  Florist during the pandemic

  John Mello runs a small local flower shop that has been providing flowers to the local community for years. When the pandemic hit, quarantine was a major adjustment for John’s business. Customers who regularly came in for celebratory gifts, flowers prom, and wedding flowers, no longer came in at their usual rate. As a result, John’s business slowed. This flower represents the fragile life of a local business, and how without the consistent type of attention it needs, like water and sunlight, it will die just as quickly as a flower.

  Covid Portraits

  My family hires a photographer once a year to take our family portraits. This year I could not find a photographer due to Covid. I dusted off my good camera and me and my family went to some lavender fields. We took turns taking photos of each-other. I joked that I would Photoshop my husband into one of them but I honestly don't know how to do that and make it look ok still. Our Christmas photo this year will have to be some sort of collage.
