2008 DI Show Ski Nationalspermalink One more show ski nationals under our belt marks the coming end of the 2008 show ski season. It's probably a good thing, as this morning's air temperature at the Lake Wazeecha tournament site in Wisconsin Rapids was only 44 degrees! More than one competitor awaited their next act while wet and shivering.
Again this year we were the official photographers at the Indmar Marine Engines Division I Show Ski National Championships. Originally destined to be held at the Rock Aqua Jays site in Janesville, the floods that occurred earlier this year forced a last minute move to Wisconsin Rapids. The Rock Aqua Jays teamed up with the Wisconsin Rapids Aqua Skiers to host a very successful event which featured skiers vying for individual national titles as well as 14 teams competing to be tops in the nation. Our sincere thanks and congratulations go out to each competitor, team, judge and official ... this was a great event! This is the height of the graduation photo season in our studio, so we will balance those sessions with our processing and posting, and proceed as quickly as we can! We'll be publishing the photos in the same order as performed:

D2 Show Ski Nationals Bannerpermalink It was our privilege and pleasure to photograph D2 Show Ski Nationals in Warsaw IN last weekend. As we usually do, we printed and hung a banner with photos of many of the competing teams. This year's banner was requested by nearly a dozen of the attendees. If you're interested in a copy (exact) we will print more. Cost through 9/15 is $60 (a 30% discount). The copy has to be exact (no substitutions) to receive this special price. Custom banners are available and priced by their size. This one is 24"W x 60"H.
![]() The banner is printed onto a durable Polypropylene banner material and then coated for scratch and UV protection. Hung indoors out of direct sunlight it will last years. Outdoors it will last 3-6 months depending on conditions. To place your order please email your request. Include your phone number and mailing address. We'll call you to make arrangements for payment. If you call (262.679.7900) in your order, we may not be available so please leave the same information (as for an email order) on our voice mail and we'll get back to you as soon as possible.

Amazing Weekspermalink It's been weeks since I've been able to blog about anything other than water skiing. While I love the sport and more so its participants, I'm really in love with my portrait work. It is "graduate season" so we've seen several since I last wrote and we had the added treat to meet 3 and a half month old Shae. Here are a selection of the collage samples that I created for each of them. Enjoy!

2008 Wisconsin State Show Ski Tournamentpermalink The Wisconsin Rapids Aqua Skiers and tournament director Maggie Muleski
did an outstanding job of hosting this (the 42nd annual) event. We are
grateful to have been invited and welcomed to the competition. The
skiing was amazing, the stage shows entertaining and most of all the
people - skiers, boat drivers, dock and sound crews, announcers, and
supporters - were a delight! We captured images of it all, so stop back often to see what's been published so far.
(We plan to post the images in the order they were
captured. This is the height of the graduation photo season in our
studio, so we will balance those sessions with our processing and
posting, and proceed as quickly as we can! While waiting for your
team/individual photos, please check out past show ski performances.)

Kathy's Extended Familypermalink I've known Kathy for nearly 2 years. She's an awesome person and a great business woman. Having 3 brothers, parents in Madison and all busy families and lives, it has been difficult to get everyone together for a portrait. Today, finally, they were all in our studio. They are a lively bunch and the session was fun. Thanks Kathy and family for a wonderful morning!
This montage may be a bit more unusual than the adults will appreciate, however, the "boys" will probably appreciate it.... ![]() Thanks for sharing your morning (and the cook-out after)! |
