Covid Safe Magazine Cover

Kudos to Rochester Magazine's editors for reading the room.  It was time to publish their annual "Favorite Restaurants" issue and they stopped themselves.  They saw restaurants emerging from the rubble of COVID's direct hit and decided April was too soon - too soon to pit restaurants against one another in a competition for reader votes and too soon to demoralize the people who served with compassion and a smile during the scariest of times.  The editors chose, instead, to lead with a feature about stand-out employees who helped keep area restaurants afloat.  For COVID safety, we photographed the employees without masks in separate studio sessions and merged their photos together in Photoshop.  Eleven hours later...voila!
