In the midst of the Notre Dame football season last year, I completely forgot to post this little in-between moment I shot during a news story in November 2012. I only realized that today as I went through my 2012 photos for contests with my friend Ryan Dorgan. This frame came from an assignment about lactation consulting. I remember getting this assignment the day before Election Day last year, scratching my head and thinking “huh?” After all with a ton of politicians doing their last-second campaigning, one would not think a lactation consulting meeting would be your only assignment of the day. For a guy, I cringed a bit because it can be extremely awkward – for both the photographer and the subject in this case – to roll up to one of these meetings with cameras. It’s a very delicate assignment for sure and tough one to tastefully illustrate for the newspaper. However, I got this little moment towards the end of my time hanging out in the class. Success.
