Mask on, Prom Off

Prom was canceled and I thought this would be a good opportunity for another pandemic portrait series. It was run to see the kids being able to dress up. They all said the pictures were more fun than prom would have been anyways. The parents all attended the sessions with the kids and would take their own pictures. They all told me how special this was for them to bring any sort of joy in to the many memories the kids would be missing out on.
