Last week was week number three of my Pandemic Porch Portraits project.  Each day I visit one or two different family in Willow Glen, where I live, and FROM A VERY SAFE DISTANCE, photograph them on their front porch. All that I ask in return, is that the family make a donation to an organization that is helping people get through the pandemic or to a medical organization.  Participants are able to download their photos and order prints and at the end of the project I will make a book to remember this historic time.

I also began selling face masks imprinted with my photos.  All proceeds from the sales are being donated to a special fund set up to cover ongoing expenses incurred by The Butter Paddle so that we can continue to support the families served by Uplift Families First.  Family, friends and members of our auxiliary have been very generous.  I’ve included a sample of one of the masks.  If you’d like see more, here is the link: https://susan-gutterman.pixels.com/
