LOCKDOWN

#FrontStepProject

A

n idea described as a “coffee moment idea” between Boston photographer Cara Soulia and her friend Kristin Collins has gone global and resonated with Inverness photographer Alison White. The #front steps project was kicked off in Needham, MA and has spread across the globe and has been far more welcome than the other thing spreading globally. During lockdown this has been giving a little joy to many across our communities throughout the North East. Alison White Photography Inverness started it off having related to the sentiment expressed by Cara Soulia. Alison like many other photographers had suddenly found her diary wiped clean and wanted to “do something to help us remember these unprecedented times and also support MFR Cash for Kids”. Alison has been joined by many more photographers across the Highlands and Moray who have given their time and expertise to offer families short front step photo sessions, all done with social distancing rules adhered to. All they are asked to do is donate to MFR Cash for Kids in most cases and in Aberdeenshire Christie is raising funds for Charlie House and Willows Animal Sanctuary. Here we are featuring only a few of the fabulous pictures taken by seven of the photographers who operate within the distribution area of Lifestyle.
