First day for three things

Wednesday was the first day of school in Madison County- so I was able to head to a local Middle School and have shoot a little. ALSO PUT TOGETHER THE FIRST EVER VIDEO FOR THE PAPER! It isn't the greatest video but I am hoping to get more involved with that for the paper! AND I wrote the little article that goes with it too :)

 Then later that day I got called to head to a change of plea hearing at the court house. My first time doing that so kinda of nervous to being with then the story is just sad. :/
either way check out my photos and read the articles :)

So I have a job in Richmond, KY

But I am so lucky to be able to do what I love!

Now enjoy some photos from my first day! (I will add more posts about the next days so you aren't overwhelmed in one post :) just looking out for ya)
