Around Town 2

Flower shoppers walk around the Garland Nursery right off Hwy 20 around 4 p.m. on Friday, April 17th, where they browse for yard decor and new garden additions for this coming spring. Jenny Creech (left) and Sebastian Heiduschke (right) wander around the nursery, wearing their masks and keeping their distance, while they search for something yellow for their garden. Though the garden has few customers, everyone keeps their distance while making sure their masks are still intact. 

Martha Campbell stays very far away from most of the other customers in the nursery. She’s afraid of anyone coming near her due to the pandemic, but still she came to get her daughter some small plants for her new garden. 

Inside the greenhouses at the Garland Nursery, it feels as if it is 90 degrees. Tired of feeling like I was breaking a sweat, I moved on to see the Bonsai section of the nursery. There was only one woman back here, but she did not want to be photographed so instead I opted for a simple shot from the side.

Marketing In The News Blog Post #2

Marketing In the News: Google Classroom Users Doubled as Quarantines Spread At first glimpse, this article looked like it held all the necessary ingredients to a great marketing story. I chose this subject because it's a current issue and its relevance applies to me, as well as every other student who is dealing with this virus outbreak. While I was scrolling through Bloomberg, I saw several other articles relating to online schooling or Zoom updates. I chose this article because I want to dig deeper and learn more about what's going on behind the scenes of online schooling. I want to see from someone else's perspective. Not my own, and not any other student.     In the last month, Google's performance has skyrocketed (to put it lightly). Due to this virus pandemic, google's software has become a necessity for just about every school district in not only America, but Italy and Indonesia as well.

Photo Story: Mike Dixon

Image
Mike Dixon has been the pastor of Albany Missionary Baptist Church for about 25 years or so. I chose to use him as the subject for my photo story because people really only see him for his pastor role unless they know him quite well. I chose to take this opportunity to get a look into his day-to-day life when he’s not behind the pulpit. When he’s not hunting or hiking or preaching, he is sitting in his chair with his dog at his feet, watching a U of O basketball or football game.  Due to Covid-19, Dixon has been under a lot of stress in the event that he has continuously tried every solution to make it possible for the church to meet. He goes to the building every day and teaches to sets of 10 people for 45 minutes each. He is there from 8am to 7pm every Sunday in order to get through every group of ten people until the church is allowed to meet again in full capacity.  Mike absolutely loves hunting. He hunts all over the place, mainly Eastern Oregon. About three days

Begg’s Tires Free Shoot

(from left to right, Nick Chanaiew, Sean Lambert, Kyle Krause, and Eddie Hernandez) May 11, 2020 Sean Lambert taking a tractor tire off of a rim.

May 11, 2020 My uncle (Eddie Hernandez) is the assistant manager at the Albany Begg’s and he gave me permission to follow his guys around and shoot them during work. It worked out perfectly that it was raining, and even though there were some guys that were pretty upset about the camera being pointed at them, this is by far my favorite assignment.
