“Wedding photographers find themselves in a tight spot. They need to shoot weddings in order to make a living, but that means consistently spending time in large groups.”

This quote right here sums up for my he grotesque failure of America when it comes to handling this pandemic. The fact that we’re forcing people to go out there in order to survive because we’ve been so stingy with relief checks is horrible. These photogs wouldn’t need to worry about walking into these mine fields at all if they weren’t under the gun of financial ruin. Thanks, McConnell.
