When COVID-19 lockdowns started closing businesses and obliging everyone to shelter in place in their homes, we watched our studio’s appointment calendar almost completely clear out. And when the governor ordered “non-essential” businesses to shutter their doors, it …

Can we talk about how hard it was to choose only a handful of photos for our annual “favorite shots” collection of 2019? Because it literally took hours to widdle it down from hundreds to just about 30. HUNDREDS. We met SO many awesome people and got so many…
