Stephen Voss, Fourth year student, George Washington University, Spring 2001.
"The experience of interning for John Harrington gave me tremendous insight and daily hands-on experience regarding how a professional photographer can run a successful business through a combination of photographic skill and sound business sense. John's generosity and willingness to spend time explaining the intricacies of both photography and business practices gave me the needed skills as well as the inspiration to pursue a photographic career of my own in the future. "
Most enjoyed - Least enjoyed:
"Accompanying John on shoots was the most enjoyable and interesting part of the internship. Through assisting him at the shoots, and discussing the events afterwards, my photographic knowledge increased exponentially." - "The computer problems were sometimes quite frustrating in that some of them weren't ever resolved (until my last day). "

What I learned:
"Through working with John, I gained real experience in taking photographs, communicating with clients, and doing office work that I learned to be sometimes tedious, but always essential. This photo and business education will undoubtedly prove invaluable in running my own business. "
