Mason Johnson, an 11-year-old from Texas, got a behind-the-scenes experience at the TODAY show during a visit to Rockefeller Plaza. Initially hoping to see anchors, he was thrilled to learn camera skills from photographer Nathan Congleton. With his mom's old camera, Mason engaged with Congleton, who provided guidance on photography techniques. Their day included a friendly interaction with co-host Craig Melvin, who recognized Mason’s potential in photography, stating he represents the future of their show. Mason's artistic photos were even shared online by the TODAY social team, marking an unforgettable experience for the young photographer.

Mason just popped into work mode, like he was showing up to work, and it was just another day at the office.
This is the future of TODAY show photography.
Mason learned some wonderful tricks about photography from Congleton.
