Mount Vernon Football Game photos Fundraiser

Rubicon Photo annouces Mount Vernon Mustang Football Fundraiser.   If you are a fan on Mustang Football here is an opportunity to help raise money for the team expenses and  for you to have memorable images of your player and other hightlights from this season.  The process is simple, but you must hurry to take advantage of this offer.  To be “vested” in the program you must purchase one $50 photo gift card for yourself or as a gift for relatives.  By doing this the team gets 10% of the sale and you get a 10% print bonus toward more photos.  Hurry though you must be vested by the first Home game Sept 3rd. 2010.  You can purchase more cards throughout the season but you must have bought one by the Maquoketa game.

There is a money back gaurantee on these cards.  If you player unfortantely gets injured, weather does not allow us to shoot the games we are planning on, or simply I just don’t get good photos of your player, we will refund your investment. 

You can order the normal reprints like 4×6, 5×7, 8x10s etc, but think beyond that into special digital collages, and printing on all kinds of materials like metal,  gallery mounts, but we can do water bottles, coffee mugs, t-shirts, jig saw puzzels.

Please call us for more details and the photo agreement.

Mt Vernon VBS 2010

Another hot July and another great week at VBS with the kids of Mt Vernon.  This years Groups VBS has me busy taking pictures of the “crews” as they go from station to station, but my primary gig is taking the Spotlight Video during games but that just does not cover it so here  is a link to my first “bonus” feature of photos that show some of the behind the scene set up of VBS  and a few other fun photos. Groups VBS is using SmileBox so I am using that service for these videos.

Cedar Rapids Downtown Farmers Market

It was a fantastic day for another Cedar Rapids Downtown Farmers Market.  It is great to see so many people take advantage of the Market and support local businesses.  I enjoy capturing the Farmers Market for the Downtown District, who coordinate these events, full of entertainment like the Eastern Iowa Brass Band  plus, you can find out information about area non-profits.  The kids seem to have a blast especailly those lucky enough to get a balloon animal from Pappa Ballon–not your run of the mill balloon animals mind you.  Another treat is getting a  now famous “Primo Burrito ” from Victor’s Place , the line for these is long, but moves fast;  Another cool thing about going to the Farmers Markets is running into friends/clients and catching up on news.  Anyways check out some highlight photos of the day.

Congratulations Mt Vernon U14 AYSO Boys Playoff Champs!

Congratulations to the Mt Vernon U14 AYSO Boys for winning the Region 1112 AYSO Playoffs today!  I am sure glad I could stay and watch your final game! You guys play amazing soccer!  It was an exciting 0-0 game! Got to give a shout out to my buddy Matthew for some great defensive plays, loved that slide tackle, and your backward kick that almost looked like a bicycle kick! Congrats to coaches  Neil Rud, and Tom Bootmiller !  While photographically not the best time to take a picture after a hard fought game and ending in the rain, you gotta take it when they are passing out the “shinny” things!  Good Job Guys!

1st Annual Mount Vernon Chocolate Stroll

I volunteered a little time and talent today for the 1st Annual Mount Vernon Chocolate Stroll–thinking optimistically that it will be come a new annual event.  Looks like organizers Trude & Rick Elliott of the First Street Community Center did a great job.  I thought it was a very nice event, and heard great comments while taking the pictures;  a lot of people of all ages enjoying music, art, shopping and of course very tempting FREE chocolate samples!

Check out my Rubicon Photo Facebook page for more photos but here are a few for you to check out the event.

Dance Arts Iowa Memory Mates –bring in the Clowns!

It was a great Saturday working with Ellis and Kaleena from Dance Arts Iowa capturing the Memory Mate Photos for parents.  This year’s recital is a Big Top Circus so there are lots of creative options for their dance costumes.  Here is a sample of some photos, along with the “Funny Faces” photos we take to keep the session fun for the kids.  The kids were awesome to work with, and to me is a testimony for how well Ellis and Kaleena works with their students.
