The first school in the area was this Desert Center School, which was originally a red-brick schoolhouse built by Steve Ragsdale in the 1940s. Their motto 'Where Children Come First' must of been easy to stand by because the K-8 school had a staff around 2 and averaged 19 students!
I have passed by this school many times in the last 20+ years and always thought it would be a great place to shoot. I was right. After hiking with flip-flops through the hot desert and broken glass to find the music room - it made it all worth it!
...and as promised, I'll be posting some pics from the Elway shoot soon

Dean, the piano shots are my favorite! There's something very beautiful about them, perhaps there is beauty in age after all! I would have loved to have been there. very mysterious place.
