A couple weeks ago I photographed Evan's brothers wedding. Evan is heading out to Brazil soon. The shot on the bench reading is a mimic of a photograph I have of my grandfather sitting on a bench reading. I never met my grandfather but he served a three year mission in Argentina for the LDS church. He started the first primary in Argentina and the first foreign exchange program at Utah State University and I believe U of U. What is amazing is that prior to serving in Argentina he was 4 years in World War 2 and aftermath. He has some amazing black and white images that he took from all over the world. He died when my mother was 6 but from what I read we have a lot in common. Evan will have a great experience in Brazil. I wish him luck.
