Great News! My Studio is Re-Opening YAY!!!

I have missed working sooooo much and can not wait to get back in the studio and see everyone, just to keep you all posted I have now introduced additional steps to stay in line with Covid-19 Government re-opening guidelines.

In order to stay safe and protect all my clients the following will apply:

Outdoor shoes are to be removed and left outside in a small waterproof space I have.
I have a taped off area in the studio where clients watch the shoot from that is a minimum of 2 meters from where I work.
I have PPE to work with, this includes gloves, face mask and a face shield plus disposable aprons.
I have a cleaning station set up for you to use when you arrive, this includes a spray to spray on your bags and car seat, hand gel for every client to use, and you will be asked to wash your hands and use alcohol gel on arrival.
I will be providing disposable gloves and masks for any client that requires them.
I have a UV light that kills 99.9% Of germs this I use on all non-washable props and items including the furniture you sit on and my mobile phone.
I have LOTS of detol hard and soft spray (Best stuff ever created) I use this on all soft props including props that have just been washed prior to every shoot including all door handles, toilet flush, taps, studio sofas, toilet, backdrops, wraps, hats, and headbands before and after every single shoot.
I will only have 1 family in each day to allow time before and after each client to fully clean my studio
My bathroom has been fitted with a new paper towel dispenser ( I used to wash towels for there each day)
My bathroom also has Alcohol gel in there to use after you wash
My studio bin will be emptied between every client.
I no longer will be providing refreshments until recommended that it is safe to do so and will ask that you bring a bottled drink ad snacks in with you.
I will have a kettle but this can only be used to heat bottles and I no longer will provide the water to make up your bottles.
I have to limit the number of people in the studio and well only now accept anyone that needs to be there to be photographed (Parents of the child to be photographed are permitted)
Anyone with any symptoms will be asked to reschedule your shoot and if it becomes apparent during a shoot someone is unwell you will be asked to finish up the shoot and leave and reschedule to another day.
If I or anyone in my home or anyone I have come into contact with is unwell I will reschedule all shoots for 14 days.

Hope everyone has stayed safe, I've missed you all!

Please dont hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions or concerns.

Your safety and relaxation during my session is the most important thing to me.
