This young lady wants a full set of senior portraits done--casual, cap & gown, shots with her '67 Camaro, and lacrosse-themed portraits.

That's when I ran over to a mud puddle, scooped up some mud, and slapped it on her arms, legs, and face. Once she got a better idea of what we were going for, she proceeded to pick up some more mud and wipe it on her jersey too.
