Photographer Tausha Dickinson knew she had the ability to bring cheer and community to her neighborhood Tywater Crossing, in Franklin, Tennessee, amidst the COVID-19 lockdown that we are all in. Here was her update on Facebook:

β€œFirst of all, let me say that I do take the COVID-19 very seriously and I have been self-quarantined to my house for a week, but I needed a creative outlet, so I posted in my neighborhood group today and gave my neighbors a 5-hour notice that I was going to walk around and wanted to photograph their families (from a VERY safe distance of course!)

I let everyone do their own thing and I absolutely loved capturing these and we all had a good laugh ….”
