School Photos At My Studio - 3rd & 7th Nov
Who?
For kids under 12 years old who have missed out on school photos this year.
(My sincere apologies to kids over 12. The current DHHS rule is that all persons age 12 and over must wear a mask when away from home, even while being photographed.)
What?
A 'school photo' style shoot.
$50 per child. Includes:
- an online gallery of 5-10 images to choose from,
- one high-resolution digital file of your choice,
- a print pack containing one 8"x10", one 5"x7", one 3.5"x5", one 3.5"x2.5", and four 1.2"x1.7" of your selected photo.
4 backdrop options available: black, white, grey, and light blue.
These will be contact-less shoots, I will wear a mask at all times and photograph your child from at least 1.5m away.
Time allocation is 5 minutes per child, with a 5 minutes gap between every booking to clean and sanitise the studio.
I have completed my COVID-19 Infection Control Training Certificate, and my studio has a COVID Safe Plan in place.
When?
Tuesday 3rd November (Melbourne Cup Day) & Saturday 7th November
ONLY IF we have reached the Covid Re-opening Road Map Third Step, which was estimated to be on 19th October.
Rescheduling and refund options will be made available if we have not reached the 'Third Step' by the 3rd of November.
(According to the roadmap, the 5km travel restriction will be lifted at the third step. https://www.coronavirus.vic.gov.au/coronavirus-covid-19-reopening-roadmap-metro-melbourne)
Where?
At my studio! 16 Stevens Rd. Forest Hill.
Why?
What if the Department of Education changed its mind and school photos are back on?
What's in the print pack?
One 8"x10", one 5"x7", one 3.5"x5", one 3.5"x2.5", and four 1.2"x1.7"
My younger ones are still in kinder, can they sign up?
Yes absolutely! Below are a couple of examples.
Can we get a sibling photo?
Yes, only if time allows.
If the children are age between 4-12, there should be no problems.
If one of the siblings is toddler age or younger, it may be difficult to coax cooperation in such a short time allowance.
I'm planning to launch Christmas Mini Sessions soon, that may be a better option for sibling photos if one of your children is 3 years or younger.
What if I need to reschedule?
Once you have made your booking, you will receive a confirmation email from my online calendar. There is a button on this email that allows you to reschedule to other available session times.
What if myself or my child has cold & flu symptoms?
Please DO NOT COME if anyone in your family has cold & flu symptoms.
A temperature check will be required upon entering the studio.
What I can't come on that day?
A full refund is given if you notify me by email or text minimum of 48 hours before your booked session.
Half refund is given if you have given less than 48 hours notice.
No refunds will be given for no-shows.
What if my child has a scratch on his face? Can you photoshop it out?
I charge $15 per image for removing minor scratches, bruises, small rashes & spots.
If your child has a bandage on his chin or extensive rash across his face that you do not want to see in his photo, please contact me first to see if it's possible to remove them in photoshop.
Does my child have to wear a school uniform?
No, school uniform is not a requirement.
But the style of photography will be the same as school photos, i.e. just the one pose headshot.
If you're after the more playful studio type photo with lots of expressions and variety, my upcoming Christmas Mini Session may be more suitable.
What if I want more than just the one photo?
I will upload 5-10 photos to your online gallery.
You can select your favourite photo of your child for your print pack + digital file that is included in your session fee.
Additional photos can be purchased from your online gallery at $40 per high-resolution digital file, or $50 per digital file + print pack.
Can I jump in for a super quick photo with my child?
Yes if you really want to. But unfortunately, until the mask law is changed, you will have to keep your mask on for the photo.
