I always appreciate the opportunity to photograph something outside the norm, and shooting a tour of the new James cancer hospital at OSU while it’s still under construction is certainly outside the norm. We are extremely lucky to have The James in Columbus and the new facility will be truly amazing.
Over Alumni Weekend at OSU, I was asked to photograph a number of festivities planned for The Ohio State University’s College of Nursing. I started with a tour of the college with members of the class of 1962, stopped in at a nutrition class, listened in/photographed the State of the College Address given by the dynamic dean, Bernadette Melnyk, and finished up the day with the reunion held at the Faculty Club. The next day, I met up with the group at Newton Hall for a tailgate prior to the big game against Nebraska. In addition to food, music, a caricature artist, and prizes, we were paid a visit by Brutus Buckeye and the football cheerleaders. Top that off with a great and decisive win over the Huskers, and it was a great weekend to be a Buckeye!
Heather and Matt’s September wedding and reception were held at The Columbus Athenaeum, one of my favorite venues in town. They had a Dr. Who theme, complete with top hats, character tables and a police box for cards. And the very best part of their wedding was the love of Heather and Matt and of their family and friends for them. What a great, fun day! Nothing makes a photographer’s job better than a bunch of happy, fun-loving people having a great time!
