SHOP SMALL AND SUPPORT LOCAL
What a year!! It’s been a hard one for everyone, but especially those who run small businesses. I’m really thankful to be a single (no kids), one woman team (other than contractors/second photographers/assists for weddings and shoots) without a brick and mortar location. Some businesses are not as fortunate as I am and have a full team to support, rent to pay, and their own family to provide for. Unfortunately a lot of small businesses weren’t able to survive the first round of lockdowns and with more lockdowns in the foreseeable future, others may not survive. Instead of shopping at big box retailers, support a small business and make sure they survive the pandemic. Here’s a round-up of brands I’ve photographed, personally used, and am excited to try/support this season. If you have any favorites, please send them my way as well!!
