2020 was an incredibly stressful year, but that didn't stop the PRO EDU community from stepping up their game and creating amazing photographs.
To cap off the year, we asked our community members to submit and vote on their favorite photographs of 2020, and they did not disappoint! From food photography to fine-art portraits, they shared work that proves how deep the skill and talent runs in the PRO EDU family.
