PJ Love - John White



















I had recently attended a seminar celebrating 30 years of photojournalism instruction from the most influential photography teacher in Chicago.  How amazing to be in a room filled with so many people sharing the same passion for photography!

John White has touched so many of our hearts and lives, he has made his fingerprint in PJ photography in Chicago.  The number of students he has taught over the past 30 years is amazing.  Many of us have become professional photographers and photojournalists at some of the top newspapers in the country.  It was an amazing experience to see so many of his students in one place sharing stories and successes.  It was also inspiring to hear John lecture once again.  

 Thank you John White for everything you have given all of us!!
