Morgan Mosiman Photography: November 2009

I was beginning to think this session would never become a reality. We had planned, in the spring, to take Darren's senior portraits in the peak of fall color. Once the color came to the valley so did the wind, COLD temperatures, rain and even snow! We would talk in the morning only to have it be raining once school was out for the day. A couple weeks ago we decided we would just do the session to make sure there were still leaves on the trees and we could still be outside. We were all pleasantly surprised when it was time for the session and it was warm and even sunny outside.

We began the session at Stillwater Country Club it was the perfect location! Darren is on the Stillwater Golf Team so we started with some practice and on the putting green.

and then tried our hand with synchronized golfing with Darren's boss from the Country Club. Shawn, thanks for taking a few minutes out of your day to get these fun photos!

We put the clubs away and took a cart out on the course looking for locations. The evening sun was perfect everywhere we went on the course!

After our time at the golf course we headed down by the St. Croix River to get some pictures of Darren and his bow.

To our delight the colors at the river were spectacular!! I absolutely love this photo!

We worked until we didn't have any light left to shoot i. By the end of the session Darren said he really actually enjoyed getting his senior pictures done, something he hadn't been looking forward too, and was glad I wasn't the crabby old photographer he was expecting! I had to laugh at this comment (most photographers I know don't fit this description) and was also glad his experience was better than he expected!
