El Observador/Soy una periodista fotografica

The Deseret News publishes a Spanish language newspaper called El Observador de Utah, and I got to shoot my first assignment for them Saturday. It was an interesting experience showing up at a Latino community safety meeting/summer celebration and trying to figure out what was going on. I can read Spanish, but I have a hard time speaking it and understanding people that talk fast. The assignment ended up being really fun once the safety part was over and the celebration began. It will actually be nice to finally use what I learned through four years of Spanish classes!
