Happy Halloween!

If you've got a sweet tooth, but are too old to go out trick-or-treating, as I am, I've got just what you need. Last month, a friend and fellow former-Columbian, Parker Eshelman, called me up and asked me to photograph the new Mars factory in Topeka, Kan. To say that it was a fun assignment, would be an understatement. I was a little worried that factory photos would be a bit flat, but the new facility was beautiful and full of colorful, fun features. I even got to eat a warm Snickers bar straight off the line. NOM.
