Being COVID-19 Secure

Picture

As I prepare to start offering photoshoots again, I am putting in place extra precautions to ensure that I provide a clean and safe space for you and your family. I have carried out risk assessments in relation to all my session types, adhering to strict government guidelines. 


ILLNESS POLICY Clients are required to disclose and reschedule their session if their child or anyone coming into the studio has had a fever or any other symptoms such as cough, runny nose or vomiting in the last 24 hours. To reschedule, please contact me as soon as possible. There is no fee to reschedule.

  1. No physical greetings or goodbyes
  2. Masks and gloves will be worn if required by the client

  4. All surfaces are wiped down with disinfectant, including door handles and anything you come into contact with
  5. All floors will be thoroughly mopped and cleaned with bleach

OUTDOOR SESSION
  1. No physical greetings or goodbyes
  2. Masks and gloves will be worn if required by the client
