I shot this job with assistant and terrific young photographer, Jake Lyle. We set up in the a student lounge/commons area. The idea was to capture Pat and her two student mentorees just having a casual conversation. Jake did a great job of keeping all the lights standing and taping down cords. We didn't lose any equipment and thankfully, no one tripped on any cords...we're really serious about safety on shoots, especially in high-traffic areas. I used a long telephoto lens and crouched way across the room (next to the xerox machine) to get this shot. I love the spontaneity of it.
