Thanksgiving break so far..

I have spent the past 3 days of my break at the AP in Washington, D.C. It's been incredible! On Monday, I mostly hung out around the office and got to see how the editors work, which was interesting. Tuesday, I went on an assignment and shadowed AP photographer, Jacquelyn Martin (an RIT grad). I got to assist her, ask lots of questions, and watch how she works. Today, Wednesday, was probably the most exciting for me. I worked at the White House with AP photographers, Charlie Dharapak and Pablo Monsivais, where all three of us photographed President Obama pardoning the turkey. I was a little nervous, but it was extremely cool. I sat in a room inside the White House most of the day, with other photographers in the White House press pool and then getting the chance to actually shoot was amazing.

Mary's Place




Mary's Place is a Refugee Outreach Center located in the Northwest Maplewood area of Rochester, NY. I've been spending some time there working on a multimedia project with one of the volunteers.
