Sharing Wisdom with Rochester College Students Alongside On The Wings of Angels

Last week, our team had the privilege of joining JoJo Dries and the On The Wings of Angels organization for a powerful panel discussion at Rochester College. The event, hosted through On The Wings of Angels, brought together young adults eager to learn, grow, and connect - and we were honored to be part of that conversation.

The discussion centered around the importance of domestic violence awareness and how engaging with a nonprofit can bring both professional growth and personal fulfillment. The room was filled with energy, openness, and genuine curiosity - and we felt deeply connected to the students through their engagement and thoughtful questions.

Alongside JoJo Dries and the On The Wings of Angels team, Leo also touched around life’s uncertainties - how, just like a movie, it wouldn’t be exciting if we already knew the ending. We talked with students about embracing the unknown, trusting their journey, and understanding that their value isn’t defined by experience but by who they are and what they bring to the table.

While photography and videography will always be at the core of what we do, opportunities like this remind us that storytelling isn’t limited to what’s behind the camera. Sharing experiences, encouraging others, and creating space for conversation are just as meaningful. Speaking to students about purpose and perspective felt like a natural extension of the work we love - helping people see the value in their own story.

This panel was more than just a discussion; it was a moment of reflection and growth - not just for the students, but for us as well. Moments like these remind our team why we do what we do: to connect, to inspire, and to make an impact beyond the lens.
