Abby Tran has left the building

For the last four years, Abby Tran has worked for me as a student photographer and then for the last year, she has worked as a part-time university photographer.  She has been the chief scanner, lighting model, co-teacher, head social media photographer, the fun person in the office and so many other things that I don't have time to mention.

Harding University Photo Services will be forever indebted to her for all the work scanning in the archives.  The 100th anniversary will be a much easier task because of the work she has done. 

Most importantly, she has been my friend and I am going to miss her. 

Thank you, Abby.

Moving forward, the office will be 10 degrees cooler and the music selections will be much less diverse without any groans from the other side of the office.

7:39pm

This is me last week at 7:39pm as I photographed Former First Lady Barbara Bush.  The photo was taken by Assistant University Photographer Abby Tran.
Abby has worked for Communications and Marketing for the last year helping me and working on scanning the archives.  You should check out Abby's blog to see her outstanding photos.

I think it is fun seeing me working although it looks like I am in pain in this photo which I was not.  Anyway here is the image according to the metadata that I shot exactly 1 second after Abby took this photo of me.
