DePaul is basically a model

DePaul is one of my favorite study abroad students EVER. I worked closely with him while he was applying to study in Barcelona which was a place he had always dreamed of going. It's helping students like him achieve their goals (and getting to live vicariously through them on their travels) that makes my job in Education Abroad so great.

DePaul is now working on his MFA in Reno, Nevada and doing some really incredible things. He has the best personality and smile - I mean, just look at these pictures! So amazingly photogenic. I'm so, so glad he was back in town so we could go out shooting together. He offered to model for me so we worked out a deal where we would take pictures for each other for our own business websites. It was really hard to be on the other side of the camera when he was taking my photos. More about that in another blog post but I definitely learned a lot from this session.
