. I figured he could be fast, but he could be that fast. My ego wrote another check my body could not cash. You guessed it: I challenged Chris to a little half block race. My sleep-deprived brain had forgotten an important piece of information from last Spring when Chris had won the Gold Medal for the 400 meters at the State Track Meet.

What happened? You guessed it: EPIC FAILURE! After Chris blew past me, I suddenly felt my mortality and then next morning I felt other things…bad things. What was I thinking?!?!

Red Green was right when he said guys get into the most trouble when they say “Watch this!”

You can check out Chris in action this Friday as the Madison Bulldogs travel to Milbank.

Chris came with Mom and Dad last night to the studio. Here are a few of their favorites they picked out.

Here’s a fun senior magnet for Taylor.

Check out Hanna’s Rave Book!

See if you can figure out how to turn the pages.
