While Photographing the 2009 Rose Bowl game between USC and Penn State, I had the opportunity to meet and chat with ESPN American Journalist Lisa Salters @lisa_salters – She afforded me the opportunity to capture her during the game while sideline reporting. The game brought me full circle from growing up in Pennsylvania to perfecting my craft in Los Angeles.
