Front Steps Project - Life is not canceled
We are in Queens, NYC, the epicenter of the epicenter for COVID 19 infection. It has been scary, hard, monotonous and desperate at times. So being a photographer, with hands itching to document this time in some way, I chose to do a study of JOY instead. Families are surviving, parents are multitasking, kids are, at best, confused but life is NOT canceled.
Following were taken from more than 6 feet away and I was in a mask the whole time. What a strange feeling having to meet your clients in a mask and then disinfect all the equipment... these are different times. Hope these snapshots bring a smile to the viewers and are an interesting memento for the kids to show in history class years from now.
Family time is not canceled
Joy is not canceled
Bonding is not canceled
Heroism is not canceled
Multitasking is not canceled
Birthdays are not canceled
Mothering is not canceled
Silliness is not canceled
THANK YOU!
Beautiful faces behind the masks
With YOUR help, during the run of my fundraising project, I have raised over a thousand dollars to support a local food pantry for the COVID affected. Most food pantries are still running desperately low on supplies for families in need, so please donate if you are able. We need to come together and help now, more than ever before!
