Graduation time is upon us once again. It has been such a great year around here for Johnston Photography Senior Portraits. We met some wonderful seniors from Marion Central, Cary Grove, Prairie Ridge, Crystal Lake South, Crystal Lake Central, Jacobs High School and others including home schooled seniors as well. Johnston Photography brought in some new products and graduation announcement designs. One of our favorites this year was a composit that is slightly different from ones of the past. Here is a sample of one such composite.

Miss Crystal Lake 2012
This Saturday the Miss Crystal Lake and Little Miss Crystal Lake Pageant will be held at Crystal Lake South High School. Johnston Photography has had the honor of being involved with this wonderful event for many years. These girls work very hard to prepare for the pageant. They attend classes once a week and learn about presenting themselves in public. They also attend Crystal Lake Chamber Mixers where they are given the opportunity to meet some of the leaders in our community. Contestants in the past have not only gained self confidence but made some great connections in the Crystal Lake business world. There are 4 titles the girls compete for. Miss Photogenic, Miss Congeniality, First Runner up and Miss Crystal Lake. Miss Crystal Lake will receive a scholarship for her achievement. Miss Congeniality is selected by the contestants themselves, and Miss Photogenic is voted on by all of the people that attend Expo on Saturday before 1. So come on out and pick your favorite, then stay to see the final results!! The pageant starts at 2 in the afternoon. See you there!!

Custom Composites Always Available! {Senior Portraits Crystal Lake}
Senior portraits at Johnston Photography are all about the individual. We offer several pre-designed collages, but they do not always "fit" for clients. When that happens we design a custom collage for them. The client chooses the images and overall size they want, then I get to design it for them. This one for Melissa was based on another designer we offer. Because of the images she selected I had to do a little rearranging to make this work. The finished size is a 12x24 and comes with a simple black frame.
Custom Designs are just one of the many wonderful services we offer at Johnston Photography in Crystal Lake. Can we design a custom product for you? Give us a call! 815-459-1481
