Through all the creative blocks and life obligations that have come up throughout the years, I never spent as much time not shooting as in 2020 - the year of the COVID pandemic. Spending the bulk of the year in strict isolation, when I did finally return to photographing, it was only one model. We both masked up, maintained distance by staying on opposite sides of the mirror, and kept the shoots relatively short. Incorporating the ubiquitous face mask was a challenge, but also invited the integration of colored drapes and cloths as a graphic element.
