They were such a pleasure to work with, one of the most animated and loving couples I have ever seen.

Barn Fire
August 12th, 2009
Tuesday morning out Ironwood location lost it’s Big Old Barn to a fire. A sad day for McDonald Studio. It was a historic barn, with hand hewed timbers that was once owned by the Studebakers. We have taken a lot of pictures there over the years and will greatly miss it. Here are a few images from the South Bend Tribune.






And here are a few with the barn and car as a backdrop.
