In 2007 John Maniaci decided to start volunteering and taking pictures for students at La Follette High School. In 2009, Maniaci started working for UW Health and the hospital encouraged him to continue his project, giving him free days off work to take the pictures, and they encouraged him to expand it to all four Madison schools.
Now dozens of students are able to get their senior pictures taken each year, when they otherwise wouldn’t have been able to.
