As we come out of Lockdown restrictions, great School and Nursery photographs have become more in demand than ever:

Whilst the Government have removed all but the most basic restrictions at time of writing, we understand that Schools and Nurseries continue to ensure careful management of visitors and that their risk assessments will vary from setting to setting. We also understand that everyone's comfort levels are different, and that's why we continue to offer a fully Covid Secure photo day, should that be your preferred way of working.

Luckily for us, we are legally able to revert back to our old, more usual methods of working, with social distancing no longer required, we can interact better with children again and get the best from them. However we understand that not everyone is ready to return to 'business as usual' and that's why we continue to be able to offer safe solutions to deliver great photographs in Schools and Nurseries. Over the past year, parents have been in touch to tell us how grateful they are for their children's School and Nursery photographs. They've been able to share important moments with family members who've not seen one another for a long time, captured a moment in their child's life, and given the kids a slice of 'normality' in an otherwise far from normal time.

Whether your School or Nursery needs photos for Fundraising, for Class groups, Leaver's photos or even fundraising options that don't include photography, we can help! Here are some ways we have re-invented School photography for the Covid era! All these options remain available should you wish.

 The Covid Secure Outdoor Studio

Covid secure means photographing at 2m distance at all times. For smaller settings who don't have the space, for those who don't want contractors in the building, or those who cannot provide a ventilated indoor space... our Outdoor Studio is the perfect solution.
Studio style photos taken outdoors whatever the weather. We challenge you to spot the difference!

 SEE IT IN ACTION

 Virtual Group Photographs

Traditional Group photos are still a possibility during Covid, so long as your classes are bubbled appropriately. However if you decide the risk is too high, then we can offer several alternative solutions by editing together individual portrait photos to create a unique and fun group image for Parents to treasure!
We've a host of options available for your Covid Secure Group photos, so take a look...
