SAfety is my number one priority

It's 2024, and we're pretty well past this, but if you have an immunocompromised family member,
I'm still happy to accommodate with any of the below options. :)

Socially distanced outdoor sessions have been a HUGE success since May 1st.  
Please let me know your level of comfort ahead of time or when we meet.
I can wear a mask the whole time -
OR - wear a mask when we're walking and setting up, but take it off to get smiles - 
OR - not wear a mask but maintain 6+ feet of distance.
I can not touch your children at all
OR - pose them as usual.
​
PLEASE NOTE:
​If anyone is feeling unwell the day of the session or has had fever or symptoms, following CDC guidelines, we will reschedule.

UPDATE: 
As of 3/2021, my husband was fully vaccinated, and as of 4/2021, I was fully vaccinated.  :)

• We will remain 6+ feet apart at all times.
• I will use a long lens to accommodate the distance.
• I will wear a mask, unless it scares the children.  If it scares them, I will move further away, and remove it, with your permission.
• I will instruct you in posing yourself and your children.  These will be hands-off.  I am 100% sure you can be the best assistant I've ever had!! 
• I will bring minimal props, if requested, which I will disinfect in front of you.  You are welcome to bring props from home - you'd be surprised how many awesome, personal ways you have to customize your portraits! 

• These are lifestyle type photos in your home.
• We will remain 6+ feet apart at all times.
• I will use a long lens.
• I will wear a mask.
• I will sanitize my hands as soon as I have my equipment out and am ready to begin.
• I will instruct you in posing yourself and your baby.  These will be more natural poses.  
• I can bring freshly washed/disinfected props, if you wish, or we can stick with things you have in your home.

• I will disinfect as much as I can in the studio, but especially any blankets or props we will be using.
• Shoes will be removed at the door.
• Masks will be worn, if at all possible.
• We will do our best to remain 6+ feet apart.  
• You will be come my awesome posing assistant!
• We will all use hand sanitizer before beginning.
• If the mask scares your child, I will move further away and remove it, with your permission.
• I will allow time between sessions to re-disinfect, possibly only taking one session a day.
• We will remain in the studio.  
• If at all possible, only bring those who are being photographed.

• If you combine the distanced outdoor sessions and the no-touch newborn sessions, this is what you get. 
• I am happy to bring posing items to disinfect in front of you and use with your baby.
• I have many pose ideas for outside, and know the parks with the best backgrounds.

• Take this opportunity to create memories in your outdoor space!
• We can re-create your "Stay-at-Home" look on the porch to add to your family album.
• Otherwise, these are just like distanced outdoor sessions, but there will be no concern about other park-goers.

• These are unprecedented times.  Things are ever-changing.  As such, we will change, as well.
• Right now, these things seem like they will work.  If I find that they are not, or if the CDC makes new recommendations, we will go with the flow.
• There will be NO rescheduling fees during this time.  If you have ANY reason to cancel a session, do it.  Family health is of utmost importance - both yours and mine.
• If you have ideas or suggestions on new ways to keep capturing memories during this time, I would LOVE to hear them!
• One last note - touchless pre-payment online or via apps is preferable at this time.
