Papal Visit to the US

Busy NYC

I was fortunate enough to be able to cover the Pope's visit to the United States. I went with Sarah from the Arch. of N.O. and served as her producer. We went to Washington, DC and then on to NYC to cover all of the papal events. Needless to say, it was a VERY busy trip with all of the shooting and walking we had to do. We hired a photog and an audio op to be with us to shoot interviews, b-roll and Sarah's stand-ups. These guys (Idin and Mike) were absolutely fantastic and we loved working with them. We ended up with great footage and made a great show out of it. In New York, I was able to visit with my brother Gene, his wife Saya and kids Jared, Hana and little Sophiya. We went to lunch on my last day and walked around a bit in Times Square. I wish I could have visited longer, but unfortunately had to also work that day. The pics in this post are the only ones I took during the entire week! No sightseeing for us!
