Notre Dame loses to Iowa State in NCAA tournament

I traveled over to Dayton, Ohio last week to photograph Notre Dame’s short-lived appearance in the NCAA tournament. It was my first time shooting the tournament. This week, I’ll be following the Notre Dame women’s basketball team as they attempt to make a third-straight championship game appearance.

Plane crash in South Bend

I spent most of my workday on Monday waiting at the scene of a fatal plane crash on South Bend’s west side. A day earlier the small luxury jet fell out of the sky, hitting a residential neighborhood near the South Bend Regional Airport. Miraculously no one on the ground was killed in the accident. Two people in the jet were killed in the crash.

The jet crashed into a neighborhood near the airport a day earlier, killing two of four on board and injuring two on the ground. (James Brosher/South Bend Tribune)

St. Patrick’s Day in South Bend

Had a busy couple of days covering the city’s St. Patrick’s Day festivities. My schedule consisted of a 4-12 shift followed by a 9-6 meaning I was running on fumes by the end of my shooting on Saturday afternoon. Crazy couple of days, but I would much rather be crazy busy than bored sitting around the office any day.

South Bend Regional Airport

At the airport today looking for photos of passengers, I found a neat new vantage point overlooking an area near the ticket counters.
