Photographer Kristi Mitchell arranges Wild Rose business owners Monica Zanetti, Jeremy Reed and their children Nicholas and Jackie on a bench in front of their store on South Sixth Street in Springfield, Ill., Thursday, May 7, 2020.

Mitchell is photographing one small business a day to bring attention to how they've been affected by the COVID-19 related business closures. (Ted Schurter/The State Journal-Register via AP)
