Cover image & interview with SK & PCC darkroom instructor Mike Riches in PCC Communities Magazine, Fall 2012 Catalog.
Not my favorite picture (do I have a black eye?) & (no, I was not tweezing that graduation print), but hopefully with this, more folks are inspired to take darkroom classes!

Nice article in the catalog! congrats.
Just got this in the mail! You're becoming quite the toast of the town. :)
Great cover photo & article about photography. So crazy I know a PCC cover celebrity!
Thanks ladies! Yeah, the article is all right, not great writing, but I think the sentiment of photography as craft is there. I wouldn't have called my work a "hobby," as was quoted either. Is it funny that the cover story is at the end of the magazine?
There's our girl!
I'm sure it is at the end so everyone will at least look at less important stuff on their way to the main event. The headliner always goes last!
Congratulations!
Your famous!
"The headliner always goes last," very true Jeff. That makes me feel like a rock star.
Thanks for the cheers everyone! There have been a lot of you coming out of the woodwork....what a surprise & how nice it's been to hear from you all.
It's great! You can now add "cover girl" to your resume.
Yes Rebecca! My Unpaid Odd Jobs for a Greater Cause Resume.
And no surprise, PCC didn't give me a parking pass or any free lab time for this publicity. (Some folks were curious if I got anything in exchange.) But then again, I wasn't expecting anything from the community college that charges students & instructors to park in their private lots OR gives ticket warnings for parking on public streets in lieu of those aforementioned lots.
I suppose that's how gigantic, bureaucratic institutions of "higher learning" work. Like companies.
Great photo, nice article & good publicity, one hopes!
Yes, I remain hopeful! More site hits & anonymous comments is what I've noticed so far. Thanks!
You came in the mail! Great article, congratulations.
I checked with the marketing department and they tell me that the plan for this year's buses is to feature the 50 Diamond Alums honored last year during PCC’s 50th Anniversary. In the future, we could decide to use a magazine cover for the buses but for now there are no immediate plans.
Take care and thanks again for your help. I hope you get in contact with a few more people thanks to the magazine article.
I saved this from the mail when I got it. I had to. Great picture!
In the mail, at the library, in coffee shops, campuses, bars, stores, you name it....anywhere local news stuff is found, plus a household circulation of 300,000. Sheesh.
And maybe, I hear, on a bus or two.
Funny.
You helped with the PCC staff shoot! I recognized you right away. You're famous!!!
Are you used to being a cover model yet? I keep seeing you everywhere!
Very sweet, Ellen. I'm too shy to be in front of the camera. Much more comfortable hidden behind one...
See you in the darkroom!
you are famous! i love this. so much that i framed it and hung it over my bed. what?
HA, HA, HA!!!! I love it. Girl, it BETTER be hanging next time I come over for drinks & Candyland. Don't joke.
Next catalog cover: Operation Russia.
Do people come up to you or recognize you from this?
Like folks I don't know? No, that hasn't happened.
However, there have been people I don't know personally who have seen me BEFORE (the ladies at the bead store, PCC staffers, friends of friends) that have subsequently recognized me from the cover and commented to me about it.
