Working with Cole this past Fall was a breath of Fresh air. His family won my photography package at the We Are E.R. Dinner Auction last Spring! The first moment I met Cole he showed up at the Football field, independent of anyone else, with an armload of props and ideas.  *TIP* It's always nice having extra help and a posse of your biggest supporters come along to your photography session, but I've noticed seniors are more at ease  expressing themselves when there are less eyes watching.

As you'll notice Cole climbed up on our beloved bronze Elk mascot, sporting orange and black, a school flag, and crown. It was magical. From here we stopped at places around downtown Elk Rapids and ended at the beach where he wanted to sport his fancy man outfit. 

I'm so happy I had the opportunity to meet Mr. Coleman Schindler. He's been part of so many fantastic theatrical productions in the area, and everyone has something positive to say about him. As stated from another senior I photographed previous, " Cole is going to be President!" - Well there you have it. Now go check out this future POTUS :)
