This is a photo that a good friend of mine, Katie DiPietro took during a family session where she was required to stay 6ft away and give ten min session breaks for clean up. She called this pose the "social distancing pose"...as you can see my family thought it was very funny. This session was brilliant because for a short moment, we forgot all about the virus. The fear and worry went away and for half an hour, we could enjoy extra time as a family.

Use one-word hashtags (separated by commas) to describe your story. For example: Where did it originate? How does this object make you feel? How does this object relate to the pandemic?
