Hey everybody!

Instead of sharing something from my Instagram feed, I thought I'd share with you some pictures from a hackathon project that I worked on this week. My team built a clothing lookbook showing off some of the company's most fashionable engineers. I volunteered to be a photographer (gotta practice my portrait-taking skillz, ya know), and I've included some of my favorite images from the shoot after the links below. You can see the full set of photos I took over on my Flickr account.
