A behind-the-scenes photo looking over an audio mixer during an interview at the Iowa State Fair.
This past August I spent a fantastic couple days at the Iowa State Fair working on this story for CBS Sunday Morning showcasing artists and their works heading to the Smithsonian. Wonderful shoot, wonderful story!

Blue Ghost lander on the Moon, sending and image of its own long shadow, with Earth hanging in the sky.
Blue Ghost is on the Moon!
Images are coming in now from what appears to be the first fully successful commercial lunar lander.
Over the next 2 weeks, it will drill, study lunar dust, and observe an eclipse of the Sun...by the Earth. π§ͺπ

Photograph taken from the floor of Carver Hawkeye Arena as a banner of Caitlin Clark's #22 jersey is lifted towards the ceiling of the arena, retiring her number. A photographer is on the left side of the frame recording the event.
Awesome time being back in Iowa City for ESPN this past weekend to see #22 go up into the rafters, and a great game too! ππ€π§

Sen. Joe Lieberman speaks with Sen. John McCain during a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing in 2009.
Sad to hear of Joe Lieberman's passing this week. I have many fond memories covering him on the campaign trail and Capitol Hill, especially Senate Armed Services hearings with Sen. McCain. Miss those days for many reasons...
