The College, the Professor, and the Magazine

Recently, we worked with the editor of a new Australian magazine, Inside HR. We took some photos of Peter Capelli, the Professor of Management at The Wharton School and Director of Wharton's Center for Human Resources. These photos took place in the University of Pennsylvania's newest building, Jon M. Huntsman Hall, where we were lucky enough to be the first photographers to take pictures in the newest display of architectural genius.

Pick of the Week: Family

After everything is said and done, friends and family is the only thing we truly have in this world. One of us lost a family member this week, and all we can really do is send our condolences. This week's theme is family, in honor of all of the loved ones that we have lost throughout our lives. Let us rejoice for the members that are still around today, and keep our thoughts with those that are gone.
