In this episode, we bring back a special episode from my previous podcast. We enjoy a conversation with photographer, Skip Jackson. Unfortunately, Skip has since passed away so it is nice to hear his voice and reflect on his stories with him. Anyone who knows this man has always spoken highly of him. He was tough on his students as a professor, but it prepared them to be successful in their careers.
