I’m used to getting close with my couples. I’m used to shaking hands and giving hugs. I’m used to the extrovert, love-bug in myself to bloom every time I’m photographing someone.

Taking portraits and family photos during the time of social distancing and COVID-19 is strange. It’s a weird pressure of character testing and refining of spirit.

Regardless of the distance, I had a blast photographing this family —

and the kids gave me freshly baked chocolate chip cookies.
