Express-News Shots of the Week 6/27

The summer continues to be as busy as always and the assignments at the SAEN continue to offer something new every day. It was nice to have a few nature shoots lately. They were really a nice departure form some of the PR events that I've been shooting. I've also met a lot of interesting people that have given me a little more insight into the city and the people that live here. I think I will let the images speak this week, enjoy.
