Covid 19 Shoot Guidelines

Planning

We’re always committed to ensuring everyone is safe on set which now encompasses working under new Covid 19 guidelines complied by the APA and the AOP. They’re a series of practical steps we incorporate into every shoot, from creative planning, casting in preproduction all the way through to completion.

Every day and every project is different which is why we love what we do. These guidelines ensure that we’re well equipped to adapt and plan so that we can accommodate your needs.

Teamwork

It’s our responsibility to ensure that everyone involved on the project is safe and it’s working collectively a team that gets us there.

On Set

We incorporate several practical measures on set including:

• Health monitoring before and during shoot

• Staggered call times

• Regular cleaning

• Working with a minimum number of crew on set

• Observing a distance of 2m on set where possible

• Appropriate use of PPE

Since the pandemic all our photographers have been involved on shoots where our clients work remotely and view a live stream of the shoot. It’s an effective way of ensuring clients are involved and have direct input whilst reducing the number of people on set.
