Front Door Portraits - Covid 19 Style
As the reality of home detention settled in, like a comfy old pair of tracky dacks, we created a wish list of “to do’s”. Not surprisingly it was my list that had the least amount of ticks on it, something to do with my government-issued career as a school teacher and an overwhelming case of inertia most likely caused by the uncertainty of this pandemic.
The girls ticked off many new accomplishments and the one I managed to stick with was a semi impromptu front door portrait series. We had many walks around the block, seeing friends and neighbours behind their fences keen for chats or to share a drink (byo glass obviously). So it seemed only right to take some photos, any excuse really.
It helped keep the portrait photographer in me happy and gave the girls a break from being chased around by me and my canon.
After I took the photos and we discussed the selection I asked everybody what they would like to keep from the whole Covid 19 home isolation experience as we start to wind back the clock, un-distance ourselves and return to a new normal.
Here are my gorgeous friends and neighbours with their profound and funny answers.
