New Locations

We have begun to photograph the class of 2010 over the past week! It has been hot, but we've been having a wonderful time with the seniors. With new ideas and some new locations, we are able to offer a lot of variety in each session. The following are images from a senior photographed on two different days. This is a great option for those who would like to make a big change between sessions, such as changing a hair style from straight to curly. The senior season is off to a fantastic start!

Studio Hop

The Studio Hop was held this past weekend, both Saturday and Sunday, and we really enjoyed participating this year and hope to do it again in the future! New ideas were shared, and many eclaires and cream puffs were consumed. We appreciate those who were able to stop in and visit. It was great meeting new people and visiting with old friends; we hope everyone had as much fun as we did!

Welcome Summer!

Congratulations to the graduating class of 2009!! We hope you enjoy the summer as you make plans for the future. We wish you the best of luck!

We have been busy at the studio with consultations for the seniors of the upcoming class of 2010. We have already begun to photograph as well! We have a new ad, paired with Maurice's, right outside their store in Willmar. The images show new locations and backgrounds we have available this year, as well as some great clothing ideas. A BIG "thank you" to Christa Schmidt for being our model this year!

It's hard to believe we're almost half way through June already; the summer seems to fly by! We hope you are able to relax in the warm weather, spend time with your family and friends, and enjoy the long days of summer!

Studio Hop

Only two weeks until the Studio Hop! We are looking forward to participating this year; it should be a fun weekend. Carlson Studio will have art and landscape photographs for sale, as well as notecards. The Studio Hop (studiohop.org) includes 30 artists from the Willmar, Spicer and New London areas. It will be held Saturday and Sunday, June 20-21. We're busy getting ready and hope to see you then!

























This is an image from a recent session. Kory enjoys coloring, and his books and crayons made awesome props for the images. What a fun idea!!
