Yesterday was the last day Tim and I spent in the prison and it was bittersweet. This summer was incredibly intense as we tried to spend as much time as we could there but I also enjoyed every day there.
I am also going to miss the guys. I have to admit there are some guys I am so glad I have photos of — not only for my project but so I can remember their smile.
I am hoping that the documentary on mental illness can be produced by the end of next summer. I have tried to be diligent and capture my video as I go but I still have about 30 hours ahead of me. As you can tell, we have a lot of tapes between the two projects.


Tim Gruber and Jenn Ackerman use both photography and video to tell stories for editorial and commercial clients.
Dear Ms. Ackerman,
I really like your project and would love to subscribe to your blog. Is that possible?
Sincerely,
Vera Schoepe
